Initiation
Smith Kroeger begins every project/campaign with a discovery meeting with our client’s marketing team. In this meeting, key objectives are agreed upon, creative assets are secured, metrics are established and campaign briefs are begun. After the meeting, Smith Kroeger writes the relevant briefs, which are submitted to the client for approval.
Ideation
After creative and tactical briefs are approved, the Ideation phase begins. During this stage, Smith Kroeger collaborates with our client to develop prospective creative concepts (based on the creative brief) and a comprehensive media plan. These are then finalized by the agency and presented to the client, which makes revisions and/or gives approval.
Execution
In the third stage of the process, project bids are let, creative concepts are executed, media is purchased, broadcast advertising is produced and campaign assets are trafficked.
Acceleration
In our opinion, this is the most exciting phase of the Geared to Perform Process - as the campaign breaks and begins to accomplish our client’s goals. As a marketing communications company, seeing the work we’ve partnered with our client to create gain momentum is extremely satisfying.
Examination
The Examination stage involves the monitoring of all aspects of the campaign. As the media runs, the performance of the creative assets are closely measured and then adjusted to ensure the maximum impact, effectiveness and ROI.
