Digital Media Planning

Leap Strategic Marketing | Marketing Communications firmLeap Strategic Marketing has developed a proprietary media planning and performance tracking process specifically designed for community banks.  After years of perfecting this process, we’ve learned how to generate growth results while maximizing budget dollars and eliminating waste.

Below is an overview of how our process works.

Target your bank’s prospects for branding, line-of-business and product or service digital advertising to help achieve your goals.

Zip Code Target by Line-of-Business

Our digital media planning process involves developing a specific footprint trading area for each line-of-business. This process can be as elaborate as you would like. Defining each trading area requires reviewing your current customer data to ascertain the specific zip codes that will be used to deliver media messaging. There are a few ways to accomplish this:

  1. Review your current customer information by line-of-business to determine the most important zip codes to your bank and provide those zip codes to Leap Strategic Marketing or;
  2. Have Leap use your current data to develop the most efficient footprint for each line-of-business.  See Building Your Digital Footprint to learn more.

Using your customer data, our media team will develop a custom plan that employs programmatic digital media options to target prospects for each line-of-business. To learn about programmatic digital media, click here.

Programmatic (or network) digital media can be targeted multiple ways:

  • Geographically targeted and customized for each line-of-business or product and service
  • Custom demographic targeting using financial institution best practices for each program or campaign
  • Contextually targeted campaigns using national and local websites to build sustaining or promotional reach and frequency programs
  • Media buys are constructed using desktop and mobile digital display banner ads, online digital video and geo-fencing tactics
  • Media buys are presented to clients and can be adjusted based on budgeting parameters and timing considerations

Leap Strategic Marketing will set-up digital tracking and reporting using both Google Analytics and our custom digital dashboard before each buy is placed.

  • Google Analytics – All websites have analytics that can measure and report results on a digital media campaign precisely based on actual visits.
    • Allows for tracking all visits to the landing page & website from all media sources
    • Measures length of time on the landing page and bounce rates
    • Creates benchmark data to evaluate each campaigns effectiveness
  • Leap Strategic Marketing’s Digital Dashboard – Provides individual campaign tracking and data on a wide variety of metrics from the digital advertising campaigns. Here are a few:
    • Impressions delivered by creative and specific geography
    • Retargeting impressions delivered
    • Ad interactions | rollovers, hovers, click-throughs and view-throughs
    • Domain performance | Which national and local websites are generating the most activity
    • Geo-fence & geo-recency impressions delivered
