Public relations and integrated communications agency, Alloy, today announced the rapid growth of its lead generation and marketing automation portfolio, highlighted by more than 60 percent of its clients now using the service offering since its launch in February 2016. In just one year, Alloy has successfully planned, implemented and monitored numerous inbound marketing, marketing automation and digital advertising initiatives that have resulted in above-average conversions and triggered sales.
Highlights include:
Mission critical client FNTS exceeded its year-over-year conversion growth by 23 percent in just 10 months and earned double-digit conversion rates on its content.
Enterprise mobility client PowWow Mobile tapped Alloy to manage its robust Google Adwords, retargeting, video ads and other lead gen initiatives. In the first month alone, the AdWords campaigns garnered 2,000 clicks and an above average CTR of 2.41 percent.
