Growing Engagement 279% with Social Media & SEO Strategy

In 2022, Blaque Diamond Wheels partnered with MetaMartini to support the brands push into all social channels while refining a brand tone that spoke to a new customer segment. Throughout the 12 month partnership, MetaMartini established business management toolkits, brand guidelines, and recommendations for new product launch successes with the Blaque Diamond executive team to assist in sales growth through a non-direct to consumer website. The story, and its results are below.

Step 1 - Refine the business focus.

We started by asking the simple question, “Where is our brand positioned and where do we want to go?” Using our internal toolkits to put thoughts to paper, we began to understand how the brand was initially positioned and where it needed to move to over the next 12 months.

Tools Provided to Client:

• Omnichannel Marketing Toolkit
• Daily & Weekly Statistic Sheet | Business Organization
• Social Analytics & Reporting Tool
• Google Analytics & GTM Connection to Storefront

Step 2 - Establish Paid & Organic channels.

Are we actively talking to future Blaque Diamond Wheel consumers? This question drove the strategies surrounding the implementation of paid and organic social strategies including an influencer component, video, graphic, and more. All content strategies were evaluated against purchasing demographics vs. engaged demographics. Over the partnership, our social audience became the purchasing audience; signaling an aligned consumer funnel.

Tools Provided to Client:

Step 3 - Improve our website experience (w/ SEO)
