Executive Summary

The collaboration of NEC with ADG was an amazing experience for both the organisations. This case study depicts the successful brand building and lead generation campaign implemented by ADG for NEC, a leading technology corporation. The campaign aimed to increase brand awareness, generate qualified leads, and drive sales within the targeted B2B (business-to-business) segment.

Challenges

NEC, while a prominent player globally, sought to expand its brand awareness and lead generation efforts in the B2B tech market. Specific challenges included:

  • Limited Brand Recognition: NEC faced competition from established brands within the target audience.
  • Ineffective Lead Generation: The existing marketing strategy wasn’t generating a sufficient number of qualified leads.
  • Unclear Value Proposition: Communicating NEC’s diverse range of technology solutions effectively required a strategic approach.

Solutions by ADG

ADG developed a comprehensive digital marketing campaign encompassing the following strategies:

  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO): Implemented on-page optimization and link-building strategies to improve NEC’s website ranking for relevant B2B tech keywords. We also conducted competitor research to identify and target high-volume, low-competition keywords.
  • Search Engine Marketing (SEM): Launched targeted PPC campaigns across search engines like Google Ads and Bing Ads. These campaigns focused on keywords related to specific NEC product lines and services, ensuring ads reached qualified leads actively searching for solutions.
  • Content Marketing: Created high-quality content like white papers, case studies, and blog posts that addressed industry pain points and showcased NEC’s expertise. Content was distributed through various channels, including the NEC website, industry publications, and social media platforms.
