The commercial problem
The campaign had a defined performance gap to close.
DMS was briefed to reach 7,000 online registrations for a major food and hospitality trade-event audience.
DMS scope
Built around the buyer journey, not channel silos.
- Search engine marketing
- Search engine optimization
- Social media management
- Dynamic display
- Google, YouTube & Facebook activation
Strategic execution
How the demand system was designed.
- Built dynamic display and eight Google/YouTube campaign paths around event discovery and registration.
- Used a Facebook custom-match campaign to reconnect with qualified audience signals.
- Refined targeting so paid media could work as a registration and sales engine rather than a pure awareness layer.
