98 Marketing

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Senior Director of Operations at BDM international. BDM provides international billing services to USA healthcare providers. BDM is based in Israel with sales operation in the USA

For what projects/services did your company hire 98 Marketing?

BDM never utilized social media to market its services. Until recently, all sales and marketing activities were done through trade shows, trade publications, cold calls and referrals by existing clients. 98 Marketing was brought on-board to create and implement a social media strategy for BDM

What were your goals for this project?

The goals of the project was to use social media to increase the awareness of the service BDM has to offer the US healthcare industry. We were looking for ways to reach financial executives at different healthcare providers.

How did you select 98 Marketing?

We received a recommendation about 98 marketing. Setting up the relationship, coming up with goals, strategy, and execution was fast easy with impressive results.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

We decided to use LinkedIn as the main social media platform we would use. We came to the conclusion that Facebook and other platforms would be less effective for our needs. In order to increase awareness of our company and services, 98 Marketing created a series of professional blogs that were published on the company’s page.

We increased the number of followers of our company and personal page, and we saw the exposure and interest in what we had to say, growing every week. We also launched a LinkedIn message campaign targeted at industry leaders, decision-makers with potential clients.

What was the team composition?

I worked with Loni and Michael Snap, would walk me through the basics of social media marketing, had great suggestions on how to reach our goals, and took charge of the implementation process of the strategy.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The project is still ongoing, so it may be too early to summarize. Nevertheless, we already see a huge jump in the number of visitors to our LinkedIn page, reactions to the blogs that were posted, traffic to the company’s web site, etc.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow was seamless. Loni and Michael suggested ways they thought would assist us to reach our goals, explain the logic and cost behind each item, and made sure everything was implemented as discussed.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They have an amazing knowledge of social media marketing and a quick understanding of the industry we are serving.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the VP of marketing at a software company that provides AI solutions for online platforms. We’ve worked with federal and law enforcement agencies to protect children through detecting and analyzing online toxicity.

What challenge were you trying to address with 98 Marketing?

We needed someone to run our social accounts and create content for us.

What was the scope of their involvement?

The team helps with LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. They create blog content and thought leadership pieces. They also helped spruced up some of the website’s language.

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with Loni (Founder & CEO).

How did you come to work with 98 Marketing?

Our former CMO reached out and created the relationship.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent a little more than $50,000. 

What is the status of this engagement?

Our ongoing engagement started in November 2019. 

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Our narrative is important to us, and our blog posts have ensured that. We get monthly engagement reports and have seen significant organic growth. We’ve started using paid social, but it’s more experimental at this point.

Loni makes sure our messaging is clear, forming our company’s strategy. Her attentiveness shows that she cares about us and the work. Their punctuality mirrors ours. I can carve out my general thoughts, and she’s able to make them into a tight story.

98 Marketing goes out of their way to do more. Loni is always on time and super helpful. Her intuition is also great; she keeps an eye out for exciting stories and angles.

How did 98 Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

They always meet deadlines; most of the time, they deliver the day before. Their communication is also very open. No matter the hour, Loni is on it.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I think it’s their quality. There are a lot of content writers, but from my experience, some of them don’t always hit the nail on the head. Then there’s a lot of back and forth editing. I do always edit content, but with Loni, it’s very minimal.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I can’t think of anything right now.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Give them a chance. Loni really listens, and during our engagement, I haven’t seen her drop the ball yet. She provides a consistent amount of content.
