Selfcraft Media

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Operational Director for a Group that has online Shopify Plus consumer eCommerce stores. Our sales footprint is currently in South Africa.

For what projects/services did your company hire Selfcraft Media?

The company has been growing steadily over the past 5 years, however, we hadn't previously managed to achieve our Digital Marketing goals and objectives. We had tried several Digital Marketing agencies in the past, with all simply wanting to be put on a retainer with no accountability for results. Selfcraft Media is fully engaged and partner with us in achieving our Digital Marketing objectives.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to improve the type, depth, coverage and performance of our Digital Marketing initiatives. Enlarge our use of keywords and improve their organic ranking on Google to page 1 (Goal top 5)

How did you select this vendor?

We interacted with many Digital Agencies over a 6 month period and provided each Agency with a small Digital Marketing Brief to implement over a 6 weeks period. We then evaluated the performance of the Digital Marketing initiative, how they engaged with our organisation as well as the cost-effectiveness of the solution. We then shortlisted 3 agencies to move into a more detailed requirement. At the end of the evaluation process, Selfcraft Media was selected as our Digital Marketing Agency.
