Nick Koiza CEO Smart Component Technologies
SCT operates in a niche and highly competitive market. The company wanted to differentiate its marketing activities from just variations on its sales presentation. It wanted to separate itself from its competitors by demonstrating the value of its solutions beyond technology to include the human, quality and cost-saving benefits of the solution, as well as raise the profile of SCT as a great place to work.
A major part of our approach has been to get SCT’s message to a wider audience and create content that would appeal to a broad base in its target sectors. SCT was operating with a modest budget, so we developed and executed a tactical plan that incorporated:
Resonates set about developing content that would cost-effectively build a following for SCT’s CEO on LinkedIn and communicate the company’s unique offer to businesses within its target sectors and potential channel partners around the world.
The combination of creative, lateral thinking has opened up new content avenues for SCT’s expertise. Content views have increased by 2000 impressions, with engagements rising from 2.2% to 6.1%, surpassing the industry average of 2-3.5%. The blog and ‘Insights from the CEO’ LinkedIn series have consistently performed well, achieving over a 17% engagement rate.
“Resonates have helped to secure SCT’s marketable identity and make sure we can get the word out subtly, without shouting about it. They understand our style and clearly articulate our values. The team has done a fantastic job positioning our technology to our target industries and channels.”
