How The Shippers Group Maximizes Their Budget for Lasting Results

Written By: Courtney Keenan | Oct 27, 2023 1:24:25 PM





Have you ever received a big ask yet didn’t have a lot of resources to do it? If you’ve ever worked in marketing, you can probably relate to this. It can be a struggle, as many marketing departments know. How do you generate quick and lasting results without a large marketing budget? 

The Shippers Group solution: a plethora of content and maximizing your marketing channels. However, not all content is necessarily good content, and not all marketing channels are always relevant. The content must be purposeful, and you must meet your ideal customer where they are.

The Shippers Group set out to accomplish this with the Co-Packing Cost Savings Campaign. With the overall goal of increasing brand awareness and generating new leads for our packaging service line, their team created a cost-effective marketing strategy that was not only evergreen, but also generated quick results without using any paid media. While organic marketing creates a more sustainable online presence and can have a higher ROI, it usually takes longer to yield results. So, how was The Shippers Group able to accomplish results in just two months using this method? By making sure their campaign was rich and diverse in content and marketing channels.

As you’ll see throughout their case study, the Shippers Group structured the campaign around a free, downloadable content offer that was then promoted and supported by many assets that were deployed using several different marketing channels. They leveraged email marketing to target their current network and used their website and social media to target a larger audience. These combined efforts ultimately resulted in over $4 million in potential new business for the company that was generated in just two months. In addition, the campaign continues to organically raise brand awareness, drive new traffic to our site, and generate new leads.
