Digital Marke,ng Strategy Project by Chris Robisch
The following slides represent a complete Digital Marke,ng Strategy presented to a client opera,ng in Oregon’s WillameBe Valley wine industry.
The winery’s owner was interviewed at length to create the Crea,ve Brief. While the client had been opera,ng with a website and some social media for several years, she admiBedly did not have an effec,ve understanding of how to u,lize these online marke,ng tools. Furthermore, she also did not have a realiza,on of the poten,al value of these tools for her business. CR Crea,ve Marke,ng Strategies
What she did know is that sales and visita,on needed to improve. She also thought the website was not a good thing, but could be. In the realm of digital marke,ng, the owner’s ini,al spoken concern was the business website. An,quated and ill-‐equipped to support the business, it was the first item she men,oned needing serious aBen,on. The interview, and subsequent crea,ve brief, iden,fied other areas of concern for the business; all areas that are can be aBributed to the lack of a digital marke,ng strategy. The primary challenges and business objec,ves iden,fied (and contained in the CB) are within the Digital Marke,ng Strategy presenta,on herein.

Time, staff and financial resources have been men,oned as factors in this decision.
