[jankit1981]

I recently appeared for an interview and have been asked to work on 2 case study related to Paid Advertising. I have created the strategy document for Organic and Email Marketing, I need help with paid advertising.

CASE STUDY 1

The Challenge Client is a newbie (Sam’s Pizza) in online pizza delivery (veg & non-veg) services in the country. Online pizza delivery is a competitive marketplace, so the client needs to expand its marketing efforts to be among the top. The client decides to try Google AdWords to expand business.

Challenge is to gain qualified traffic and to convert visitors to sales. Also, the Client is looking to make their business more efficient by using the Internet to allow customers to order food. Client needs to present its service only to certain cities (Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai), as he isn’t providing delivery service in the whole country.

The pizzas are priced competitively at 10% (avg) lower than the top players. The client chooses to allot a test budget of Rs 2,00,000 (3000$ approx) for the initial phase.

You own the campaign, How would you take this forward?
