EXECUTIVE SUMMARY



The social media campaign of “Manage Emotions to
win”, a book which was released in december
2011, was a huge success which engaged readers
online through a blog and Facebook page of the same.
In span of just two months it garnered over 6000 likes
on Facebook page and increased traffic to its’ blog by
over 300%. The viewers were also engaged real-time
by organizing events like book launch across many
cities in India and leveraging facebook to invite people
and increase the footfalls at these events.
NATURE OF THE CAMPAIGN



 Business to consumer
CHOICE OF CHANNEL/S



Primary channel was Facebook and the author’s
blog. The challenge being building an effective
social media profile with a limited budget. The
client was suggested to have fewer but effective
social media profiles, and use a more focused
online marketing strategy rather than diluting the
efforts across a lot many platforms.
OBJECTIVE


Build anticipation about the book and engage Target
audience which comprised young professionals.
Generate positive word of mouth and referrals for the
book.
STRATEGY AND PLANNING
Two parallel campaigns were planned to drive home
the message.
1.   A Blog not only educating about the book but also
     containing useful articles for self-improvement at
     the professional front.
2.   A Facebook Campaign
The Facebook page and the blog were filled and
constantly updated with relevant
articles, pictures, links and quiz. It was more of an
interactive and dynamic page rather than a static one
as the author was personally involved in answering
the queries of viewers.
This was to engage viewers at the primary level and
educate them about what book entails.
EQ QUIZ:
Once we built a good traction on the facebook page with around
5,000 fans, the client wanted to engage the audience at a deeper
level. For this, our team came up with the idea of engaging the
audience with the help of a quiz. Fans were invited to participate
in the quiz and find out how good they are at managing emotions
at workplace.

The results were published on the walls of the users which helped
promoting the quiz and the brand further to the network of the
user through news feed.

Also the people who took the quiz had an option to explore the
results further, by clicking on a link which redirected them to the
author’s blog where the results were discussed in detail.

This was a huge success with over 500 entries for quiz and over
70% of quiz-taker ended up at blog. And all this without any
advertising budget.
EVENTS
All the book launch events that were organized across
India leveraged the facebook page to increase the no.
of visitors in the events.



As expected, facebook campaigns helped increasing
the turnout significantly. Thus the viewers were
engaged real-time and also got to chat with author not
only on facebook page but also face to face.
ONLINE BUYING

There was also provision of buying book from
BuyBooksIndia, link of which was provided on
Facebook page as well as on the blog. So, it was a
centralized system which helped in converting viewers
into customers. Offering 25% discount on the book
further increased customers.
IMPLEMENTATION
It is worth noting that the campaign had a very
limited budget. Online adverts spend was optimized
after experimenting with different
ideas, formats, texts, designs etc. Thus the final
result came out to be highly effective.


Also there was high conversion rate as the TG was
scrutinized based on several parameters like-
Demographics, age, education, interest etc. Using
this methodology, cost per fan acquired was
brought down drastically.


Using tools like SEM, there was 300% increase in
traffic in just 3 months.
IMPACT AND OUTCOME

over 300 people talking in span of just 2 weeks.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
Raghav and his team has managed facebook
marketing for my book and online promotion for my
company. There are several reasons why I recommend
his work. One is his in-depth understanding of digital
marketing and social media; second he thinks of
solutions outside the box and remains as committed
to the business as if he were a part of it, not just an
external consultant. He is always ready to put all his
energy, stamina and go that extra mile to get the job
done. It's my pleasure to recommend him personally
and professionally.
