Creative Marketing
Brand building is why the name gets remembered months later, tactical marketing is what gets a click today.
A 60/40 split between brand and tactical marketing, justified by the long-term growth target for the market.
If the target is 5% market share, the budget is scaled to account for acquiring customers without affiliates or bonuses, which makes it a slower and more expensive process than in markets where those tools are allowed. But it builds a brand for the long run instead of a relationship based only on a financial incentive.
Has the budget been compared to what it has cost to reach a similar market share elsewhere.
Does spending focus on a highly visible launch, or on a steadier, longer presence.
People start searching for the brand name directly on Google, or recognise the ad even without seeing the logo.
Outdoor advertising, transit, digital channels, sports broadcasts, or entertainment content, where the audience is present without any intention to purchase in that moment.
Is there an agreed interim milestone, such as awareness within six months, that the work can be justified by before market share appears.
Does it lean into the big sporting moments like everyone else, or is presence built during quieter periods too.
How many people remember the brand name a week after seeing the ad, not just how many clicked immediately.
Are there pre-agreed thresholds that trigger a change in budget or direction.
Are channels chosen because competitors use them too, or because your own audience is actually there.
