The Challenge
For their 1st Accelerator program, Axilor wanted to generate awareness and receive quality applications from social media. They wanted to build a solid social media presence that would eventually generate quality applications from aspiring entrepreneurs in eCommerce and clean-tech industries.
Our Approach
Once we achieved sufficient organic growth for Axilor’s Facebook and LinkedIn pages, we focused on increasing the engagement rate of their posts by creating content that was informative and educative to their target audience of aspiring entrepreneurs.
We identified content pillars that would appeal to their audience and then designed an editorial calendar to create a consistent stream of social media content.
We also ran Facebook ads, using different ad creatives, to generate relevant applications for their 1st Accelerator program.
Results
We boosted Axilor’s web traffic by 10X and application rate by 3X. 42% of the traffic for Axilor website came from social media and a majority of applications were received through Facebook & LinkedIn.
