REVIEW OF CAMPAIGN KPIs_

Awareness Building Audience Acquisition

Reach Response RelationshipMeasured during campaign period:1. SBN: # Subscribes2. Twitter/LinkedIn: # Follows

Capturing of Con Biz TA in our database to further nurture w/ content.

Measured through 2 tiers.General Reach metrics:1. SBN: Total Unique page views

on each article 2. Twitter/LinkedIn: Total

impressions made on Con Biz short-form content

Engagement metrics*:1. SBN: Avg time spent on article2. Twitter/ LinkedIn: Engagement

% (e.g. likes, retweets, mentions, shares, comments, click through to article on SBN)

*Engagement metrics because we need monitor if the TA has really consumed the content, so general impressions is not a sufficient indicator

KPIs Overall campaign objectives

Analysis and evaluation

FRS Page views 533 1053 1229 Reach Awareness building

Con biz campaign had relatively lower page views vs Always-on (Con biz articles) and Media Trial, due to:1. More budgets (almost 7x more

social spend)2. Better content quality/depth due

to media partnerships w/ Quartz etc. vs content house freelance writers who were not domain experts.

3. FRS eDM highlights also featured 5-7 top stories that was promoted to subscribers (not applied for con biz campaign)

4. Media drivers from media partnership e.g. Quartz also drove traffic to always-on and media trial articles.

KPIs Overall campaign objectives

Analysis and evaluation

Twitter Impressions 529,133 565,141.50 1,961,099 Reach Awareness building

Con biz campaign underperformed relative to Always on and media trial due to:1. A narrower media buy budget2. Absence of media drivers from other

media partnership owners’ social media handles (e.g. Quartz twitter handle)

3. More hyper-targeted ad campaign mechanics vs broad –base more topline campaign mechanics

Impressions for Con biz campaign is also significantly more selective and targeted.

E/R 0.92% 10.72% 1.13% Response Audience Acquisition

Con biz campaign underperformed for Acquisition metrics compared to benchmarks because:1. Always-on had a broader TA vs

hyper-targeted finite list for Con biz Campaign

2. Ad-formats for Always-on was multi-image + page posts vs Con biz’s single image + dark posts

3. Content angles for media trial was focused on function i.e. operations and HR, suggesting that Con biz’s campaign approach (i.e audience type – HPC, HPC B&M) might be less effective in garnering twitter engagement

• Again this is subject to media buy budgets and presence of other media drivers from existing media partnerships.

• However, the fact that Con biz campaign (with a more hyper-targeted and finite TA) performed better than Always-on (broad base), suggests that Con biz TA is substantial on LinkedIn

CTR 0.57% 0.42% 0.47% Response Audience Acquisition

Con biz campaign performed significantly better than both benchmarks suggesting:1. Content angle based on

audience type (for Con biz campaign) instead of function (Media trial campaign) may be more effective in garnering Click-throughs for LinkedIn (opp of Twitter)

CHANNEL INSIGHTS DEEP DIVE_Twitter channel insights (E/R) across 4 phases – audience type

Topline Twitter channel analysisEngagement rates1. FN + FN R&D audience were the most engaged audience consistently over 4 phases and outperformed

Media trial E/R of 1.13%, suggesting Twitter may be the right platform to reach out to this TA2. HPC B&M audience were the second most engaged audience, outperforming Media trial E/R

benchmarks except for final phase when media budgets were significantly reduced which caused the drop in E/R

3. HPC audience was the least engaged consistently underperforming in comparison to Media Trial benchmark.

All Con biz audience E/R underperformed compared to Always on (Con biz) E/R Benchmark of 10.72% because of the different ad format (multi-image + page post) and broader TA vs Con biz campaign ad format (dark posts) and more limited and hyper-targeted TA list

*Phase 4 data overall faced a significant dip due to reduced media spend for the final phase. Also HPC budgets were completely reallocated to HPC B&M and FN+ FN R&D audiences as it was the slowest “burning” in terms of social spend consumption **FN R&D audience on its own was insufficient to scale on Twitter – suggesting Twitter may not be the right channel to reach deep dive functional target audiences.

CHANNEL INSIGHTS DEEP DIVE_Twitter channel insights (A/R) across 4 phases – audience type

Topline Twitter channel analysisAcquisition rates1. FN and FN R&D audience had the highest acquisition rates. HPC B&M audience followed closely

behind in terms of acquisition.2. HPC audience had the lowest acquisition rates over 4 phases underperforming consistently compared

to Always on (Con biz) A/R Benchmark.

All Con Biz TAs’ A/R underperformed in comparison to Media trial A/R of 0.02% (similar campaign setup, much bigger budgets and different content angles tested) suggesting that perhaps “functional” (i.e. operations, human resource) content angles will work better than content angles based on “audience type” (i.e. HPC, FN, HPC B&M etc) in digital acquisition of TA.

However, FN and FN R&D and HPC B&M audiences A/R still performed better than Always on (Con Biz) A/R benchmark of 0.00045% over phase 1-2 (with different campaign setup but similar budgets), suggesting that a more hyper-targeted campaign setup was more effective in acquiring our TA than broad base targeting in Always on (Con biz).

*Phase 4 data overall faced a significant dip due to reduced media spend for the final phase. Also HPC budgets were completely reallocated to HPC B&M and FN+ FN R&D audiences as it was the slowest “burning” in terms of social spend consumption **FN R&D audience on its own was insufficient to scale on Twitter – suggesting Twitter may not be the right channel to reach deep dive functional target audiences.

CHANNEL INSIGHTS DEEP DIVE_LinkedIn channel insights (CTR) across 4 phases – audience type

Topline LinkedIn channel analysisEngagement rates (CTR)1. HPC B&M audience on the overall was the most engaged audience on LinkedIn, with phase 1 and 2

performing consistently or close to Media trial CTR benchmark of 0.47% and Always on (Con biz) CTR benchmark of 0.42%. suggesting LinkedIn may be the right platform to reach out to this TA

2. FN audience followed closely behind in engagement rates, followed by FN R&D and HPC audiences with an almost similar E/R average over the 4 phases.

Overall all TA’s average CTR over 4 phases outperformed Always on (Con biz) benchmark of 0.42%, while only HPC B&M TA CTR outperformed Media Trial CTR benchmark of 0.47%. This suggests that a hyper-targeted approach for LinkedIn (con biz campaign) is more effective in garnering engagement as compared to a broad-base approach (Always On) from the Con biz TA.

*Phase 4 data overall faced a significant dip due to reduced media spend for the final phase.

• FN TA was the most sizeable on LinkedIn with the highest acquisition rates. On the other hand, HPC B&M TA although limited in size, was the most engaged TA on LinkedIn outperforming both media trial and always on (con biz) CTR benchmarks.

• From the results, FN R&D may not be the right TA to reach on LinkedIn with low A/R and CTR• All TA’s A/R significantly outperformed Media Trial and Always on (Con biz) A/R benchmarks, suggesting that a hyper-targeted approach

(dark post) and targeting content by audience type might be more effective in garnering acquisition on LinkedIn• Overall all TA were engaged on LinkedIn performing within the benchmark ranges of Media Trial and Always on (Con Biz) CTR,

suggesting that the approach for the Con biz campaign was successful, given that Media trial also had biggest media spend bugets (5x more than Con biz campaign pilot)

• Overall HPC TA consistently underperformed for both “All Con biz” and “HPC” content angles, in comparison to both Media Trial and Always on (Con biz) E/R benchmarks. HPC content worked better than General all Con biz content (0.97% E/R avg). Due to consistently low E/R performance, phase 4 budgets were reallocated to better performing HPC B&M and FN + FN R&D list.

• Analysis:1. We are not pushing out the right content to HPC TA2. Targeting HPC TA with content based on “function” (media trial - i.e. human resource, operation etc) might be more effective vs

“audience type” • Limitations: Always on (Con biz) and media trial had bigger budgets for content development partnership with content experts e.g.

Quartz, while Con biz campaign was limited by freelance writers who may not be able to develop in-depth or relevant content to our TA.
