Paid Media Onboarding
Remove the mystique of the Paid Media onboarding process with unrivaled transparency and collaboration.
Know What You’re Getting Into With a Transparent Onboarding
Onboarding designed to demystify the agency-client relationship. We’ve created an onboarding process with unrivaled transparency. From your very first meeting, we’ll walk you through the process and introduce you directly to your account manager and team doing the work on your account. From there, we’ll answer any and all questions you may have for us along the way.
We know how much you’re investing in your paid media strategy. The customer service you receive should match that.
From your very first week, you’ll meet with your entire account team face-to-(virtual)-face. No weird middlemen, intermediaries, or “account managers” trying to upsell you at every turn. At Digital Third Coast, your account team is there to get direct feedback and insights about your business, your challenges, your goals, and your questions.

Keyword & audience research
Your industry is competitive. After our kickoff, we’ll begin extensive research to identify the best keywords to bid on, and the ones to avoid to eliminate wasteful ad spend. At the same time, your account team will also dive into audience research to make sure we’re serving the right ads to the most qualified potential customers online.

Once audience and keyword research is well underway, we’ll turn our attention to messaging. Successful ad copy is nimble, adaptive, and persuasive. At Digital Third Coast, we optimize every paid media campaign with ongoing A/B testing, serving the highest performing ad copy designed to drive business to your website.
