Cutting-Edge
Social Media Marketing

There are many ways to approach social media marketing. You could be actively engaged and use the different platforms to promote your products with targeted ad campaigns, or take a more passive angle and use social media to slowly build an audience through regular blog posts and updates.

Whatever the strategy, social has become a vital part of brand building, promoting products, engaging with customers, and improving search engine performance. We have years of experience helping businesses build and maintain an effective social media presence. In the fast moving, sometimes volatile world of social media, SIXGUN is with you every step of the way, helping you steer in the right direction.

A social media advertising agency with a difference

When you work with SIXGUN, you aren’t simply hiring a social media advertising agency and outsourcing your marketing. SIXGUN is a social media marketing agency that operates as an in-house department for your business, which enables us to provide high-quality, effective work, quickly and seamlessly.

We achieve this by being more than just a company you call for updates once a month. If you need to speak with us, we’re always here for you. This unique approach is underpinned by our commitment to what we do—we’re passionate about helping businesses reach their full potential.

Our team has the expertise to help you build the right social media accounts, whether you’re interested in using all the available channels, or simply want a quick and simple way to show off your business to potential clients with a well-designed and maintained Facebook page.

Unleash the power of social media for a modern marketing solution

Regardless of your thoughts on social media, it’s a fact of doing business these days that you need to be connected to keep up with your competitors. Social media serves as a direct line to your customers. Channels like LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram give you the power to communicate with them quickly, with an immediacy that isn’t possible through traditional marketing channels.

Another key difference between the traditional marketing channels (such as print, radio and television) and social media, is that your customers and audience can respond to you in the same direct way. You receive unfiltered appraisals of your business and products, the quality of your service, and even ideas for what you can do in the future. A lot is written about the negative sides of this ability to communicate, however, when used well, social media can create brand loyalty and recognition that goes deeper than simply knowing a logo or company name.

It’s said that a person who has a good experience with a company will tell three people, while someone who has a bad experience will tell 10. What if everyone and anyone could see someone’s experience with your company? That’s where the power of social media marketing lies.

SIXGUN can help you both tame and harness social media, ensuring that your business and brand are represented in the best possible light at all times. As a leading digital marketing agency in Melbourne, we’ll help you craft exceptional campaigns, and we’ll always be on hand to help you respond to customer queries or complaints in the most effective way possible.

We look forward to discussing how we can create a bespoke social media strategy to help you meet your business goals.

As a premier social media marketing agency in Melbourne, we pride ourselves on specialising in a variety of social media platforms, as we believe that a diverse digital marketing strategy is essential to effectively engage your target audience. Some of the platforms we specialise in include:

  • Facebook: With close to three billion monthly active users worldwide, we use Facebook to reach a broad audience and build a community for your brand. We leverage Facebook's sophisticated ad targeting, viral capabilities, and versatile content formats to deliver your message in an engaging manner.
  • Instagram: Given its popularity amongst younger audiences and its focus on visual content, we employ Instagram to build your brand image and aesthetics, leverage influencer partnerships, and create interactive Stories and Reels that attract attention.
  • LinkedIn: Our team leverages LinkedIn for B2B marketing, professional networking, and content marketing, especially when the aim is to establish industry credibility and generate leads.
  • TikTok: Recognising the rising importance of this platform, we create and distribute engaging, user-generated style content on TikTok to connect with younger, trend-savvy audiences.
  • YouTube: We help ensure your video content is tailored to your brand's messaging and objectives on YouTube, optimising for SEO and utilising its ad platforms to reach a wide audience.

Remember, our goal at SIXGUN is to tailor our strategies to your specific needs. While we specialise in all these platforms, we focus our efforts based on your target audience, industry, and specific social media marketing objectives. We analyse the data and continuously optimise our strategies to ensure that every social media campaign we execute on your behalf delivers tangible results.

The timeline for seeing results from a social media marketing campaign can vary significantly based on numerous factors including your business goals, the industry you're in, your target audience, the existing social media presence and engagement levels, among other things. However, it's crucial to remember that effective social media marketing is a strategic, long-term commitment. It's not typically about quick wins.

Social media marketing often yields exponential, not linear results—meaning the growth and success of your campaign can significantly amplify over time as content and engagement begin to compound.

What we excel at as a leading social media advertising agency in Melbourne is providing you with regular reports and analyses. This way, we can show you the progress in real metrics that matter to your business, such as reach, engagement, conversion rates, etc. We also adapt our strategies based on these results to ensure that we're constantly moving in the direction of your business goals.

The key is persistence, consistency, and adaptability. Social media is a platform where trends change frequently and consumer behaviour shifts rapidly. We stay on top of these changes, adjust our strategies accordingly, and work tirelessly to ensure that your business achieves its digital marketing objectives in the most effective and efficient way possible.

Measuring the success of a social media campaign is multifaceted and depends on the specific goals we set before the campaign's launch. Let us break down the main components for you:

  • Setting SMART goals: To measure success, we first need to define what success looks like for your specific campaign. This could be increasing brand awareness, driving traffic to your website, or converting followers into customers. Our goals are SMART—specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound.
  • Key performance indicators: Based on your goals, we define specific KPIs. For instance, if the goal is to increase brand awareness, we might look at metrics like the number of shares, likes, comments, and new followers. If the goal is lead generation, we'd monitor conversion rates, lead signups, and cost per lead (CPL).
  • Custom reporting and analytics: We use a variety of analytic tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Insights, and proprietary software to track these KPIs. We create custom dashboards to visualise data and monitor real-time progress.
  • Performance benchmarking: We compare your campaign's performance against industry benchmarks and your previous campaigns to understand where we stand and how we can improve.
  • Engagement: True success isn't only about numbers. It's also about quality of interaction. High engagement rates indicate that your audience is finding value in your content and developing a deeper connection with your brand.
  • Sentiment analysis: Beyond quantitative data, we assess the qualitative aspects of your social media presence. By analysing the sentiment behind the comments and messages you receive, we gain insights into how your audience perceives your brand.
  • Return on investment (ROI): Ultimately, we need to link our efforts back to your bottom line. This can be direct (measured through sales) or indirect (measured through saved costs like customer service inquiries reduced due to proactive social engagement).
  • Iterative improvement: Success isn't a one-time measurement. We're committed to continuous improvement, so we use our findings to optimise ongoing and future campaigns. We're also agile enough to pivot during a campaign if the data suggests a different direction might yield better results.

In conclusion, we believe that successful social media marketing isn't a 'one-size-fits-all' strategy. It's a tailored approach, a dialogue between your brand and your customers, driven by data and refined through ongoing learning and improvement.

Digital marketing, and particularly social media marketing, is a dynamic field that requires constant monitoring, analysis, and optimisation. If a campaign isn't performing as expected, it doesn't mean failure, but rather an opportunity for improvement and learning. Here's how we handle such situations at SIXGUN:

  • Performance analysis: The first step is to conduct an in-depth analysis of the campaign performance metrics to understand what exactly isn't working. Social media platforms offer advanced analytics that can provide insights into user engagement, conversion rates, customer journey, demographics, and much more.
  • Identifying the issue: Once we've done the analysis, we'll try to identify the root cause of the problem. This could be related to the creative elements, targeting, messaging, or even external factors like changes in market trends or platform algorithms.
  • A/B testing: If we are unsure about the cause, we employ A/B testing, changing one variable at a time to better understand what influences campaign performance. This systematic approach allows us to tweak the campaign until we see improvements.
  • Adaptation and optimisation: Based on our findings, we adjust and optimise the campaign. This could include refining the target audience, revamping ad creatives, adjusting ad copy, or modifying the campaign strategy.
  • Continuous monitoring: After making these changes, our team continually monitors the campaign to assess its performance and make further adjustments if necessary. Digital marketing is an iterative process that requires ongoing optimisation.
  • Transparency: We believe in full transparency with our clients. You'll receive regular reports on campaign performance, including the challenges we've encountered and the steps we're taking to address them.
  • Learning and improvement: Every campaign, successful or not, provides valuable data and insights that we use to improve future campaigns. We believe in continuous learning and use our experiences to refine our strategies and approach.

Remember, not all campaigns will be a home run from the get-go, and that's okay. It's about learning, adjusting, and improving until we reach the desired results. Our goal is not only to help you succeed but also to learn and grow with you.
