1 Why Enterprise Search Marketing?Large-scale search marketing programs help solve the following business challenges
Increase Sales and Marketing Efficiency: What if you could
increase revenue 10-20 % while leverage your EXISTING
assets (e.g. existing website and sales team).
Grow Market Share in Weak Economy: In the current
business climate, some companies are changing outcomes
and increasing their market share, while others are staying
stagnant.
Turn Website into Lead Generating Machine: Why is it that
some websites generate 100 leads per day, while others
generate just 1 or 2?

1 Identify the Business NeedDoes your enterprise face any of the following challenges…
Brick and Mortar Leader
“We are the number one player off-line, but we
rank behind all our top competitors online. We
know we need to start web marketing efforts.”Segmented Business Units
“We know search marketing is important, but
our enterprise is comprised of many
separate business units. We need help
getting everyone on the same page.”
Lacks In-House Capabilities
“We need help training and rolling out our
program globally. We do not have the in-house
expertise to do this on our own.”Disjointed Search Marketing Efforts
“Some business units currently run search
marketing programs on their own, but each
reports on a different set of metrics and KPIs.
Which ones matter and which don’t?”

@TravisLowSEO
2 Key Consideration No. 2: Budget ConsiderationsMultiple considerations when budgeting for search
• Understand how much enterprise search
marketing costs
• Define budget during yearly planning sessions OR
from end of year “use or lose” buckets
• Determine what resources are currently available
vs. what resources are needed, ex:
• SEO team
• Paid Search analysts
• Copy writers
• Technical resources
![Page 16: Webmarketing123: Establishing a Successful Enterprise Search Marketing Program 09-07-2011](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042623/548337d3b47959d80c8b496e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

@TravisLowSEO
2 Key Consideration No. 3: Define a Start & End DateClearly defining the start and end date of this program will help align expectations
Start

Tip: Will take 1-3 months to see positive SEO lift and 1 month to
gain PPC traction (leads/sales)

Common metrics include:
• % of keywords on page 1
• Website visits
• Organic search visits
• Organic, non-branded search visits
