Jobs To Be Done: What they were in need of?
Scale SEO & Content Marketing for Customer Acquisition
Despite tremendous growth from the QuickBooks app store, the client needed to scale their organic marketing faster to acquire ICPs over longer tenure. Ideally, they wanted to double down on SEO and content marketing to reach this goal.
​
Though they were getting some traffic to their website, the conversions were low due to poor quality of content. So they needed a robust strategy to grow traffic and conversions without compromising quality.
Strategic Partnership for ICP-focused Content & Improved SERP Results
Needed an agency partner that can provide high-quality content focusing on their ICP’s needs, and rank these contents into top 5 SERPs for target keywords.
​
They were also looking for a partner who can strategize with them and create a long-term content plan and work alongside their internal team.
Link Building to Boost DA and Rankings using White-hat Methods
In the past, they were involved in expensive PR campaigns and paid link acquisition. They needed a partner who can grow their link building through organic means and through google-approved techniques.
