Client Overview
Alcatel-Lucent is a leading provider of hardware telecommunications and software networking solutions for telecommunications companies, mobile operators, government agencies, and enterprises.
The marketing campaign aimed to promote the "New Guy" web series, which narrated the journey of a new Chief Information Officer (CIO) and his innovative problem-solving using Alcatel-Lucent products.
This campaign sought to showcase the practical applications and benefits of Alcatel-Lucent's solutions through engaging storytelling, highlighting their effectiveness in real-world scenarios and reinforcing Alcatel-Lucent's position as a trusted industry leader.

ShoutEx Methodology
In collaboration with the client, ShoutEx developed an extensive Account-Based Marketing (ABM) program, supplemented by a comprehensive Search Engine Marketing (SEM) strategy. This dual approach enabled key accounts to benefit from the "New Guy" subliminal messaging while ensuring broader mind-share within the Software Defined Networking (SDN) industry.
To enhance the plan further, ShoutEx partnered with the Alcatel-Lucent team to create a detailed YouTube promotion strategy. This included various types of targeted advertising, using the "New Guy" web series as teaser videos. These efforts aimed to maximize engagement and visibility, effectively reaching and influencing the target audience within the SDN industry.

The Solution
The promotional campaign was further strengthened through the use of Google Search, LinkedIn Advertising, Facebook Ads, and Twitter Sponsored Updates. These platforms enable highly targeted advertising at the account level. The key to success lies in effectively segmenting the accounts to ensure the right message reaches the right audience at the optimal time.
This process demands meticulous tweaking and continuous monitoring, tasks that were expertly managed by the ShoutEx team. The traffic generated from these ads and social promotions was directed towards meticulously crafted and optimized landing pages featuring gated assets. This approach ensured that the campaign not only reached but also engaged the intended audience effectively.
