Our campaign with our client Pluxnet was recognised in a highly competitive category for innovative campaign execution that not only delivered but exceeded the goals set for measurable growth, engagement and revenue with an ROI of over 2,500%.
“We were facing a critical moment and had a goal to reach 1,000 signups by the end of May. Spitfire stepped in with a powerful digital marketing campaign and website optimisations that completely turned things around for us. We’re beyond elated with the results. This campaign didn’t just meet expectations - it gave us a renewed sense of momentum. We’re incredibly grateful.”
- Siyanda Ramaru, Marketing & Communications Manager, PluxNet Fibre.
The team from Spitfire Inbound and Barloworld Equipment received their award in the Best Corporate website category for delivering a website that not only delivers on UX but also has complex integrations built into the architecture to remove friction for their customers.
Together with the team from Suzuki Auto South Africa and Penquin Advertising, Spitfire Inbound achieved 4 awards for their work with Suzuki Auto in the last year that centred around a strong and subsequent award wining CRM and digital strategy. The awards were for CRM strategy, Marketing Automation, Blogging and the coveted Black Onyx Award for Online Strategy of the Year! This partnership set benchmarks for automotive digital marketing, customer-centric campaigns, and exceptional return on investment.
“In a very competitive market, it is so important to be at the pulse of the customer. The ultimate satisfaction of the prospect and customer is key in being able to deliver a truly efficient service. There is a lot to be said for collecting data; it is what you do with that data that ultimately makes an impact on delivery. HubSpot’s CRM solution has been a critical component in developing marketing strategies that focus on customer engagement and understanding. By strategically implementing HubSpot’s automation features into our overall Inbound and digital strategy, we are absolutely able to track every contact and prospect and nurture them at scale. Real-time reporting and analytics through HubSpot enables us to measure effectiveness of our efforts, empowering us to make data-driven decisions daily. The results speak for themselves, and I could not be happier.” - Dominic Nzimande, Head of Digital, Suzuki Auto South Africa.
