Roadmap for success.

Whether you’re looking to make the best use of additional budget, facing a cut, or seeking a different approach in the face of new market pressures, here’s how Iron Horse can help you drive results.

  • Know who you’re targeting—and why.
  • Choose the right mix of tactics and platforms.
  • Measure for business impact.
  • Integrate your data.
  • Build in experimentation.
  • Optimize the whole experience.

High volume approaches bring low quality leads.

Trying to capture everyone who might want your solution leads to generic messaging and missed opportunities on niche channels. We start with your particular audience and business goals and craft a strategy that puts the right content in front of the right people in the right place—so the resulting clicks can actually lead to further engagement.

Your audience’s favorite channel may not even be on your radar.

Different platforms and different vendors have different strengths and reach. We leverage a mix of platforms and tactics, including publishers and communities, product review sites and ABM focused content syndication vendors, to reach your target audience in the places they trust and build meaningful engagement with your brand.

Eyeballs don’t pay the bills.

Impressions, clicks and form fills don’t mean a lot if they don’t come from your ICP. We help you define and track KPIs that are aligned with your overall campaign goals and map to your target audience, so you can optimize for quality, not quantity.

You can’t afford gaps in the story.

We help you weave together data from multiple sources and platforms to gain a complete picture of who is engaging with your content on and offsite—and what to do about it.

What’s novel is what stands out.

We keep your competition on their toes with a structured optimization strategy that goes beyond creatives to test different platforms, vendors and approaches and adjust accordingly for the most budget impact.

Leads are not the end game.

We look at all the factors that affect conversion—from ad copy and creatives to content strategy to landing page optimization to platform integration—to help you build campaigns that don’t just sound good on paper or deliver surface-level results.

We start by understanding your goals, target audience, and buyer journey—and what has and hasn’t worked in the past. We then draw on our channel expertise (social, display, content syndication, industry publishers and more) and vendor insights to develop a unique plan to maximize impact on your objectives—never out of habit or vendor preference.
