What Clicks service offerings are unique in the industry & much needed in the current digital ecosystem. We started our relationship by giving them the mandate to audit our contract with our advertising agency and were impressed by their insights & recommendations. Hence during our new website launch campaign we tried their tool IRA to integrate all data point, assess the quality of traffic & get a single dashboard view. We believe What Clicks added a lot of value to the table & I wish them all the luck.
We finalised on What clicks team, because of the holistic approach they recommended for us. These recommendations were based on the specific pain points we had to resolve in our reader retention and monetization. We hope that this association will effectively transform us into a digital first media house.
What Clicks helped us de clutter data from the campaign. Their dashboard, IRA, condensed the data and helped us optimise it on the go. We got valuable feedback on the campaign plan and how to plan for the future.
We at Tata Global Beverages, are always open to try out new things and experiment with innovative offerings. One such example is working with What Clicks. We started working with them right before they were incorporated on some pilot projects. Their intelligence tool, IRA has been deployed in some of our campaigns and it has helped us have a single view of all the aspects of the campaign (as we work with multiple digital agencies on each campaign). We have also tried other services like website audit, digital media planning and buying monitoring, etc which have been helpful in optimising our digital investments.
We see a lot of value working with the team at What Clicks, and believe they have a solid understanding of the digital medium which has helped us in improving our digital campaign effectiveness.
