What about all the back links they may have gained because of this campaign. That is something that is also hard to measure.

Ahahahaha your client sounded like after cheating wife, explaining to his secretary, you know honey it was extraordinary, unforgettable… but we have to stop

Sorry DaveN for analogy I could not resist

Only 5 backlinks on a 50k spend? So what was the profit on the exercise, the 15k ? What about a performance based fee structure, traffic, sales or profit? Whatever the client wants, they do it with SEO.

10k per link (hope they where very good ones) and a 50k capaign on just one area where do we get clinets like that

Sounds like the SM campaign worked great but it didnt convert – was it a pure flash site in the AKQA style ?

Yeah we’ve got a client who wants the same. Just had a massive spike of traffic from an article on MSN. The traffic sucked, but they want more of the same.
Clients, eh?

Clients are insane. I honestly believe that the harder you try to convince, assure or educate them the more stubborn, idiotic and completely dumb they become.
Also the less they have or are capable of spending the more hassle they are.
Grats on a 50k campaign though, this coming year may not see many of them being available!




Totally depends where you’re driving the traffic to and what you’re aiming to do? We normally use SM to grab links. On average we can get between 400-700 links for a successful SM campaign. (That costs £2k btw
)
