Dooley Tombras, EVP, The Tombras Group, joins the Social Pros Podcast to discuss raising the standard of creative content to increase sales.
Creativity Creates Sales
If you talk with most people, it seems that there’s a general disconnect between creativity and driving sales. It seems to be a natural assumption that good artistry and fun are the polar opposites of a successful business.
The truth is actually to the contrary, and Dooley Tombras of The Tombras Group has the data to prove it. With a strict focus on increasing sales, his agency has found that the best and most efficient way to do so is to raise the bar for creativity.
The more creative and fun your social content is, the more deeply you can engage with your customers, and therefore your message will spread more organically. In other words, don’t be afraid to have some fun with your next ad campaign!
In This Episode
- Why the current marketing landscape is beneficial for an agency
- Why engagement metrics are “soft metrics”
- How to find the best social media community managers
- Why creative content translates into more sales
