Prism Global Marketing Solutions has been working with Agricen for seven years. One of Agricen’s goals in 2020 was to find more digital ways to reach their potential audience due to COVID. Their business model is based on face-to-face interaction given their primary audience, who are farmers. However, the pandemic did not allow face-to-face meetings and events. We, therefore, turned to digital channels, specifically social media, to connect with existing farmers who are using Agricen’s products, new farmers who are unfamiliar with their brand, and distributors who could promote Agricen’s products on their behalf. The following shows the total traction from the 2020 marketing efforts of Agricen. This case study is not centered around a specific campaign but shows how strategic and integrated efforts on social media across platforms, leveraging both organic and paid social, and many types of content and media, can drive significant results.  **Objectives and Goals: ** The primary goal was to increase the visibility of their products, continue to engage their existing and new audience, and drive new business during the pandemic. The main  elements of their social campaigns were to:  - Increase audience size  - Increase the number of website visits from social media - Increase the number of leads from social media  - Increase overall social engagement  - Contribute to revenue with social media efforts  **Strategy, Tactics & Results:**** ** Agricen’s social media channels saw significantly more activity in 2020 compared to 2019.  We posted a combination of:  - Grower stories - Case studies - Video content - Interviews with growers (filmed with cell phones or by Zoom) - Industry booklets - Webinars - Weekly blogs In addition, we started a cadence of social ads to ensure the message was getting in front of the right audience. This included:  - Weekly boosted blog posts on Facebook - Monthly lead ads to generate leads and build the top-of-the-funnel - Promoted ads for relevant holidays to boost interactions and engagement. Some of the holidays we focused on were: National Farmers Day, National Agriculture Day, July 4th, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other major holidays.  **New Contacts from Social Media:**** ** Agricen saw a 692% increase in new contacts (leads) from social media between both organic social and paid social efforts.  ![8F_NewContactIncrease1](https://www.prismglobalmarketing.com/hs-fs/hubfs/8F_NewContactIncrease1.png?width=663&name=8F_NewContactIncrease1.png) **Website Sessions from Social Media:**** ** Agricen saw a 78% increase in website sessions from social media between organic social and paid social efforts. ![8F_WebsiteSessionsIncrease2](https://www.prismglobalmarketing.com/hs-fs/hubfs/8F_WebsiteSessionsIncrease2.png?width=672&name=8F_WebsiteSessionsIncrease2.png) **Interactions from Social Media:**** ** Agricen saw a 164% increase in interactions in 2020 compared to 2019.

In addition, for many of the larger lead-generating campaigns such as webinars and case studies, those were also promoted on LinkedIn,  which is where you will see the second-highest number of clicks across all channels.  ![8F_ClickIncrease6](https://www.prismglobalmarketing.com/hs-fs/hubfs/8F_ClickIncrease6.png?width=624&name=8F_ClickIncrease6.png) The following is an example of the top post in 2020 for clicks back to the website.

In addition, Agricen saw an increase in their social groups (not pictured in the chart below because those groups are managed outside of their social publishing platform). Agricen utilizes groups to continue the conversation around their grower stories, case studies, and to promote product discussion, which resulted in a: - **93% increase **in Facebook group members  - **27% increase **in LinkedIn group members ![8F_OverallAudienceSizeGrowth9](https://www.prismglobalmarketing.com/hs-fs/hubfs/8F_OverallAudienceSizeGrowth9.png?width=523&name=8F_OverallAudienceSizeGrowth9.png) **YouTube Growth:**** ** YouTube also saw significant growth in 2020. With more video content than ever before, including interviews, grower stories, short case studies, and recorded webinars,  their 2020 growth encompassed: - **758% increase** in YouTube subscribers - **200% increase** in videos published - **300% increase** in comments - **20% increase** in average view duration - **12% increase** in video interactions - **11.5% increase** in video views **What was the revenue impact? ** Agricen saw a ***20% increase in revenue ***when comparing 2019 to 2020 revenue numbers. 2020 was the best revenue year that Agricen has had to date! 🎉 Agricen saw tremendous growth from social media in 2020, and that has continued into 2021.
