Magniflex
Magnistretch Site & Magniflex Combo
Prepared by Green Dot Advertising — November 27th, 2018
Marketing Strategy & Brand Positioning
Support Magniflex with digital marketing for retail locations, and design and develop a website that features the Magnistretch mattress for online retailing. Upon launch, execute and manage digital marketing for both Magnisflex and Magnistretch.
Develop and optimize digital marketing campaigns using search engines, social media, ad retargeting and email drip campaigns to engage prospects with monthly promotions and motivate them to take action.
The strategy centers around targeting consumers living near the geographic locations of the Magniflex retail stores and advertising special promotions to them on their mobile devices. Once they see a Magniflex ad and click on it they will be taken to a landing page with a corresponding offer where they can learn more about the retail location offering the promotion near them.
The mattress market in the US is saturated and competitive. There are online only, in-home trial offers everywhere, and mattress stores have high-end features like adjustable firmness and heating or cooling technologies.
To be successful, it takes a clear strategy that aims to target a specific market segment with a specific product that is perfectly suited for the target consumers to fit their needs. That positioning includes the price point, the product features, the guarantee (trial / ability to exchange) and in many cases it means also featuring a proprietary technology.
Green Dot will work with Magniflex to design and develop an ecommerce website focused on the Magnistretch mattress and its benefits for the target audience. A promotional video and a series of digital marketing ads will be utilized to drive traffic to the site and help sell product.
Green Dot will manage the digital marketing campaigns for the Mangnistrech mattress, and continue to manage the digital marketing responsibilities for the Magniflex brand and retailers. Pricing in this proposal includes services for both campaigns.
Green Dot will carefully track and analyze the results of each campaign, whether inquiries originate via a web contact form or by phone and report on cost per lead by channel. Our primary objective is to optimize your campaigns to achieve the lowest cost per inquiry, while establishing credibility and establishing Magniflex as a premium Italian mattress brand.

Media Spend & Management Fees
Media Spend & Management Fees
How much you spend on media every month is totally up to you. The more you spend, the greater your reach and frequency. Green Dot provides recommendations and guidance based on campaign performance and objectives, while allowing clients to adjust their budgets as needed.
Green Dot does not bill clients for media insertion, or require a minimum budget. Instead, we only invoice for media planning and campaign management. We manage and execute the media buys, create all ads, a/b test the ads, optimize your monthly spend (we may suggest increasing / decreasing the budget allocation depending on a channel’s performance) and report on the results.
All media expenditures are the responsibility of the client and are billed directly to the client by the media vendor or advertising platform. This approach creates pricing transparency and trust, while allowing media budgets to be adjusted as needed.
Green Dot includes these media management services at no additional charge with your marketing retainer up to the specified monthly threshold. Scaling the media buy beyond this baseline triggers a media management fee of 12% applied only to the net new spend above the included monthly threshold.
