WHAT THEY WANT?

Campaign Goal: Elevating Ajinomoto's Digital Presence

Initial 6 Months: 350,000 Accumulative Visitors

Our mission was to increase online traffic for Ajinomoto substantially. Within the first six months, our target was to attract an impressive accumulative traffic of 350,000 visitors.

Our strategy aimed to secure lasting digital impact, ensuring that the surge in online engagement was not just a fleeting moment but a sustained upward trajectory.

WHAT WE FACE?

Challenges: Navigating Obstacles with Determination

Decline in Organic Traffic:

Since 2021, Ajinomoto faced a significant challenge as the organic traffic to their website experienced a noticeable decline. This decline raised concerns within the Japan HQ, prompting the need for a decisive course of action. The drop in organic traffic impacted their online visibility and raised questions about their digital strategy’s effectiveness.

Resource Constraints:

Meeting the ambitious goals set by the campaign presented another hurdle. Ajinomoto acknowledged they lacked the power and resources to tackle the challenge effectively. This highlighted the need for a strategic partner who could bring expertise, innovation, and a comprehensive approach to their website revival.
