In conversation with Paula Braiden, Co-Founder and CEO of Seek Social

Q. Some companies still observe digital transformation as a blind challenge. Do you think digital transformation is mandatory to create growth and increase business value?

I do feel that any business out there would benefit from going online and into the digital business space, and there are statistics that back that view up. Nevertheless, I also know that there are businesses out there for whom ‘the old fashioned way’ still works - and I don’t see a need to abandon an approach that’s working just because it’s ‘old.’ Instead, what we advise in those situations is to use digital marketing to support and enhance these more traditional methods.

Q. How can SMEs benefit from your digital marketing services? Explain.

The most costly thing for any business is the acquisition of customers. Seek Social are specialists in this area, and we provide great ‘bang for your buck.’ We’ve looked into this with some of our larger clients and found that we can provide the same results in terms of lead generation and conversions with just 3 or 4 people, as a more traditional approach can with 10. What’s more, with conventional methods, you have to go networking, find people, build a rapport with them and then come to an agreement. All of that can take anywhere from one to six months. Online it’s much more immediate – the same agreement can be reached in a week, maybe even less.

Q. Tell us about your branding and content development services. What is your approach in transferring a message to the world about your client about what they stand for?

We take this immensely seriously. It’s not a fast process because you need to first find the truly good ideas for a brand, and then combine those ideas with real-world data analysis that backs it up. If you don’t do this, you end up with something that might look great, but that won’t produce results or stand the test of time. People also forget just how big an impact can be had via social media. That’s great, but with that opportunity comes the need to be your own quality control. Marketing material can be out there as quick as you can think of it now, but if you make one spelling mistake, get the colors wrong on an image, etc., it’s all too easy to destroy what you’ve been building up.

Q. Despite the promise of digital transformation to drive operational efficiency, Cybersecurity is still the top concern of many. How do you deal with increased risks?

We limit risk as much as possible, following cybersecurity guidelines and best practices. We don’t have all our data stored in one place, we limit access to only those that need a given tool or folder, and we use as much core security as we can, stopping all of the common avenues of attack. If someone really wants to get in, despite these measures they will get in eventually. However, we mitigate this by organizing things so that if we detect a breach, we can contain it in one area and stop it spreading.

Q. There are other reputed companies in the market. How are you a better service provider?

In many cases, we’ve worked in our competition’s companies - or at the very least seen what they can do - so we know what we’re up against. That said, we know that there are some amazing talents out there too. We’re not arrogant enough to say we’re the absolute crème de la crème of every digital agency out there, but I would say that we’re a fantastic company and an amazing team in our own right, and that we know we can help a lot of people!

Q. Do you have any new services ready to be launched?

With the impact of COVID-19, we’ve noticed email funnels really making a comeback. Now, technically it’s not a ‘new’ service, but with the way we’ve revamped how we use them with data analysis, it really feels like one – and our clients are seeing significant benefits as a result!
