Globe Theatre
The show must go on
The brief
Improve performance from the Google Grant account and visibility online to help increase ticket sales and drive traffic to the wider content on the Globe’s website (school education, courses and teaching materials). During the pandemic we also wanted to drive additional traffic to the Globe Player (paid for subscription service) and the podcast to help keep people engaged with the Globe while the doors were closed.

The strategy
Due to the irrelevance of the previous setup, we rebuilt the Google Grant account from scratch, focusing on selecting campaigns that would drive conversions for the main objectives. We provided fresh keyword research, ad copy creation and landing page optimisation to help achieve the KPIs.
We designed seasonal campaigns and ad copy is tailored across the Grant account to reflect the current season’s messaging. Over time we’ve moved some core keywords into a Google paid account to maximise the return from ticket sales.
