1. THE BEGINNING

This innovation initially came to life when…

Ben Bradshaw, the CEO of SponsoredLinX, found himself pondering ways to make our client-experience simpler and more user-friendly. Eventually, this lead to the creation of ‘LinX’, an app which allows for ‘on-the-go’ AdWords tracking direct from the user’s smartphone.

2. WHAT & HOW

The purpose of this innovation is to…

…make the process of tracking and keeping up with your AdWords account/campaigns as hassle free, and easy to use, as possible.

It does this by…

…providing clients with:
– daily, weekly and monthly insights, impressions and clicks
– ‘on demand reporting’ (all files are located in one place)
– the ability to get in touch with their Client Manager, or request a callback, in one click!
– live Facebook Leads, with notifications, in one place
– personalised information and updates from a dedicated Account Manager

3. PURPOSE & BENEFITS

This innovation improves on what came before because…

…previously, clients would need to access their AdWords accounts solely from their desktops. Not only is this far less efficient in a time-productive sense, but the LinX app also provides all information in a more user-friendly mobile app.


Its various benefits to the customer/end-user include…

…allowing clients to track the progress of their campaigns at any time – day or night, from wherever they are. Within the app, LinX also provides clients with Facebook Lead integration—a pivotal point of difference given its exclusivity to SponsoredLinX.

Its predecessors/competitors include…

This innovation will be a worlds first, as it will provide AdWords, Facebook ad performance data, and push leads directly into the app for the convenience of the business.

5. TARGET MARKET

It is made for…

…small to medium businesses who utilise our AdWords and/or Facebook management services, and are looking for a way to more easily track their campaigns and insights.

It is available for sale through…

…the Android and apple app stores; however, LinX is free for clients who have signed up to our Facebook or AdWords services. Our marketing strategy is to

Our marketing strategy is to…
