Challenge

The Pursuit of Happiness is a nonprofit organization that specifically sought to aggressively promote their educational courses and the overall academic study of happiness as a rigorous science. They successfully received a highly coveted grant from Google Ads to implement targeted PPC marketing, but this grant came with strict, complex limitations and compliance rules. Their highly restricted advertising budget proposed a significant, ongoing challenge with regards to fully realizing their global mission to help people on a holistic, psychological level. SmartSites crafted a highly efficient, comprehensive digital marketing plan designed to tackle each of these strict budget challenges head on and maximize the impact of every single grant dollar.

“Our nonprofit organization spent nearly two years trying and failing to find an affordable but dependable web marketing company, but we have finally succeeded. The SmartSites team took us under their wing, went out of their way to understand our unique mission and tailor their approach to meet our specific needs and goals. The qualifications of team members, and the way they combined their expertise to pinpoint our blind spots and reorganize our priorities was impressive. As a result, within only three months, our traffic is up by twenty percent and the quality of our traffic, in terms of exit rates and page visits, has improved beyond expectation.”
