Online Webinars

Online webinars are a way to support the 3 main goals set by

Equifax for 2010 on one platform

• By providing information, answering questions, and promoting Equifax

products, webinars are the perfect social vehicle

Things to keep in mind:

• A webinar schedule needs to be created so consumers know when to

expect new webinars

• Distribution strategies need to be fleshed out for pre-webinar promotion

as well as post-webinar video distribution (exclusive vs. availability)

• Online webinars will not be successful as stand-alone social vehicles;

cross promotion & content population will suffer without other vehicles

2

Page 3: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Video/YouTube

Video distribution is another way for Equifax to get their message in

front of a captive audience

• Wide video distribution is also fairly easy since video assets will be

created for Q&A and webinars

Things to keep in mind:

• Video distribution only works if regular video assets are created &

distributed so that users have new content to consume on a regular basis

• Video optimization will help with SEO, as search engines are highlighting

video wherever it makes sense

Q&A type videos which are short and answer specific questions are often

featured on the 1st page of search results

• Video distribution is a supporting vehicle and cannot exist without other

tactics

3

Page 4: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Equifax Resource Center

An Equifax Resource Center located within Equifax.com will act as a

place to house all of the useful information we are providing across

the social web

• Provides content to users on the site, but it will also support SEO as well

as give Equifax a place to drive information-hungry consumers, putting

them even closer to the conversion funnel

Things to keep in mind:

• This Resource Center is not a stand-alone strategy. Instead, this simply

houses all the information long-term so that users & search engines have

a place to find the wealth of knowledge that Equifax provides

• Updated content is a must, as having fresh information keeps the

resource center relevant

• This can be RSS supported so users are fed information as it is created

SEO

Page 6: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

SEO Strategy

Equifax’s SEO strategy is now one that is fragmented between

multiple storefronts

• Because of this, an all-encompassing, cross-storefront strategy will need

to be managed

Equifax as a portal for credit products, knowledge & general information on all

product industries

Debt Wise & ID Patrol as product & category focused SEO sites

• As new sites, these will need additional attention, specifically with link building

• BKV is currently consulting with Equifax regarding specific SEO tactics for optimal

rankings

• Continued SEO efforts for the new storefronts will be important to increase free traffic for

both branded and un-branded terms

6

Page 7: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

SEM Integration

SEM strategies, including Search, SEO & Social Media all work in

tandem, so leveraging these different types of media to work

together is BKV’s #1 goal

Social Media

• Leveraged for SEO link building

SEO

• Works in tandem with Search to leverage high-cost or struggling

keywords

Page 8: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

SEO Learning

Since September 08, there is an average drop of 9 positions in

Search Engine Ranking Positions (SERP) over tracked keywords

from highest ranking to current ranking

Brand terms rank well, in the first position in all tracked terms

Based on top converting keywords in Paid Search, there is need for

SEO optimization on certain terms that are not on first page listings

• fico, credit report score(s), identity theft protection, my fico score, free

fico, credit score and credit report information.

Sitemap concerns still remain as it does not allow engine spiders to

crawl site completely

Page 15: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV History

DRTV was first tested as a lead-generation vehicle in July of 2009

• Small test to determine which spot markets would be respond to a debt

offer and to measure the strongest communication format (:60 or :120)

Nationwide rollout is currently underway with a large buy across

cable and local

• Campaign has proven to be a great awareness vehicle for Debt Wise

lifting sales across all media

• Has turned out to be the best performing TV campaign for the year

Lowest Cost Response and CPA/Sub

Drives Debt Wise sales specifically (almost 100% of sales are for Debt Wise)

15

Page 16: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Objectives

With the creation of a new storefront , a microsite that places its sole

emphasis on “debt-related” help, BKV recommends using TV (in

conjunction with other media) to:

Drive awareness for this sub-brand

Drive new customers / sales to the DebtWise.com website

• We might even be able to create a Halo effect for Equifax.com. This is to

be determined

Reach a new audience; steal share from other “debt-related”

companies

• This goes hand-in-hand with awareness; trying to compete against “debt

reduction/consolidation” clutter

Create momentum and impact the start of 2010

Support other Debt Wise ad programs

16

Page 17: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Strategy

Utilize a combination of :30s, :60s, and :120s

• We know that the :120 spot lengths are most responsive and are most

cost effectively placed at the local market level

• Adding a :30, in addition to the :60, allows us to utilize national cable to

build frequency and broaden the reach of the offering

Campaign will be flighted to maximize impact at the start of 2010

and sustain momentum for Debt Wise through Q2

21

Page 22: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Creative Strategy

Utilize “Debt On Your Mind” spot

• Test less emphasis on Equifax brand in spot; only include at the end

Test new spot that creates more negative light on the problem of

debt

• Create problem/solution; more emphasis on “not debt consolidation”

Create a :30 version (any Debt Wise spot), to allow us to place more

inventory and help build awareness

Include TFNs on all Debt Wise spots (versions)

• This category tends to drive calls to help fulfill needs; Call Center

currently converting 15% of the calls into sales

22

Page 23: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Creative Strategy

Test a “freemium”

• Because this product does not appear to have any price breaks (creating

a “savings offer”), utilizing an appropriate give-away could increased

response

Test the CTA

• Instead of responding to “order now”; include a lead CTA that allows

people to call / go online for more information. More information (online)

can include customer testimonials and debt-payoff calculator (to show the

person, with real numbers, how the product works)

Makes conversion process more “2-step”-oriented; substantiated by the large %

of clicks to the demo (on our Landers) and the number of calls with product-

related questions

Subsequently, allows us to create a new segment for CRM efforts

23

Page 24: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Creative Strategy

Include credit card images on art card, to help filter out those without

CCs

Utilize **Codes in the CTA

Integrate with other mediums to create a unified campaign

Paid Search History

Given that this was a brand-spanking-new campaign, Debt Wise

encountered high CPCs and lower CTRs and CRs since entering

the Debt/Money Management category

• With campaign optimization and DRTV we’ve made some healthy

improvement – but we’re not there yet!

Majority of product sales (approx 85%) generated from Debt Wise

and Equifax brand terms

Debt Wise “Debt” terms continue to have a small SOV within the

category

28

Page 29: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Paid Search Strategies

Create awareness in the debt reduction/freedom market as we are

unknown in this space

• Marketplace cluttered with competitors

Manage CPA/Sub in the $300-$200 range during Q1/Q2 as product

awareness continues to build

• Through ongoing testing and optimization CPA/Sub should get closer to

goal latter part of the year

Increase media spend levels to capture SOV online and increased

impressions from brand building campaigns

• Support DRTV momentum and online brand awareness with increased

spend levels during flights

• New media efforts to reach Struggler market

29

Page 30: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Paid Search Tactics

following tactics:

• Bing/MSN Restructure

• Social Chatter Monitoring

• Expand Reach w/ Ask.com and Advertise.com

• MSN Content

• Google Search Funnel

• Yahoo Search Retargeting

30

Page 31: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Paid Search Tactics

testing in Debt Wise

• Dart Search Platform

• Yahoo RAIS

• Bing Cashback

• YouTube Promoted Video

• Mobile Search

• Google Content w/ FICO Overlay

• Attribution Models

Not tested until latter part of year (after data builds up)

31

Page 32: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Lead Generation

As with TV, develop a 2-step order process to increase conversions

• Generate hand raisers for more info about Debt Wise

• Develop conversion communication program via CRM

Message 1: Did you know the average amount of debt per household is $XX?

Equifax Debt Wise customers reduce their Debt faster saving thousands in

interest

Message 2: Savings Calculator

Message 3: Spend Right Tools

Newsletters, etc.

32

Page 33: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Double Listing

Shift Debt Wise paid search traffic to DebtWise.com/TBD

Stronger quality score

Helps build traffic for storefront

Utilize Equifax.com and DebtWise.com for double-listing on brand

terms

Continue second listing on Equifax core and brand terms

Replacing Equifaxproducts.com w/ Debtwise.com listing

Edge out competitors on side rail

33

Page 34: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Creative Testing

Create specific landing pages for high volume, low conversion terms

• Suggested terms: Calculator, Credit Consolidation

Continue T&D Testing:

• Paying Holidays Bills Test in Q1

• Test “Powered by Equifax” versus no mention of Equifax in T&D

• Use “Learn More” about the product

“Get Debt Freedom Now with Debt Wise Learn More”

34

Page 35: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Google Day Parting & Content

Test Day parting on Google to determine if increased CPCs during

peak purchase times will garner incremental sales

• Roll out to additional engines if successful

Continue Google “themed” content testing

• Groupings of similar or “themed” keywords are incorporated into ad

groups

Debt Wise – Social Media Strategy

Debt Wise social media strategy will cater to those seeking a deeper

understanding of the Debt Wise product as well as specific

information regarding debt and financial management strategies

of 2009

• While it did not drive more sales than the Core credit offering, it still

performed well

0.002% response Rate

1.47% conversion Rate (higher conversion than credit offering)

With stronger messaging, ID Patrol could prove to generate high

awareness and reach through TV

44

Page 45: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Objectives

With the creation of a new storefront – a microsite that will solely

emphasize the need for “total identity protection”, BKV recommends

using TV to:

Drive awareness for this new sub-brand

• Potential to create halo traffic for Equifax.com

Drive new customers / sales to the IDPatrol.com website

Reach new audiences; steal share from some of the other ID

protection companies

Support other ID Patrol ad programs

45

Page 46: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

DRTV Strategy

Campaign flighted for Q2 and Q3

• Allows time for new commercial production and to maximize exposure for

Equifax into Q3 (when all other TV is off)

Initially test spot lengths and offer in 10-12 local spot markets

Test a variety of affiliates and dayparts

Test market sizes

Apply learning from test to rollout strategy for the remainder of Q2

and into Q3

• If :120s are the winner, deploy spot market strategy, similar to tactics

deployed for DebtWise.com

• Supplement local market :120s with :60s, :30s on National Cable

Radio History

BKV has used Radio in the past to help drive awareness and

incremental sales

• Tested Google Audio platform – not successful; lack of “control” over

placement of spots

• Tested Satellite Radio (XM) – limited success; drove a fair amount of

Lander visits, while providing extremely low CPMs (very efficient)

• Tested traditional DR-buy – more successful; allowing us to place spots in

more DR-responsive formats and dayparts

Radio should only be used in conjunction with TV (for awareness

and incrementality to other trackable mediums)

57

Page 58: Bkv 2010 plan master 10.7.9 - part3

Radio Strategy

Utilize another mass reach medium to raise

awareness and generate sales of

IDPatrol.com
