how we serve your mission

Media planning tied to growth goals

The plan starts with what the balance sheet needs: loan growth, deposits, or new members. When priorities shift, the media plan shifts with them.

Channel buying and placement

RC Strategies buys paid search, paid social, streaming video, and display, with each channel's budget set by the results it produces.

Field of membership targeting

Targeting stays inside the communities and groups your charter covers, and ad dollars stay with people eligible to join.

Offers, landing pages, and compliance

Each campaign gets a landing page built for the offer, with the disclosures rate advertising requires, such as APY on deposit ads and the terms lending rules require when a loan ad states a rate or payment.

Tracking to funded results

Tracking follows prospects from ad to application to funded loan or opened account where your systems allow, so results are counted in dollars booked.

Budget optimization and reporting

Monthly reporting shows cost per funded loan, cost per new account, and spend by channel. Budget moves to the campaigns producing funded results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What clients ask before we start

What does credit union paid media management include?

+

Paid media management covers media planning tied to loan, deposit, and membership goals, buying across search, social, streaming, and display, field-of-membership targeting, compliant ads and landing pages, tracking to funded results, and monthly reporting. RC Strategies runs it all and judges it on funded loans and new accounts.

How do you tie ad spend to funded loans?

+

RC Strategies tracks each prospect from the ad to the application and, where your loan and core systems allow, to the funded loan. Reports then show cost per funded loan by channel, which is the number a CFO and board can use.

How should paid media shift between loans and deposits?

+

Paid media should follow what the balance sheet needs. When the credit union needs deposits, campaigns lead with certificates and savings. When it needs loans, they lead with loan offers. RC Strategies plans with finance so marketing changes emphasis when priorities change.

How do you keep credit union ads compliant?

+

RC Strategies builds required disclosures into ads and landing pages, such as the NCUA official advertising statement, APY on deposit offers, and the additional terms lending rules require when a loan ad states a rate or payment. Your compliance team approves before launch.

What results has RC Strategies delivered for credit union lending?

+

For a Southeast Region credit union, RC Strategies' work produced 12% consumer loan growth year over year. The case study below covers the auto lending results.

Which channels work best for credit union loan campaigns?

+

Search captures people already shopping for a loan, and social and streaming build demand before they shop. RC Strategies weights budget toward the channels producing funded loans at the lowest cost, and that mix differs by product and market.
