CAD/BIM Objects – a VELUX Modular Skylights digital and integrated campaign

The campaign target architects cross Europe and US, and aims to generate downloads of CAD tools with BIM Objects. The tools are free of charge and will help the architects in their daily work. The tools are soon to become a legal requirement in all EU-countries but for now it is just a smarter way of working. BIM stands for Building Information Modelling.

Above is the flowchart of the overall campaign. The campaign will generate traffic to the VMS CAD/BIM site and it will create visibility in search on Google and YouTube. 

 

By touchpoint on the VELUX site a retargeting flow will start: creating awareness, inspiration, reference cases, sign up for newsletter and the possibility to specify a project with a Pro. In co-operation with architect blogs, sponsor banners will execute towards architects. All elements are created to get the architects to download BIM objects, gather leads for the VMS database and help the sales personnel to approach and convert the leads subsequently.
