I approached Tara with a request to develop an internet campaign to increase the profile of Celtic Conservation Groups via the WWW. She approached the project in a very professional manner and gathered the team around her to develop their campaign. I was at all times kept informed of its pre campaign plan perpetrations, the campaign itself to the final detailed report. I was most impressed the high level of integrity, initiative and team effort displayed by Tara. I have no hesitation in recommending her for any appointment she is qualified to hold. Pat Quinlan

  • The Celtic Conservation Group (CCG)

      • Mar 2012 - Mar 2012

      I worked as part of a team to implement a Google AdWords campaign for The Celtic Conservation Group (CCG). CCG offer customers the opportunity to "own a piece of Ireland" by purchasing a square yard of land that is conserved for the use of future generations at Kilmovee, Co. Mayo. Customers also receive a certificate of ownership with the GPS co-ordinates of their square yard plot. They also offer customers a book full of Irish history. The target market for the Adwords campaign were the Irish diaspora in America. We ran the campaign one week prior to St. Patrick's Day 2012 and ran for three consecutive weeks with a budget of €200. We achieved the objectives of the campaign which resulted in an increase in traffic to the website resulting in a small number of subsequent sales.
