Who is Smartlinx?

Smartlinx provides workforce management software designed for post-acute and long-term care providers. Their solutions help facilities improve shift coverage, reduce labor costs, and meet regulatory demands in one of the most complex staffing environments in healthcare.

The Challenge

Smartlinx had a strong product and clear market fit, but their digital campaigns were not producing the performance they needed. Previous efforts lacked coordination across platforms, making it difficult to scale results or track meaningful return. They needed a partner to overhaul the strategy, sharpen targeting, and deliver results across every stage of the buyer journey.

The solution

What we did

demandDrive led a full relaunch of Smartlinx’s paid media strategy across Google, Microsoft, Meta, and LinkedIn. We created segmented audience groups to ensure each platform spoke directly to the right buyer, and tailored messaging for awareness, consideration, and conversion stages. This approach allowed us to maximize engagement while minimizing wasted spend on unqualified traffic.

We also built out a detailed performance framework to track return on ad spend, cost per lead, and conversion rates by channel. This allowed us to quickly identify what was working, shift budget accordingly, and improve results over time. Our ongoing testing and refinement helped establish a consistent pipeline of high-quality leads tied directly to revenue growth.
