In digital marketing, success isn’t just about reach, it’s about efficiency. For financial institutions especially, every click and conversion represents real trust built with a member. When 454 Creative partnered with Chaffey Federal Credit Union to promote their Summer Savings Club, we set out to improve conversion performance without increasing ad spend. The result: a 50.2% decrease in cost per conversion in one year — from $18.43 in 2024 to $9.14 in 2025. But this story isn’t just about one campaign. It’s about what every credit union or community-focused brand can learn from optimizing around clarity, accessibility, and data.

One critical aspect of this online presence is digital advertising. For all consumers, the buying journey has changed dramatically over the last 2 decades. Where we used to rely on print, radio, and television to generate leads, and person-to-person contact to educate or nurture those leads, now we find most of that customer journey online. Each time we’re online, whether checking our email, learning something new, or shopping for groceries, we encounter ads specifically designed to convert our interest or need into action. These ads are paid placements in search results, social media sites, and wherever you might visit online. Social and search ads are a powerful way to reach your target audience but require an investment in time and resources to be successful.

Have you ever wondered why your company isn't ranking well in search results? Have you read about the lawsuits targeting companies whose websites weren't ADA compliant? Do you know if there is room for improvement on your paid digital ads? Questions like these can be answered with a range of Audit Programs offered by 454 Creative. From SEO to ADA compliance, our team of experts can look under the hood of your digital marketing and tell you where a tune-up might be needed.

Most marketing textbooks teach that marketing has four critical levers to articulate. These have become known as the 4Ps of marketing: product, pricing, placement, and promotion.
