From Industry Leader to Digital Authority: The Content and SEO Strategy that Elevated ASAP’s Online Reputation
How Strategic Content and SEO Helped the American Society of Administrative Professionals (ASAP) Achieve the Digital Authority Their Market Leadership Deserves
The Challenge
Amplifying Digital Visibility and Community Engagement for an Established Association
The American Society of Administrative Professionals (ASAP) is the world’s leading provider of training, community, and resources for administrative professionals. While ASAP had a strong reputation within the industry, its digital presence didn’t fully reflect this status. Despite its industry leadership, ASAP struggled to capture search visibility and build stronger connections with its community, hindering growth and engagement.
To close this gap, ASAP partnered with Agency 102 to develop a comprehensive content and SEO strategy, complete with a targeted social media approach to elevate their online presence. Our mission: position ASAP as the go-to digital hub for administrative professionals by driving search visibility and nurturing a thriving online community through educational and engaging content.
Our Approach
Maximizing Digital Impact through Strategic Content and SEO

We developed a targeted content strategy to position ASAP as the go-to resource for administrative professionals. This included creating 8 monthly SEO-optimized blog posts focused on high-value topics like “Admin 101” guides, templates, and role-specific articles. We also refreshed existing content to keep it current with industry trends and maintain high rankings, ensuring that ASAP’s digital presence reflected their industry expertise. - SEO-Driven Keyword and Competitive Analysis:
Using tools like SEMrush and Google Analytics, we identified high-impact keywords to optimize content for greater search visibility. We prioritized key search terms related to conferences, training, and product-specific topics. - Multi-Channel Engagement for Community Building:
To support content distribution, we enhanced ASAP’s social media presence with two weekly posts across LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook, and edited long-form videos for YouTube. This approach increased engagement, expanded their reach, and ensured that ASAP’s authoritative voice resonated across platforms.
