How the service works
Our service is tailored to your specific need and requirements. So we can come in to look at one specific element or your entire marketing operation. Either way, we’ll take you through a three step, action-oriented process which quickly gets right to the heart of the most important matters.
Time spent on each step will vary according the scope of your brief:
Step 1. Discovery and Research – This involves a combination of interactive workshop sessions and informal discussions with senior managers, interviews and questionnaires with key stakeholders, a marketing audit if necessary, plus the right amount of primary or secondary research to understand specific marketing issues and opportunities.
Step 2. Creative Planning – Next we facilitate a series of planning sessions focused on big picture issues, and tactical brainstorming. These engaging activities will yield priceless insights and a clear direction for the next 12 months. We’ll use planning tools and mind maps to capture creative thinking.
Step 3. Marketing Plan – A draft plan is prepared, including key marketing decisions and actionable initiatives from the planning sessions. We then work together with you to improve it. The final document comes complete with timelines, budgets and champions. The plan is then presented to the company.
So if you’re ready to take stock, re-focus and invigorate your marketing approach please get in touch.
