Marketing strategy,
you’ve got to
have a plan, right?
Otherwise, how do you know where you’re heading and how you’re going to get there?
I’ll provide you with a go to marketing strategy which will be relevant to achieving your goals, and make sure that the marketing steps you take are worthwhile.
All with the aim working towards growing your business.
Why is creating a marketing strategy important?
Everyone knows how digital marketing works, don’t they? Most think it means being on social media, but that’s not the case!
In fact, digital marketing covers a whole raft of elements on top of social media, from your website SEO (search engine optimisation) and content, blogging, email marketing…I could go on!
A marketing strategy means that you’ll discover the best way to reach your potential customers or clients, create meaningful content which can be repurposed, and have an easy to implement actionable and accountable marketing plan.
Creating your marketing strategy
Want to get your marketing strategy in place? No problem, here’s how it works:
Discovery call
A 30-minute discussion (online or on the phone) where I’ll ask you some key questions about your business so that I can gauge the size of the marketing strategy your business will require.
Proposal
Shortly after the discovery call, I’ll email a proposal over to you. Have a read, ask questions, and when you’re ready to go ahead, we can get started.
Strategy call
Here’s where I get the nitty gritty from you. We’ll chat through your business goals (we’ll make them specific) so that I can make sure the marketing strategy is going to help you to achieve these.
We’ll also talk about what you already know about your customers or clients and a few other pieces of information that are relevant to your business and the marketing strategy.
Building the marketing strategy
This is where the magic starts to happen. I do some analysis, identify who your core clients are, set some specific marketing goals, and an actionable, time-scaled, initial 3-month plan.
The strategy includes regular checks to see what is being achieved with your marketing, and some KPIs to keep you on track.
Strategy delivery
Your marketing plan will be emailed over to you, usually within 4 weeks of us having the Strategy call.
Strategy follow up meeting
After you’ve had chance to read and digest the strategy, this is the time for you to ask any questions, and put actions in place.
This is also an opportunity for you to find out about the additional marketing support or mentoring that I offer businesses.
