Our Marketing Surgeries tailored to you
Marketing Surgery
A truly insightful 1-2-1 or a meeting among the C-suite.
The Marketing Surgery approach objectively assesses the current state of the business across 7 key criteria & provides suggestions, strategies & outline plans in the form of a Roadmap to move the business forward quickly.
For a business owner, MD or CEO, this is a high value worthwhile exercise.
Output - a marketing roadmap detailing areas of focus & improvement.
Marketing Workshop
Often a group approach across multiple departments in a business.
Marketing Workshops take the journey of gathering, understanding, sharing & developing insights across the business to be better armed & further engaged on the road ahead.
For all stakeholders, the information is transparent & the value apparent.
Input - some preparation work & multiple attendees.
Output - strategic & thorough plan on viable marketing routes forward, & an engaged team across the business focused on delivering consistent marketing.
Voice of the Customer
High value objective research among key clients.
A Voice of the Customer is a business process that objectively matches the selling & marketing of a business to the insights & understanding of its customers. If there's alignment - that's good & can be maximised. If there's a gap or a mismatch, these takeaways provide the opportunity for a business to review & reset some of its sales & marketing actions. Ultimately, it’s the insights & feedback from the market that is of huge value.
Output - marketing presentation on feedback, key take-outs, suggested new approaches & next steps in your marketing efforts.
