Common sense direction for marketing success

From business goals to strategy to having a plan

You’re a business and you need to promote yourself – it’s a given. But is your effort and budget actually supporting your core business goals and having the best impact it can?

Can you confidently answer the following questions? If not, then we need to talk.

• What’s the difference between your sales, business development and marketing activities?
• Do the activities you’re doing fit what you’re trying to achieve with your business?
• Why are you spending time and money doing the different activities you’re currently doing?
• Are your activities as effective as they can be or are you wasting your time?

We’re experienced marketing consultants with corporate and small business experience who are plugged into the real world. We can point you in the right direction so you can confidently answer the questions above. We give practical advice that means you don’t just do what everyone else is doing – we help you pick the right activities and execute them in a way that suits YOUR business and YOUR customers.

Boost your skills with training

Many business owners or sales and marketing teams want to boost their own skills instead of farming out work to agencies – we get it. Why not learn to do some of it yourselves? We understand the strain on time, money and resource – we also understand the desire to grow your skills.

We specialise in providing half-day training courses that focus on one thing at a time – the things that you can learn and put into practice that will make a difference to your business marketing. Read more about why the half-day approach is so effective.

Our training courses include things like:

• How to create a great strapline and basic branding that makes you stand out
• How to make the most of your current customers to increase your sales
• Understanding the difference between sales, marketing and business development and how they work together to impact your business
• How to write effective marketing text for web or print
• How to get past ideas blocks – find your marketing content inspiration again

 Training courses come as one-to-one training with an expert or as small workshops with other people wanting to learn the same skills as you. Our one-to-one training is ideal for business owners of any size business who need help with marketing direction and feeling confident about themselves and their businesses. Our marketing workshops are ideal for owners of small or start-up businesses who not only want to learn more about marketing but who also want to meet other business owners in a similar situation.

Help with marketing ideas and creation

We’re a little different to some agencies as we consider your business as a whole when we create your content.
