Who should have a Marketing Planning Session?
Being able to inform potential clients or customers about products and services is paramount. Would you like to:

- Be able to set SMART marketing goals to achieve over the next 12 months
- Increase the return on your marketing investment
- Develop you own outline of the unique marketing strategies which will make you shine
What is involved?
You attend a four-hour session, or 2 x 2-hour sessions, either online or in one of our offices, facilitated by a specialist marketing team member to:
- Identify your ‘Why?’, target market and key advantages
- Discuss your 3 p’s: Promotion, Positioning and Product mix
- Set your marketing goals for the next 3 months and 12 months
- Support you in establishing your marketing KPI’s and their measurement
- Establish a direction and action plan to achieve the agreed goals.
In advance of your meetings we will ask you to complete a comprehensive but simple pre-work so that you can identify any issues to discuss. This insight will allow us to understand your current marketing strategy and to prepare a range of resources required for the session. Following the session you will be sent a personalised Marketing Plan with minutes of the meeting, as well as additional resources to ensure that you get the best opportunity to maximise your investment in your plan.
When should I have the session?
Any time is the best time to enhance your marketing strategy, particularly in these unprecedented times. Marketing your business now will give you an increased presence to get ahead of your competition and keep yourself at the forefront of your potential customers and clients. Some clients like to have a Business Plan in place before starting on Marketing Planning. This isn’t essential, but it can make Marketing Planning easier for you to complete, having already considered the other aspects of the business, and improve the process of implementation.
