Strategy
When it comes to marketing, it all starts with a solid strategy. Your mission, vision, objectives, and strategies as well as your core offering, segmented approach, core competencies and unique positioning must all be considered. If you’re just launching, looking to expand, or perhaps trying to refocus your business, getting your strategy right will be the difference between success and failure. We develop strategies for strategic business units, markets, products, pricing, distribution and promotions. Our recommendations are based on an assessment of your internal strengths and weaknesses, external threats and opportunities, your competition, the customer and the business environment, as well as segment opportunities and trends analysis.
Media and Marketing
Have you considered your media and marketing strategy as well? Based on Mary’s “Five-Pillar Media” approach, we look at how to leverage your OWNED, RENTED, EARNED, EMBEDDED and PAID media to get maximum marketing clout for minimal cost. Curious to learn more?
