Comprehensive marketing plans

You’ve got a great product. You’ve got great service. Wouldn’t it be great if you had a great big line of customers ready, willing and able to buy what you have? Online sales, bricks and mortar storefronts or a combination, we can help you find the targeted customers hungry for your product or service.

Who are my targets? What is my unique selling proposition? What combination of media should I use to best target my prospects and clients? What messages should I use to speak directly to them?

These are just a few of the variables that every marketing campaign needs to address BEFORE you spend a dime on advertising.

We will help you cut through the clutter of advertising and stand out from the crowd.  It works…you’re reading this aren’t you? Get started…

Strategic business planning

Most business owners develop a great idea for a business but build their companies backwards.  Our coaching clients begin with the end in mind and then reverse engineer the business plan to meet your goals and visions.

For entrepreneurial clients:  How much money are you planning to make? How many hours will you work? How many days per week and how many weeks per year will you work?  Have you factored in your important family events?  What will the services be, and how many of each service needs to be sold to reach the goals?

In our company, the business plan is a living, breathing document and benchmark device.  In fact, the answers to the questions asked in the preceding paragraph drive the business decision engine.  The business plan is so alive we are constantly re-writing it.  This method is not only the one we teach our clients, it’s the one that has propelled our growth as well. We routinely exceed our planned benchmarks every year, do you? Get started…

Confidential idea/product development

It’s said that everyone has a $1 Million Dollar idea sometime in their lives.  Are you sitting on yours because you’re not sure what to do first, second, and after that?

DO NOT hire one of those invention submission companies that charge you $2,500-$5,000 for the first phase of the project and then want another $15,000 for phase two, or steal your idea after telling you it isn’t marketable.

Our experienced team can give you the same stage one viability study, feedback and market research for about $1,800.  We work with a 3-year confidentiality agreement in place for your protection and we’ll build a phase two plan based around your goals, not a one-size-fits-all, cookie-cutter process with no guarantee of results. Get started…

Direct response marketing

You can’t afford branding type marketing campaigns unless you’re Coca-Cola® or McDonald’s®.  They cost a bloody fortune and they don’t work for small to mid-sized companies. Do you remember this year’s Superbowl commercials…millions of dollars spent on corporate branding and in a  survey, 70% of people can remember the cute animal or the punch line but not the company or product being advertised…70% of the money wasted!

The vast majority of businesses need laser-targeted, highly evolved messages, delivered through multiple media channels and they need to have a compelling and immediate call to action. No offer, no response, no ROI on the dollars spent. That’s an insane way to spend your marketing budget!   If you want your marketing dollars to finally work and to be able to see a direct, tangible, and spendable correlation between dollars spent and sales made, contact us…right now!
