Marketing Health Check

$400+gst

The best place for any micro business to start is with a 3 hour Marketing Health Check. It is a review of your business and marketing activity to date. 

The Marketing Health Check is ideal for owners of micro businesses who:
•  have not made any changes to their marketing activities for some time and want to know how to take a fresh approach.
•  want to take the risk out of their promotional activities by knowing they’re doing what’s right for their business.
•  have never had any formal marketing plan and want to assess their ad hoc marketing activities before taking a more structured approach.
•  are keen to understand their current situation and get an independent overview before making any big marketing decisions.

Many small businesses aren’t actually doing that badly with their marketing – but they could do even better. A Marketing Health Check will review your current marketing practices to see how healthy they are and make recommendations to improve your performance. Insights that can save you time and money now and in the future or shed light on opportunities you hadn’t spotted make this service great value for money. Recommendations are developed around key opportunities to improve growth and profitability from clearly defined target markets.

We will look at:
▪  the marketing mix
▪  your marketing objectives
▪  marketing planning and strategies in place to achieve them
▪  potential risks to the business
▪  brand positioning and target markets
▪  marketing material
▪  e-marketing and social media

I will need access to any existing marketing or business plans (don’t stress if you haven’t got a formal one, but at least an idea of why you got into business, what you envisioned it looking like etc.), an idea/list of the types of marketing you have done in the last 12 months and any relevant results. I will also need to see examples of all your promotional and marketing materials.

Outcomes from a Marketing Health Check are:
▪  practical and actionable solutions to improve your business
▪  a sense of direction
▪  clarity and vision for the future of your business
▪  a to do list with achievable goals and objectives

What happens after my Marketing Health Check?
Well, it depends on how much you can do yourself and how much you need from wordonthebird. Here are some of the packages we can offer you.
