If you're a leader within a company, you know what it means to have a full plate. You’ll also know the value of taking time to plan before you execute. A lot of business leaders get stuck in their marketing because they’re not giving themselves the room to stop and consider what’s going to work best. Instead, they’re making decisions on a whim and can’t empower their team like they want to.
If you’re concerned that you’ve got enough on your plate already without adding a workshop on top - remember the reverse is true.
By taking the time to get clear about what matters in your growth strategy, you’ll end up with less to think about, not more, because your priorities are clear and you’re able to delegate with greater effectiveness. We've been fortunate to have helped hundreds of clients over the past 8 years plan and execute their marketing. This has put us in a position where we’re able to bring new insight and ideas to timeless marketing principles to help you create a marketing plan that works.
What is a growth strategy anyway? It’s not a dull 70-page document loaded with wordy brand statements and hypotheticals, and it’s not a week-to-week guessing game where you pick a new marketing activity - it’s a punchy and clear plan to orchestrate all of your marketing efforts to contribute to your business revenue and build a brand that people love.
What should I hope to gain out of a marketing workshop with The Brand Shop?
After completing a workshop with The Brand Shop, you'll have clarity around:
More than this - you'll have a way to execute it in a 12 month marketing priorities plan.
I'm not exactly starting a new business - why should I invest time in a workshop?
If you've been in business for long enough, then you'll know the value in stepping away from the details of the business to gain clarity around the strategic elements. There are some things you'll only see when you're NOT looking at them. Getting an outside perspective on your growth strategy, expressed through your sales and marketing can be key to unlocking growth.
Is this all talk or do I actually walk away with something I can use?
There are two key components to what we provide here. 1/ The workshop itself - this is space to think strategically and learn about the fundamental frameworks of growth. 2/ The resource delivered afterwards - this is a tool that captures what we discussed, outlines the key takeaways and provides the next steps in the form of your 12-month marketing priorities.
Part of what's included in this resource is...
Further to that, we'll work out...
"Wow, that's plenty! I suppose we shou..."
That's not all though...we also look at your marketing budget....
Is there any minimum commitment period for marketing consulting?
No, at this stage we are able to provide ad hoc marketing consulting on a monthly basis. Please reach out to us to discuss your needs.
What makes your agency better than any other local marketing agency?
Better is far too subjective. We're convinced that our approach to marketing offers a thoughtful, principled approach that also happens to produce incredible results.
We're a team of creatives who believe that big ideas can change the world, and great analytics can prove it. Part of our strength lies in our integrated production capability - Most marketing agencies are 'managers' who co-ordinate other companies/freelancers to execute the production work. We're all in-house.
Another part of our strength lies in our growth-minded approach. Don't only do what works, do the bold thing that will make people say wow!
Which members of my team need to attend the marketing workshop?
You, as the business leader, and any members of your team who are currently working on, or responsible for your marketing or sales activities.
Where are the marketing workshops held?
The ½ day marketing workshop can either be held on-site or in our boardroom for a fee. We'll consider online delivery, but where possible we prefer to deliver face-to-face to ensure the most value from the session.
Do you offer these workshops across Australia?
We host most of our marketing workshops in Toowoomba at our HQ, but frequently travel to offer it in-house for clients. We believe this is the kind of experience that is best offered in person.
