Create a winning marketing strategy

Your business invests in marketing. You have a website, you attend trade shows, you have a brochure, you may run online campaigns, and someone posts on LinkedIn. The sales team is chasing leads from every direction.

Brand strategy, the foundation of a serious growth plan

Most B2B businesses have some kind of brand story. There might be a strapline, a set of values, a logo refresh every few years. What is often missing is a clear brand strategy that sales, marketing and leadership all recognise as the commercial foundation for growth.

Aligning sales and marketing

Put your Sales Director and Marketing Lead in the same room and ask a simple question: “Where do our best opportunities really come from, and what happens to them?”

Marketing plans, why most fail and how to build one that drives growth

Most marketing plans are theatre. They look impressive, with long slide decks, detailed documents and neat diagrams. They often spend pages on “vision”, “mission” and “purpose”, then list channels and activities until everyone is exhausted.
