Campaign, Content and Social Media Management

Research, Insight and Dashboarding

Reaching people is easy. Making your brand the right choice is more challenging.
You need to build fame (brand comes readily to mind), fluency (easily recognisable) and feelings (makes me feel good).
Understanding your audience, the broader culture, where your product fits and how it can stand out is essential.This involves knowing what, how, when, and where to communicate, using the most suitable tools for your product/service and audience.Whether it’s digital, social, mobile, podcasts, influencers, or traditional media, we can create effective solutions tailored to you.

So make sure you show up at the right time in the right way in order to convert more and create fans

- from when they encounter the pain point your product solves,
- to when they are looking for solutions to a problem,
- to when they are researching possible competitor products,
- to when they use your product

Only when you have a clear understanding of the different times in potential customer's life your brand is relevant can you really connect with them and help them see what you already know: your product or service benefits them more than anyone else's.

Projects / Sprints / Fractional CMO

Whats measured gets managed.... but also not everything that can be counted counts.
There is not a single way to stray further from where you want to go, than using the wrong data to make your decisions.
I can help you in working out what kinds of things you do and don't need to measure, and how to make insightful what is and is not working for you.
As importantly - I know how to show this in ways that make it understandable to you and your team, either in ongoing dashboards or one off results.

Alternatively, if you are looking for the right data sets to help you make better decisions - I also have multiple sources for this.

I can tailor my support to fit your needs perfectly.
Prefer a project-based approach? No problem!
Want to work through multiple sprints with breaks in between? Great!
If you see strategy as an ongoing process, let's discuss a fractional arrangement.
This provides my services at a low cost while allowing us to adapt strategies as you need.

Let’s find the best fit for you!
