A well-thought-out strategy opens new horizons
Together we will create a marketing strategy that will differentiate the company, leverage its strengths and lead to long-term sustainable business. MORE INFOCompanies with a well-thought-out marketing strategy are more successful
A strategy is a comprehensive set of conscious decisions that differentiates a company from its competitors and offers customers a higher perceived added value. Creating a strategy will bond your team, allow them to look at the company / brand / industry from a different perspective and gain new knowledge and skills.
Companies with a well-thought-out marketing strategy
They have a vision and clearly defined goals and strategies:
- they know where they are going and thus make decisions easily
- they evaluate activities and improve those that do not work;
They differ from the competition:
- they build on their core competencies and values
- they are legible and attractive to customers and employees
They focus on a selected group of customers:
- for which they have an attractive offer
- they communicate with them effectively (they choose relevant communication channels)
They earn and make a profit:
- they have a set pricing strategy that is profitable for them and attractive to customers
They plan their capacities (time, money):
- they follow a marketing plan
Companies without a marketing strategy
They have no vision or strategy - they keep trying but without effect:
- they decide randomly according to the momentary feeling
- they don’t evaluate, they don’t improve, they don’t move anywhere
They offer what the competition does:
- they copy what they see in others, they don’t use their strengths
- they cannot attract quality employees
They try to serve all customers:
- they are so nothing for everyone – they try to be a small hypermarket, which doesn’t work
- they use haphazard communication channels
They might earn, but they don't make a profit:
- prices are set ad hoc, large quantities of products are sold at a discount
They do not use capacities efficiently:
- they make chaotic ad hoc moves
The benefits of creating a marketing strategy for the team
We will create a marketing strategy together. I believe that to create an inspiring, meaningful and effective marketing strategy, the team implementing the strategy, must be involved in strategy creation.
- strengthening trust between team members: by sharing experiences, knowledge, but also frustrations in a safe environment, it strengthens the mutual bond
- aligning on key business building blocks:
by defining the mission, values - personal development of team members
thanks to the acquisition of new knowledge and skills - easy implementation of marketing strategy:
involving the team in the strategy creation process will ensure its easy implementation

Setting activities across individual marketing Ps that will lead to the fulfillment of the strategy
