Marketing Strategies and Plans

Marketwise Strategies helps businesses, large and small, to maximise their market opportunities and develop successful marketing plans. For more than a decade, we have been working with new and established companiesuniversities and colleges, and public sector organisations : developing soundly-based strategies to help them reach new customers and grow in new markets.

Clients tell us that Marketwise Strategies has helped them to:

  • Target the right customer groups
  • Pinpoint the most relevant customer organisations
  • Understand what is required to stand out from the competition
  • Develop marketing materials that are better targeted, and ‘speak’ in the right tone
  • Avoid wasting time and money on unsuccessful experimentation in the marketplace
  • Get closer to customers by developing a business that meets identified needs.

Working with you

Our process is highly collaborative and is tailored to each client’s needs and time commitments – we can provide as much or as little support as you require.

Some of the ways in which we can work with you are:

  • Needs review – via one-to-one meetings, management workshops and a review of your marketing materials and market information
  • Background research – into the market context
  • In-depth research, as required, to deliver customer and wider insights
  • Strategy workshops for your management team
  • Preparing and refining strategy documents and plans
  • Marketing mentoring – working with individuals or teams to support planning and implementation.

Making a difference

We guarantee that we will make a difference – to the depth of market understanding that you have in place and to the confidence with which you are able to move forward. Some of the specific areas in which we have helped clients include:

  • Launching disruptive new products in existing markets
  • Repositioning existing products in mature markets
  • Launching new, imported product ranges
  • Targeting and developing a strong position in a niche market
  • Shifting perceptions of a brand
  • Selecting distribution channels and channel members
  • Developing pricing policies and selecting price points
  • Assessing promotional opportunities and developing promotional plans
  • Improving customer service and shaping customer expectations.
