Marketing & Communications

 

With so much focus on social media it's beneficial to pause and really look at what your organisation is doing and why? 

Depending on your business or organisational challenges you may need to do more promotion, or focus on stronger market positioning and product development. If you are a government or grant funded NFP and even if you don't rely on 'sales' to generate income you can benefit from marketing and communications to show your stakeholders the benefit of your work in the community.

How do you know if you need marketing?

Market conditions change all the time; new governments, new policies and funding priorities, whether you are in private sector, disability, arts, tourism or Indigenous sectors. Often technology or competition disrupt the best laid plans, so you must be on your toes and respond to changing market conditions. As the manager, or owner it's imperative you must act to find new products and markets or risk your business viability. 

Your board or management team may be asking:

  • How will we communicate this change?
  • Where do we sit in market now and how do these changes affect us?
  • Should we be worried?
  • What direction should we take?
  • Which market and service is our priority in the next 2-3 years, and how are we going to rearrange our messaging around this?
  • How can we communicate this to customers and bring our team on this journey?

We work alongside Marketing Managers to build practical marketing plans and strategies that people can integrate into their day to day work. Or we can develop them for you if you dont have a marketing role, and be your in-house mrketing manager for a short term (up to 6 months) to help lay down new habits and processes for your team.
