Hiring a Marketing Consultant

What can you expect?

Thankful branding is no longer reserved for the marketing elite! Having a founder who served many years on both sides of the marketing desk as a marketing strategist, executive and an advertising agency professional, we’re very in tune with the challenges today’s clients face. Challenges like more “noise” in the marketplace, intensified competition and more vocal/marketing savvy consumers.

Our aim is to help you prioritize and address your challenges in a sensible, systematic way so you will feel more confident and less stressed about where you are going. Creative briefs, which are our upfront agreements about a project, are a routine part of our process to ensure we’re all on the same strategic page.

Clients hire us because we’re objective, specialized and focused. Objective perspective means there’s no “head trash” about your line of business. Specialized means we’ll fit the right specialized talent to your project (we’re not general practitioners). Focused attention means we won’t try to squeeze you in amongst dozens of other clients, we keep our client ratio to a manageable level so you get the attention you deserve.

Are you our ideal client?

Everyone can use marketing help but we’re not for everyone. Our ideal client:

• Is comfortable making decisions
• Sees marketing as an investment
• Thinks strategically first
  
• Knows what they don’t know
  
• Understands that today’s consumer is highly sophisticated
  
• Is willing to be a change agent within his/her organization
  
• Recognizes that branding and marketing should be fun!
  

After an initial conversation (or meeting) about your situation, we are happy to provide thoughtful proposals to those where there’s a definite fit. If there’s not a fit, we do our best to recommend other service providers, whom we’ve vetted, that may be able to help you.
