Option 1– Evaluation

Option 1 is for leaders who want an evaluation of their overall marketing efforts, to focus on the right audiences with the right messages through the right channels. This option is for leaders wanting a snapshot of where your marketing is today, and a plan for where it should be headed tomorrow.

Option 2 – Fractional CMO

Option 2 offers ongoing consulting as your fractional chief marketing officer. You and your team can implement the choices made, but you need regular conversations with an expert to help evaluate and guide your decisions.

Option 3 – CMO Plus

Option 3 includes the wisdom and guidence of your fractional chief marketing officer in Option 2, plus hands-on assistance to get the jobs done.

  • Marketing Guidance

Experience

As a former head of marketing for a Big 12 University and a Texas billionaire, I work with companies to create a personalized marketing plan of action based on your highest potential customers and your highest profit products and services.

  • People Come First

Step 1

The first step is a thorough discussion to identify each of your audiences for your most lucrative products or services, and then to prioritize the ones that are most likely to engage with you soon.

  • Focused Messaging 

Step 2

The second step is to craft messages that resonate with your customers, adjusting the message to solve problems for each of your audiences. To boost sales, match the right message about the right product to the right audience.

  • Create a Plan

Step 3

The third step is to create a marketing plan for reaching each of your audiences. It is rare to be able to do everything at once. So your new marketing plan will prioritize your steps giving you a clear plan of action. To increase sales, you have be intentional about your marketing.

  • Work the Plan

Step 4

The final step is to work the plan. You can take over here and handle it in-house, or you can hire me to work with you to get things done. The key is to begin working the plan step by step. Being consistent over time. No single tactic scores every time. But consistent integrated marketing efforts grow businesses.

Don't chase every new app.

You get better ROI when you focus on what works for your business.

Social Media is Not One, but a Group of Channels

Be Selective

“Small businesses and non-profits do not need to chase every social media app. Choose the ones that reach your audiences.

 

For B2C, every company should have Facebook & Instagram. Add SnapChat & Tiktok for youth, Pinterest for women.

For B2B, LinkedIn is key."

Paul Carr

Marketing, Public Relations Expert

Public Relations is a Another Channel

Be Intentional

Public Relations is often called "earned media," while advertising is called "paid media." PR is earned because you have to earn the media's attention and coverage. PR is story-telling, and every story needs a news hook to capture the media's interest.

With my background as a news reporter, I have skipped past hundreds of media releases because they did not treat me as the first audience. A PR release must meet a reporter's need for a good story. That means I won't write or submit a release that wastes a reporter's time.

In the past year, multiple clients have earned media coverage numerous times on four different Central Texas television news channels, four area newspapers, a couple of city magazines, a local radio station and with a local news blogger. Why? Because I worked with those clients to find newsworthy stories.

Good public relations can be focused on influencing external audience or internal audiences. Yes audiences can be potential new customers, clients or donors, but your audiences also include current customers, clients, donors, contractors, vendors, patients, students, parents, staff, volunteers, etc.

Adjusting your messages for each audience while holding fast to your brand is essential integrated marketing at its best.

1-time review vs. ongoing help

I work with two types of clients:

1) Business leaders who need Option 1 – a one-time review of current marketing along with advice and direction so they can focus their in-house marketing efforts;

2) Teams who prefer Option 2 – ongoing coaching or Option 3 – ongoing coaching and a hands-on partner to come alongside to help get things done.

Not every business or non-profit needs the same things. I help you identify your primary audiences, the key messages they need to hear, and the channels that reach them best. Then we create a plan to help you tell your story to grow your business. It is like having your own chief marketing officer!
