Business Assessment

Our no nonsense review is not for sissies, but we give you an honest assessment of where you are currently, and then help you determine where you want to be in the future.

We review your website, social media sites and any printed marketing collateral. We make recommendations that will help you create YOUR plan to achieve success.

We start with the following:

  • Business Plan – Vision Statement – Mission Statement
  • Spending Plan & Financials
  • Structure & Operations
  • Marketing & Social Media Plans
  • Even an exit strategy, you might not need or want it now – but you DO need one.

Simple is great! Our 1-page business plan helps you explain to your business partners, family members and maybe even a financial institution why you want to have a business and how you plan to make it successful.

Marketing Plan

Marketing is a daily process, which sounds overwhelming.

By determining your goals for business sales, we can help you tailor a marketing plan to suit your needs. Marketing is a daily process, which sounds overwhelming. By determining your goals for business sales, we can help you tailor a marketing plan to suit your needs.

Social Media

Social Media is a huge portion of how we market today. It is your billboard, your TV ad and your connection to the world and your potential customers.

To be effective you need to have a Content Calendar. We will help you define and create this calendar, and then you will need an employee or agency to handle all of the content production and strategic posting.

Social Media is all about building engagement with your followers. You can post a blog, post on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest or for many businesses, on LinkedIn. You don’t need to be on all of them, but you need to be where your potential customers are and you need to be present.

We Offer the Following:

Personal Sessions

Curated Blog Posts

Social Media Calendar Creation

Posting Services

Email Outreach

You need to maintain a continuous connection with your customers. You can do this by sending a simple email newsletter at least 1 time per month. This is NOT a 20 page tell all, this is a simple 1 page beautifully crafted newsletter with great content and strategic links to take them to your website.

This newsletter absolutely has to reflect your brand, have valuable content, and make an offer. After all, we do want them to buy something from you – right?

Your Call to Action can be based on seasonal items or services. It can be a gift for them sending a qualified referral to you, or you can offer them a free educational webinar or download just for being a great customer.

Here is where we can really help you! We can provide industry specific blogs for your website, post them to social media, and then add them into your monthly newsletters. This is just the tip of the iceberg using email to connect.

We can design a drip marketing campaign specifically for you which allows you to suggest a product or service and offer a targeted series of emails to those who opt in to learn more.

If you do trade shows, we can target those who attended with a one-time offer. That offer can be combined with an opt-in for your newsletter, and additional ongoing marketing through email campaigns. All automated, we work it out with you, establish the content and set it to process. We do the work; you and your business reap the rewards.

Website

One of our favorite marketing gurus is Alan Berg. He wrote a book entitled “If your website was an employee, would you fire it?” Think about that for a minute. And ask yourself..

And ask yourself..

  • When was the last time you updated your website?
  • Is your contact information quickly available, or do they have to fill out a lengthy form?
  • Does the site show where your business is located?
  • Do you have so much content no one will ever read through it all?
  • Are your photos the correct resolution?
  • Are the photos royalty free?
  • Do you tell the potential buyer what you charge for your service, or make them contact you?
  • How do you rank in Google?
  • Is your site mobile responsive?
  • Have you had a professional work on your SEO?
  • Do you have a scheduling calendar?

So many questions and this is just a start. If your website does not accurately reflect your personality, your brand and your product, you will be quickly passed over for the next search.

As a part of our Business Assessment, we do a review of your website and will be offering suggestions for changes to increase your visibility.

Annual Review

Our Annual Review is similar to our Business Assessment. We provide a format for you to process your data for the year in every aspect of your business. Then again, we sit down and analyze it all and make suggestions for the coming year.

This Annual Review keeps your head out of the sand, keeping you on track for your goals for the business. It is essential in helping you build and maintain longevity with your business and secure your ongoing success.

We offer this service starting December 1st, and provide our results no later than January 31st. It is a comprehensive summary for you to maintain and reflect on as you plan for the next business year.

No Obligation Discovery Session

Let’s talk on the phone for 20 minutes to discuss your current situation.

There is no cost or obligation.

I call it a “Discovery Session” where I can learn more about your goals and objectives as well as tell you more about my expertise and how I help my clients.

At the end of our Discovery Session you will have a better idea of my experience, what I do, and how I can help you and your business grow and thrive!

I look forward to speaking with you!
