Coffee with kloog
There is a lot of ‘froth’ surrounding marketing and creativity. Too much froth in my opinion. Too many agencies and marketing ‘gurus’ distract you and overcharge you for the latest equivalent of a half-fat, skinny, mocha, vanilla grande, americano solution when all you want is a quick and easy win.
Marketing is about harnessing the right channels at the right time to attract the right customer for you. It’s about the best ways of raising awareness of your brand, or your cause as well as selling your time, product or service and that’s it! In simple, actionable terms I will help you review what your marketing is about and how it could work better, getting you real results. A no froth, intense shot of marketing stimulation to make you think. It will get you buzzing about how you can have a positive effect on all of your marketing communications.
To date I have supported over 150 start-up and developing businesses, giving them the inspiration to develop their marketing ideas and getting them on the road to success.
Whatever the size of your business – SME, blue chip corporate, public sector of charity – I can tailor a workshop to your needs.
Below are a list of marketing training sessions and workshops that I can deliver. If you cannot see the topic you feel would benefit your team or business then please get in touch as there are others available. I would also be happy to tailor any presentation to your training day or workshops.
