Marketing Strategy and PlanningClients hire Catalyst Strategies to help their marketing teams deliver real results. We help companies get market focused, implement best practices in marketing strategy and planning, optimize marketing resources, and gain senior management buy-in to key marketing priorities.
We start with our nine-point marketing audit and use the results to establish high level priorities. We then work with clients' marketing teams to develop a plan that aligns objectives with talent and resources. Plans include key activities for the year and related responsibilities, dependencies, milestones, and resource requirements.
Our plans address each of the following key elements:
- Company mission, goals, and imperatives
- Marketing goals and imperatives
- Market dynamics
- Positioning, messaging, and branding
- Product strategy and delivery
- Go-to-market programs
- Customer management programs
- Marketing metrics
- Team
Flexible and Repeatable Planning
We work closely with client teams to deliver a marketing plan that is focused on critical activities, yet flexible enough to react quickly to changing market conditions. One of the most valuable by-products of our planning projects is that client teams learn a disciplined and efficient way to repeat the marketing planning process in the future.
Once the plan is completed, we offer implementation support to help clients achieve measurable results. We also come in for periodic plan tune-ups to help client marketing organizations make adjustments when competitive or other market situations change.
