For SMEs

Does this sound like you?

• You’ve nailed the execution of marketing activities, but overlooked the strategy?
• You can’t quite prioritise between marketing and communications?
• Your messaging changes daily because you don’t have time to lock it down?
• You’re growing and realise it’s time to start documenting ways of working?
• Acquisition has been a core focus, deprioritising customer loyalty and retention?

These are all familiar growing pains for a company that’s moving at speed. We’ll work with you on the bigger picture, and put some structure and process around what you do. This means you’ll be in a prime position to keep your current customers happy, whilst winning the loyalty of new ones.

• Need to conduct a marketing function skills audit and hire to new competences?
• Maybe you know what you need but you just don’t have a full-time requirement?
• Need an Interim Marketing Director while you go through a period of change or wait for the right candidate?
• Need independent advice from a marketing expert?

For Creative Agencies

Creatively excellent, but strategically weak?

Or, perhaps you have had an influx of clients and need to balance the workload?

Suffering peaks and troughs in your workload and client demand? Perhaps you have significant offline heritage but would like to understand how to integrate online channels into your clients’ communications campaigns?

Loud & Clear Marketing has over twenty years in-house client-side experience working at a strategic and senior level with +€1.5m agency budgets. We understand the needs of your clients.

Work for your clients can be done behind the scenes so that your customers won’t notice you outsourced the strategy. We are equally comfortable representing you directly in front of the client on behalf of your agency, or, as a partner of your agency.
