Our approach to marketing strategies

We’ve developed a proven approach to marketing strategy development that encompasses the following steps:

01

Set objectives

Setting objectives for a marketing strategy always begins by developing a comprehensive understanding of the business and its goals. We assess your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, identifying challenges such as market competition or changing consumer preferences.

Drawing on that knowledge and applying our own experiences, our team can then develop an objective framework that aligns with your goals. This framework serves as a roadmap, setting a clear and measurable objectives framework that guides marketing activity towards the desired outcomes.

02

Marketing research

Marketing research serves as a cornerstone for businesses, enabling us to develop a deep understanding of your target audiences, competitors and market dynamics. By employing various methods such as surveys, focus groups and data analytics, we can establish consumer preferences, behaviours and needs, and evaluate market trends and competition.

With these insights, our team can help you to make informed decisions, tailor products or services to meet customer demands and refine marketing strategies for maximum effectiveness to drive growth.

03

Identify target audiences

Before we can tailor the right marketing tactics and messaging, it’s essential to understand your target audiences.

Whether demographics, behaviour, interests or pain points, we have the expertise to develop personas and adapt strategies to meet the needs of your target customers.

04

Strategy development

With all the information gathered from the above steps, CWA's group of marketing experts will develop a strategy with your business KPIs in mind, across all relevant marketing channels.

05

Implementation

Once the strategy is agreed upon, we’ll implement it across multiple marketing channels, ensuring effective deployment and successful delivery of KPIs. We use finalised media plans and forecasts, plus other documentation developed as part of the strategy, to ensure alignment and focus in line with your business objectives.

06

Optimisation and evaluation

It’s also vital to track and report on marketing strategies in real-time, to provide a benchmark of performance, monitor progress and evaluate performance. This gives us the insights needed to make changes if necessary to ensure the best possible results.
