What You Get
Under this program, I deliver my strategic and marketing planning services on an “as needed, when needed” basis until the engagement is completed.
Each of these engagements are custom designed and quoted. As is the case with our CMO Services, I complete these engagements on either a 100% virtual basis, or on a hybrid basis – where some of the work is completed on site at a client’s office/plant, and the balance in my office/studio.
This Program Includes
- Upfront research, our first meeting and a custom fee estimate.
- Preparation of a custom designed Engagement Scope of Work, including: research, meetings, the design of a new Strategic Plan or Marketing Plan, the design of a new Tactical Plan and Implementation Budget.
- Access to my personal network of vetted third-party marketing and creative specialists.
- Meetings and report preparation as outlined in the Scope of Work.
- Quick access to me by cell phone, email and ZOOM, Teams or Google Meet during the engagement.
