IMPROVE OVERALL MARKETING STRATEGIES


Identifying marketing strategies to create greater focus, strategic intention, and effectiveness, and establish a future focused marketing approach.

OVERVIEW

As a reasonably large, siloed organization with multiple constituents, the company had become deeply entrenched in its current approach. This kept the teams from evolving and innovating their approaches, leaving the marketing team feeling stuck. Additionally, the ever-increasing list of to-do’s, tasks, and tactics driven by the growing organization had the marketing teams scrambling to get things done, leaving them forced to face more transactional – and less fulfilling – work.

GOALS

The Chief Communications and Marketing Officer identified an opportunity to reassess its marketing organization, its strategies, and approaches and begin a process for marketing transformation across marketing. The company reached out to TechCXO, and one of their fractional CMOs, Michael Baer, to assess their marketing, marketing strategy and execution, and overall approach to digital and omnichannel marketing to provide an analysis and assessment, with actionable thoughts and next steps for the future.

SOLUTION

Michael worked closely with the marketing and communications team on an intensive three-month-long engagement, meeting 3x weekly with their Chief Communications Officer and regularly with leadership team members and project leaders. Michael also developed a comprehensive assessment of the company’s current marketing approach, technology, data usage, and content strategy, with implications and needs for evolution.
