With retrenchments far and wide, it comes as no surprise that many businesses have let their CMO’s go in lieu of a more cost-effective outsourced CMO from reputable companies like Marketing Eye.

For my entire career I have been conducting marketing workshops with groups of stakeholders within businesses with the firm aim of developing a marketing strategy aligned to their business goals.

When building a business or taking the one you have to the next level, it is important to consider how you want to grow your nest egg. What happens when one marketing campaign turns into a rush for your product and service and is this the way you want to grow? Or do you want to maintain a regular increase in sales month-on-month at a sustainable level so you can keep customer experience at an optimum level and ensure that your team of people are growing with you?

Over the past few months, Marketing Eye has hosted hundreds of marketing workshops. There have been many reasons for that, but mostly, companies are keen to start 2019 off strong. To do that, they need to get all of their key people in one room (or on one call) and go through their business objectives, sales goals and marketing activities for the year ahead.

There are many challenges fast growing companies have, and at the forefront it tends to be not only how they market their company, but how they are able to optimise their marketing potential at an accelerated rate to achieve more successful outcomes.

Reinventing your marketing team should be a thing that all companies do on a yearly basis. Keeping everyone on their toes, but more importantly encouraging everyone to stay relevant is critical to your company's success. If your marketing team doesn't have their heart in it and are not determined to be successful, then you may see that written in red in your balance sheet.

At 7am this morning I was on a conference call to Dallas, discussing Marketing Eye's services with a prospect in the real estate industry. As we ran through our services, without even realising it, I discussed the things that we do that no-one else in the market does.

For instance:

A high performing marketing team differs from one industry to another and for that matter, one business to another. The basic fundamental of what defines the success of a high performing marketing team relates solely to the performance of the balance sheet, and marketing's ability to drive high quality leads to sales teams, and give those same teams all the tools in which they need to sell.
