Marketing Tune Up Consulting

Running a successful creative practice takes more than talent, a keyboard and some software. It takes savvy, a clear vision and a solid direction. It also takes a good bit of intestinal fortitude.

If you’re one of the many creatives out there who are good at being creative and solving your clients’ problems, but not as good at marketing and promoting yourself, you don’t have to go it alone. Whether you’re just starting out or a veteran looking to grow an existing creative enterprise, Marketing Tune Up can help.

Truth be told, it’s a bit tough to do your best work when you’re wondering where the next check is coming from. Marketing Tune Up is designed to give you the tools to build your business, find the clients you want – the ones who can also pay you what you’re worth – and set your mind at ease.

Marketing Tune Up isn’t a one size fits all consulting service. It’s individualized and based on your personal style, goals and resources.

Together, we will develop a plan, focus your marketing and promotional activities and get you where you want to be. It’s actually a pretty simple process. Here’s how it works:

• Start with a 45 minute meeting, in-person if you're local to the Fort Lauderdale area, or by phone or email if you're not, to talk about where you’re at now and where you want to be, what you have been doing, what’s been working and what hasn’t worked so well.
  

• If things looks like a good fit, we’ll move on to reviewing your portfolio, do a Current Situation Analysis and begin a SWOT Analysis. That’s short for Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities and Threats.
  

• Next, we’ll develop a workable plan of action that reflects your personality, goals and resources.
  

• Then, we’ll create a manageable calendar of activities – your “to-do” list.
  

• We’ll meet once a week for three months, for one hour, to discuss your progress, challenges and provide suggestions, support and encouragement (along with the occasional push in the right direction, if needed).
  

Meetings are handled in-person (for local clients), by phone, email, Skype, IM or a combination of methods.

It’s not rocket science, but it does take commitment and maybe even a bit of courage. Often, all it takes it creating some structure for your marketing endeavors and the encouragement to keep moving forward.

If you get into a pinch or have question in between meetings, shoot off an email to me. Along with the price of admission comes unlimited email support over three months.
