Marketing Mentoring
Need to win new business, enter new markets or general overhaul your current Marketing? Rather than spend time on courses or reading more books, maybe now's the time to work with an experienced Marketing Coach or Mentor who will help you work out a plan for your business.
Marketing Mentoring is different from consultancy. Your mentor helps you to dig deep and make sure that your Marketing plans are treated holistically and incorporate every part of your business - from checking the branding is right to getting your people to say the right things to customers at the right time.
Your Marketing Mentor identifies where the gaps in your marketing knowledge are and teaches you what you need to know to get the best results from your existing marketing advisers, whether they are in-house Marketing staff or external agencies.
You can use your sessions with your mentor to go through your plans, practice 'selling your business' to customers, tap your mentor's experience to find out whether you're paying over the odds for advertising or other services, and generally pick their brains! In these sessions, you call the shots. The only thing that the your mentor won't do, is to do your Marketing for you.
All our Marketing Mentors are experienced marketers in their own right. The SME Academy has strong links with the Chartered Institute of Marketing, and one of our directors, Hannah McNamara, has been a mentor to some of the members for a number of years. Hannah McNamara is a respected Marketing trainer and published book author, who regularly delivers Marketing seminars and workshops via Business Link London, Croydon Chamber of Commerce and has spoken at the Business Start Up show for several years.
The other mentors on the team have held senior positions within Marketing departments covering a number of sectors. We have particular experience in Marketing professional services firms.
Packages for Marketing Mentoring start at £577+VAT for a 6-session programme. Please contact us for a full-breakdown of what is inclulded.
Remember, when you call us, we will match you with the Marketing Mentor who has the right experience for your situation.
