This boot camp is an intense 3-day event designed specifically to have the attendee develop and finalize a company marketing plan based on company goals, with a campaign calendar and promotions for shoulder seasons to offset slow months.

The process used for this boot camp is a working class, where a marketing evaluation will take place, a discussion about the core strategies in any trades firm will ensue, with in-class training, discussions around each core strategy, and goal setting by company.

The process also includes a defined planning tool to evaluate leads required by vertical, and the plans to achieve leads by vertical with a campaign and promotional strategy for each area.

The action plans will be provided and can be customized to tie into the individual company marketing planning needs.

Major strategies discussed are

• New customer acquisition marketing
• Existing client customer development and marketing
• Tuck-in strategies for acquiring small companies databases
• Media planning
• Internal, operational and external marketing ideas to drive leads and results

A software tool will be provided and there is extensive pre-work involved. This can be EXCEL or cloud based (attendee’s choice). All the tools will be customized to the individual company and are extremely confidential.

This is an outcome-based boot camp, combining teaching in-class, with work time, to finalize and prepare a world-class marketing plan designed to achieve your company goals.
