Consulting Capabilities

Marketing and management problems differ accordingly, as the dynamics of the marketplace constantly engages altering the status quo. While the elements of the marketing mix, by definition, remain constant, the problem, approach and solution must differ every time.

 

 

Briefing

Time is spent with clients, to achieve optimum understanding of the problem. This is achieved by allowing adequate time with our clients, in their own environment, to understand the "chemistry" of their operation.

 

 

Question Time

As a result of the initial briefing, invariably, we provide a further comprehensive list of questions to be answered before we prepare to proceed further. Quite often, confidential financial information is sought, this, we believe, is essential, as surely a successful marketing and management solution to a problem must be reflected in the bottom line.
