Outsourcing your marketing and PR

Outsourcing your marketing and PR

It is the need for change (or the result of change) that mostly prompts firms to contact us – a key marketing person has left, a start-up needs to establish a marketing function, the company is growing or simply that results need to improve. Whatever the reason, outsourcing your marketing is a quick and effective way to ensure that your marketing is being professionally managed and implemented.

Outsourcing your marketing will free you from many of the inherent problems of employing people. The headaches often associated with managing staff – motivation and training, coping with sickness and holidays, disciplinary action – are instantly removed, as are costs such as employers' NI, holiday pay, overtime etc. etc.

Instead of managing a team of people you have one supplier – although we prefer ‘partner’ – to manage, and in truth, we need little or no management.

We work to pre-agreed objectives and service level agreements (SLAs). We report back at least weekly and generally we have monthly – more frequent if necessary – review meetings. Each project is managed via our bespoke back office system, which in turn enables us to instantly report on the status of each and every project.

Our team is made up of all the specialists you need in one place (our offices), from designers and copywriters to web specialists and researchers.

Typically we agree a fixed monthly cost which we jointly review on agreed dates. So, outsourcing provides an easily manageable resource which delivers professional results.

The extent of the service we deliver depends entirely on what you require. If you need an entire marketing department, then that’s the service we will provide, however, if you just need support in specific areas, we can do that too.
