How to set a value on marketing

We know that there are really 2 questions on your mind when you think about marketing:
 
1.     Is it worth the cost?
2.     How do I know I'm getting value for my money?
 
For years I've been puzzled by this!
 
Business people insist on classifying marketing under "Business Deal" for some reason. If they put R100 in, they want R150 out ... I have no idea why they do this!!
 
Here's the thing. In many ways, marketing is like a can of paint ... you buy it to do a job ... paint protects or changes the colour of something.
 
Do you go back to the paint manufacturer and demand the cost + 50% profit when the can is empty? ... No, obviously not.

Here are two simple marketing facts

1.     Customers will only buy products they know about ... marketing is how they find out.   (Digital Marketing)
 
2.     Customers will buy more if the buying was pleasant.   (Customer Experience)
 
Making those two facts happen is what you pay for ... and nothing more.
 
The more time and effort you ask us to put in to make it happen (the more effective we're likely to be), and the more it will cost you ... simple.

Standard price?   :   Nope!

As you have seen from a browse through the content page, there are a whole range of different services and facilities that we can offer our clients.
 
Each client requirement, and each campaign within that requirement, is a tailored combination of a number of those services.
 
It's impossible to know what you are going to ask us to do, or what is needed for your specific business venture.
 
The way it works normally is that we meet and agree in principle what you expect from us for the following month ... then we invoice you accordingly at month end.

Value for money?

Well again, just like the can of paint, you can see what we've been up to ... quite literally.
 
You can follow the campaigns as they unfold, from a ring-side seat ... transparency is provided by unavoidable and very public default.
 
Bottom line ... it's just honest straight forward marketing.
