let’s talk

[ Brand Strategy and Development ]

Whether your business requires a complete rebrand, is trying to shift audience perceptions or is looking to attract new customers, developing an effective brand strategy is essential (and it takes time!).
Your Marketing Consultant can align your brand strategy to the business vision, values and reflect your Unique Value Proposition. By providing a brand strategy with a framework to stand out from competitors and connect with your customers, we can help improve message comprehension, NPS, awareness, and other key brand metrics.

 

[ Marketing Communications Strategy ]

Is your business wanting to increase reach and awareness amongst your target audience or advertises on an ad-hoc basis?
Then your Marketing Consultant can help optimise channel performance (and your budget investment). An integrated marketing communications strategy can achieve desired business objectives and generate growth by delivering key messages through the right medium to your target audience.

 

[ New Product/Service Launch ]

Are you developing or launching a new product or service?
Whether you’re at the idea generation stage, undergoing screening and market testing, conducting product development or almost ready to launch, your Marketing Consultant can assist. Providing an insight-led strategy with a tailored go-to-market plan designed to successfully launch your new product or service and generate sales.

 

[ Digital Marketing Strategy and Channel Optimisation ]

A digital marketing strategy maximises the impact of owned, paid and earned media.
Your Marketing Consultant will deep dive into channel performance (across website and SEO, social media, and email), understand what’s working and identify areas for improvement to drive business growth by expanding reach and engagement. They can also support with creating a content strategy and implement a content planning process to drive efficiencies and deliver optimum results.

 

[ Lead Generation and Customer Acquisition ]

Are you looking to acquire new customers? Your Marketing Consultant can help design a lead generation and customer acquisition plan to achieve your goals.
They will combine the ultimate mix of media and engagement tools to attract new customers, drive consideration and then conversion. Your Marketing Consultant will also provide a framework to assist with tracking and measuring the effectiveness of the process to ensure continuous improvement and growth.

 

[ Customer Engagement and Loyalty ]

Loyalty leads to growth, and many studies show that loyal customers spend a significant amount more than new customers.
Your Marketing Consultant can develop a customer engagement strategy with tactical initiatives designed to retain your customers and drive brand advocacy. It’s all about listening to feedback and utilising the data insights available to make sure your customers have the best experience possible when interacting with your brand.

Founder

Following a successful career responsible for the growth of brands from both agency and client side, Tahnee launched The Marketing Room in late 2018.

In tandem, Tahnee saw first-hand a highly experienced, passionate, and motivated group of marketing professionals with young children, lost to the industry. Since then, Tahnee has led the business to now be Australia’s largest, dedicated marketing consultancy.

Geoff has quickly become a trusted advisor to our Executive Team, and his strategic brand advice has enabled us to transform our organisation for the future.
Partnering with The Marketing Room has been a catalyst to put in place a brand strategy that has reshaped our brand architecture, product suite, team culture and customer experience.
In only a few months we’ve seen noticeable results and we’re looking forward to growing the File Republic brand in new international markets.
It’s astounding how Geoff was able to grasp the complexities of our market, our organisation, and our product, and translate that into a strategy that ignited such passion in our team from top to bottom.
It’s been a great experience and a partnership that we’re looking forward to continuing.

Sean Conroy

File Republic

The Marketing Room team – specifically Jon and Kelly- Anne – were outstanding in their work with us to rebrand and develop a marketing strategy going forward. Their professionalism and practicality was outstanding, offering expert advice and strategic insights. Kelly-Anne’s work with us to plan and implement our rebrand was highly valuable, as will be the marketing strategy she developed
with us to guide our marketing activities going forward.
Highly recommend The Marketing Room.

Anna Dixon

BlueSalt Consulting

Like most businesses we were facing resource challenges within our marketing team. We needed senior, experienced marketing support that could hit the ground running to ensure we didn’t miss the deadline for a new campaign launch.

I’m thrilled to say The Marketing Room were able to provide this support. Their consultant worked inside our business and emersed themselves in our team, brand systems, and processes. It was just what we needed at a crucial stage of an important project for the business.

I can’t praise them highly enough and will consider them again for any additional short-term support we need.

Damien Van Pelt

We are over the moon with Isabel.

She is an amazing Social Media Manager, and everyone loves her in the office. I am glad she can adapt to the nature of our business and fully understood the message we would like to convey to our pages. Isabel’s content is very meaningful and knows exactly what is relevant to post in our industry. Gautam and I are very glad as well that Isabel is friendly to the team members in the office with their loudness.

I noticed she does take feedbacks seriously and used it to improve or amend any changes required. 10/10
