Push your profile with our marketing and implementation service
Since joining the team a few months ago, I sense a new buzz in the air about Marketing at Incite. Our clients have been incredibly receptive to the idea of using our Marketing Implementation Service as a very cost-effective resource to help them execute their marketing strategies, new business launch and/or rebranding.
So stop putting it off. Now is the time to plan for 2010 and think afresh about pushing the profile of your business. Be honest; has your marketing been on the back-burner? Is your web site a bit tired and out of date? Is your team getting your business in front of the people who really matter? Or are you all just too busy running around in circles on the hamster wheel of life?
Do you have the marketing strategy you need for 2010?
How will you make it happen?
We can assist you with both. Let us help you with planning, writing, organizing and implementing.
By the time everyone else is getting back to work after the summer holidays, your strategy could be well under way, leaving you free to focus on other elements of the business that need your attention.
Please call to chat about how we can work together. Julia Thomas (02) 9484 5050 juliat@incitemg.com.au.

Good managers the key to better business
|
|
In a recent International survey, Australia rated sixth out of 15 in the survey of management performance. We lag behind other advanced economies, and over half our firms are outperformed by many of their competitors in India and China. There is clearly considerable room for improvement.
“Of the three areas assessed, Australia performs well in operational management, but is less strong in people and strategic management."

Business Mentoring - Establishing a new brand in a challenging climate
|
As a new start up business, the owners of emerging Australian fashion brand Luela have been on a steep learning curve since starting the business 18 months ago. From the beginning, they have been mentored by two of Incite’s partners who have been guiding them through the process of growing the business and learning about all aspects of setting up and running an SME. “In a very competitive market, it is reassuring for us to know that our Business Advisors work actively with us and can guide us through any problems that arise. So far, this has included trademark and legal issues, import and export considerations, production hiccups, financial control and the ever present need to drive more and more sales”.
