"Marketing" is a very over utilised word and conjures many different things in people's minds when they hear it.
Some may think of promtional marketing material, some may think of market research, however to Dashwood Consulting, Marketing is simply utilising resources - internal or external - to assist in effectively enhancing your business in accordance with a plan.
A Targeted Marketing Communication (TMC) plan created by Dashwood Consulting will identify and enable you to convert more prospects into customers and strengthen customer's loyalty to your business.
The process of generating your TMC plan will identify your clients most important stakeholder groups (ie. your target audiences) and the needs & wants that your clients wish to satisfy. It will also help you identify and achieve your clients most important business and/or relationship objectives in the shortest possible timeframe.
Once complete, the TMC plan will detail a prioritised list of content and profiled communication initiatives for the next 6 to 12 months.
Marketing Strategy and Communication Strategy are closely related and should be considered as part of a larger process.

Communication Strategy
How you communicate with your customers has a massive bearing on your success.
Any one who creates and sends a letter, an invoice, a bill, a statement, or the like, is already communicating with their customers but is it effective?
Many companies ignore the fact (or simply forget) that they may already have the perfect vehicle for effectively communicating with their customers. It is through these documents that you can build an effective Communication Strategy using documents and the web.
A company's Communication Strategy is a key business requirement and includes effective communication to all stakeholders of the company. It not only involves detailing the strategies that will be adopted for external communication with customers, prospective customers, and the greater community, but also internally with its own employees.
Communication strategies take a long time to develop, however there is no better time to start one than now!
Depending on the size of your company, the strategy development process can include a wide range of consultation and participation techniques to gather the requirements from all stakeholders. This understanding of communication requirements is the most important part of the process.
Communication Strategy and Marketing Strategy are closely related and the entire research and development process can form part of a Total Marketing Communication Plan (TMCP).
