Unlike many Marketing Firms that sell only “a pretty brochure” or a “creative website,” Expert-MarketingAgency.com features a comprehensive Strategic Marketing & Business Development Process. While some Marketing Firms set out to create a mystical approach around Strategy, we simplify it to asking and answering three major questions:
- Where are we?
- Where do we want to be?
- How do we get there?
Not unlike the Physician who orders tests and asks questions, then develops and implements a treatment plan, our professional model is similar in helping businesses and organizations achieve their mission, and their potential.
Focus is a “Ready-Aim-Fire” approach that improves execution, reduces costs and maximizes opportunity, where:
Ready = “Framing the Issues” Research, Triangulation, Calibration
Aim = Creative Problem-Solving and Plan Design
Fire = Execution of the Plan, with in-progress Adjustments
Ready = Research
For many Clients, building insights and understanding via the asking and answering of questions is a critically important variable in the Ready-Aim-Fire of Strategy and Execution. Expert-MarketingAgency.com has “a broad array of Tools in its Research Tool Kit,” among them:
(1) Brand Analytics / Web Analytics

(6) Digital Marketing Planning
(7) Strategic Communications
Fire = Program Execution
puts “the Tools” in “the Tool Kit” and uses them!
