I'm fortunate to know and work with other people in marketing but it always takes me by surprise when I'm reminded of something simple that I had either forgotten or perhaps not thought of before.
A case in point, when a marketing associate of mine, who these days is also a well known marketing speaker (www.geofframm.com) came to my area recently to present at a local business network. I always enjoy listening to Geoff and every time I see him I'm reminded of one of those gems. This time he had a great tip for marketing planning.
Marketing Plans are what we do best of course, so I'm always interested! But this tip is a such an easy way to get started...
Buy yourself a wall planner, a pack of felt tip pens and some gold stars. On the planner, choose different coloured pens for different areas of your marketing. Red for PR, green for events etc. and put the relevant marketing activity against specific dates. Use the gold stars every time you win some business and add them to the date that you won it. An excellent way to motivate the team and an easy way to follow a plan.
