Action Plans

Developing an Action Plan for your internet marketing is time well spent for any sized business, because it’s the process of thinking honestly and thoroughly for how you’re going to connect with your customers.

At HiveMind Marketing, we believe that operating without an Action Plan or with a flawed plan limits your organization’s chances for success. That’s why we work with you to create this important flexible guide as you shift resources to more measurable and effective inbound marketing strategies.

Your Action Plan is designed to adapt and evolve to changing market factors and business needs. Our goal is to set clear benchmarks and objectives for a 12 month engagement, with approved budgets and timelines for first quarter activities. A typical plan will include sections like:

• Discovery – a detailed and brutally honest assessment of your market, your branding, your competitors, and the opportunities and challenges for your business.
• Audiences – identification of audiences key to your markets, their demographics, psychographics, and sociographics.
• Positioning – your unique selling proposition, key messaging for audience segments that can help your brand breakthrough, connect and succeed.
• Marketing Programs – your specific business revenue goals, strategies for tackling market opportunities, action plans for executing strategies, projected costs, and timelines.
• Improvement – setting up a measurement plan before executing any marketing program provides data to support program improvements.

Discovery

We work with you to understand your business, competition, and markets. We review existing materials and audit recent efforts. We help you segment your potential and current customers narrowly based on online behaviors, information needs, and preferred sources. And, we help you tap into the hive mind nature of today's Internet-focused, socially-adept audiences to drive your marketing success — something entirely unique to HiveMind Marketing.

Audiences

Success is all about engaging your audiences to elicit behaviors that help you reach your objectives. We'll help you tailor your message to each audience segment and identify delivery tactics that cater to the preferences of each segment. We'll also help you identify the metrics you'll need to track success.

Positioning

We deliver positioning ideas that connect brands and consumers in both rational and emotional ways. They drive action, response, and results and foster conversations, engagement and loyalty. We do this by layering the essential truths of your brand across your industry and your competitors. Armed with this knowledge, our dedicated team of strategists develop ideas that can help your brand breakthrough, connect, and succeed.

Marketing Programs

At the end of the situation analysis, we'll know where you are today. Now, we work with you to determine where you want to be in the near and longer terms. Clearly-defined objectives are a prerequisite for effective strategic planning and a critical element of digital analytics. Our creative is exceptional, but we're even better at coming up with remarkable ideas for digital marketing strategies and programs that generate sweet results for you. By understanding your target audiences in a completely non-traditional way, we deliver revenue-generating results that other inbound marketing agencies simply cannot match.

Improvement

We help you demonstrate a clear correlation between marketing activities and small-picture (e.g., members, followers, subscribers) as well as big-picture goals (e.g., revenue, reputation). Our analytics frameworks help you understand which marketing activities are successful and which are not. You'll be able to predict how changing your marketing will affect sales, and allocate resources based on real data.
