How to make a Marketing Plan truly POWERFUL? G.R.A.I.S.E

Many, many marketing plans are dust collectors - they get written, put on a shelf and forgotten - basically because they do NOT help management get "the job" done.

But a GOOD marketing plan... is actually an everyday tool that makes marketing management and achieving marketing objectives a reality!

So what turns a rubbish plan into a brilliant, key focus of business activity? G.R.A.I.S.E!

Grip: It is soaked in reality (not some fluffy piece of verbose jargon) and is achievable, executable and implementable.

Relevance: It means something to every participant. It helps them understand their function and do it to the best of their ability

Action Steps: Every strategy (how are we going to achieve the objective) is broken down to an Action Plan, with indivisible, individual tactics delegated to a specific person, whose job it is to see the tactic is done to a quantifiable measure including a time-constraint.

Interdependence: Every participating department can identify how each relies on each other for the organisation to achieve the objectives.

Simplicity: It can be read and understood by every person it involves

Exposure: Don’t follow the plan and everyone in the organisation will know who has stuffed up!

So, how do you write a GREAT marketing Pan?

For 100 years academic schools of business have been chasing this allusive goal. Sadly, as academics become more academic, and less commercial, their distance for reality increases. And few are privy to the inner sanctums of the world’s most successful, and discretely quiet about sharing their methods, marketing planners.

Fortunately, launch Engineering, a consultancy that only recruits senior consultants with 25+ years of commercial experience in marketing management that MUST include an outstanding individual success AND advanced marketing qualifications, has provided the answer.
