Marketing Strategy
Our approach to marketing strategy is so simple it can be done with sticky notes! Yet, because it differentiates strategies from tactics and aligns both of those with vision, mission, and objectives, it can be used to solve the most complex of marketing challenges. By breaking down the process into manageable steps, we can ensure that every aspect of your marketing efforts is aligned with your overarching goals.
From Vision to Action: Simplifying Complex Marketing Challenges with Strategic Alignment

First, we start by clearly defining your vision and mission. These foundational elements guide everything we do and ensure that our strategies are purpose-driven. Next, we identify your key objectives—what you aim to achieve in both the short and long term.
​
With these elements in place, we then differentiate between strategies and tactics. Strategies are the overarching plans that guide your actions, while tactics are the specific actions taken to execute those strategies. By clearly distinguishing between the two, we can ensure that every tactic is directly contributing to your strategic goals.
Using sticky notes, we map out these components visually. This method allows for flexibility and creativity, making it easy to adjust and refine the strategy as needed. Each sticky note represents a piece of the puzzle, whether it’s a strategic initiative or a tactical action. By arranging and rearranging these notes, we can see the bigger picture and how each element fits together.

This simple yet powerful approach not only makes the process accessible but also highly effective. It ensures that every action taken is aligned with your vision, mission, and objectives, allowing you to tackle even the most complex marketing challenges with clarity and confidence. This blend of simplicity and strategic alignment is what makes my approach unique and effective, truly embodying the Difference Maker in marketing strategy.
