Why Matrix

Marketing leadership – as and when you need it

Matrix Marketing is a collective of experts who help businesses reposition, boost and fix their marketing to increase sales.

Reposition: How has CoVid changed your market or product proposition? Do you know your customers or are you targeting the wrong people?

Boost: How can you reach more prospects? Do you think existing marketing activity isn’t delivering enough sales?

Fix: Are you wasting money on ineffective marketing? What are your competitors doing that you’re missing? Is your marketing a costly mess?

If you have any of these concerns, or others about optimising your marketing investments, please contact the Matrix Marketing team at ana.ansell@wearematrixmarketing.com / 07770507723

Our Approach and services

When we start working with you we’ll quickly get to grips with your business and its key financial and customer goals. We’ll also identify where your marketing pain points are. Then we’ll tailor a matrix solution – or several – so we can discuss the right strategy for your business, your resources and your priorities.

For example, we started working with Triad Group Plc on brand repositioning and service messaging. After three years, we have also helped them grow by 20% with marketing activity including thought leadership content development designed to drive sales, a revamped website that improves video content and PR and awards.

Adrian Leer, Managing Director of Triad Group Plc considers the relationship with Matrix Marketing to have paid huge dividends:

“We needed expertise on tap that could flex to our plans and budget but also help us to innovate. Ana is always reminding us to prioritise the business development rationale for our marketing activity and this helps us maximise ROI. There’s no doubt Matrix Marketing can provide expertise that helps businesses grow.” More…

Not only will we make the best of your existing marketing and advise you where additional activity will have the greatest impact on sales, we have the experts available to make it happen.
