What Does Your 2017 Marketing Strategy Look Like?

It is never too early to start planning for marketing success in the coming year. In fact, failing to plan is a surefire way to kill your brand and your profits in 2017. Now is the time to begin taking a serious look at your upcoming goals and objectives. It is also the time to start strategizing how you will reach those goals over the coming months.

Cultivating a smart marketing action plan for the coming year can:

Help you focus your energy on the most productive tasks
Help define where your marketing budget dollars should be spent
Help set the course for a successful year

The benefits of planning ahead for the coming marketing year is the best way to ensure that you stay on track. More importantly, forgetting to set aside time for this important task will lead to a less fruitful 2017.

When creating a marketing plan for the next calendar year, keep these questions in mind:

In what ways can I better engage with my target audience?
What will my customer look like in 2017? How have their habits and likes/dislikes changed since 2016?
How can I better leverage my brand in the industry?
What were some of my successes in 2016? What were some of my learning moments?
In what areas do I want to expand and grow my business?
Do you have the right staff in place to accomplish my goals?

Grand Marketing Solutions has been very effective for us. They are the right size firm with the right mix of talents. They spruced up our logo, redesigned our web site, printed new literature, and worked smoothly with our people.

Before starting Business Image Magazine, I met with dozens of graphic designers/printers and worked with a couple before I met Karl Hofmeier of Grand Marketing Solutions. I heard Karl speak at a networking event and was impressed with his expertise. Since then, Grand Marketing Solutions has become my one stop shop for marketing advice, graphic design, printing, website design and maintenance. The service is second to none and I am happy to refer all my clients and prospects to him.

We are proud to be partners with GMS. As an entrepreneur and small business owner, I value a relationship with a partner who is cut from the same mold. Grand Marketing Solutions understands what it takes to keep our company competitive in a ever changing market. They ask the right questions and treat our business as it was their own. With Grand Marketing Solutions as our partner we can focus on our core business while they execute on our marketing strategy. We've been with a handful of marketing firms over the years. Some were large, some were small, but none of them have had the impact that Grand Marketing Solutions has.
