Introduction

Are you struggling to know where to start with marketing? Don't have time to think about what is going to increase sales? At The Prepared Group we approach these problems by understanding how your business works. We then build a strategy based on solid business principles, designed to help improve your business. It is marketing tailored to your needs. We focus on your business. Instead of forcing you into a one size fits all plan, we find your biggest opportunities for growth and approach it with our three-step process of Analyze, Plan, and Execute. If this sounds like the approach you want to take in your business, then let's talk.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

We believe in straightforward project-based pricing. Once we give you a price, we are sticking to it. We guarantee that there are no hidden or unexpected charges or fees.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

Our process for working with a new client varies based on the project but we always: 1. Have a Transparent On-Boarding Meeting (typically 30 min or less). 2. Set Project Milestones and Timeline 3. Deliver On-Time and On-Budget.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

Our Team comes from a number of different backgrounds. We have both creative and analytical marketing experts who work together to create awesome results. Our staff has degrees in marketing, communications, videography, graphics design.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

Here is a video from several years ago talking about why Prepared Marketing was started. youtu.be/qYpYWoEVYnw

What types of customers have you worked with?

We've worked small businesses of all sizes. From companies doing 30+ million in revenue to first time entrepreneurs who have yet to launch their business. We enjoy a diverse range of challenges that different industries provide, while also enjoying the summitry of effective marketing principles.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Look for a group that is focused on your business outcomes not simply subject matter experts. From our perspective, many small businesses purchase from the first person who sets out a clear vision to profit, and while this may happen, in our experience, if there isn't a clear understanding of your business and your goals. Purchasing a commodity called "marketing" is far off from the business process of marketing.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

I believe the most important concepts to consider revolve around how this project will drive a return to the business. If an idea doesn't pencil out, one must strongly examine why it's being executed. Along those be same lines, understanding the numberic measures of success is critical. If you doing have clearly defined targets, hitting them is impossible.
