How to Develop A Marketing Milestone Program
Which opportunities should you seize? What are your major marketing concerns? How can you use this milestone occasion to address these concerns?
The Kullberg Consulting Group (KCG) will work with you to answer these questions and implement the right solutions. KCG will start by learning about your company, its history and its current issues and challenges. With an independent and unbiased eye, candor will flourish.
We will first conduct research to evaluate the needs and personality of your organization and determine how marketing your milestone will contribute to your continued success. A fully integrated, personalized menu of events, efforts and activities will be designed with specific recommendations for action. We will work with you to choose the elements of your program, then implement this program.
