marketing strategy.
Marketing is more than running ads in the local paper or attending networking events or even handing out your business card to every person you meet. It is in fact the "big picture" process used to determine the best methods for selling and promoting your products and services.
At Ruby Porter, we help you reach your marketing goals by looking at the "big picture" and providing the best solutions to meet your needs. Your business and its needs are unique and we celebrate that. As a result, we deliver individualized solutions to help your business successfully reach its full potential. When done right, proper marketing planning increases awareness of your business and its brand and decreases the cost of your communications efforts.  | 6 easy steps for getting started:

why do you need a strategic marketing plan?
Would you build a house without blueprints? Would you fix a car without a manual? Chances are you wouldn’t do either without a plan or some guidance before getting started. Accordingly, you shouldn’t try to promote your business and its brand without a plan. Doing so only wastes your time and money.
Having a strategic marketing plan will give you direction on the appropriate methods for promoting your business and its brand efficiently and effectively. More efficiently because you won’t waste money on activities that don’t work, and more effectively because the activities you do implement will be streamlined and targeted.

when should you think about marketing?
We believe (and it happens to be industry standard) you should be thinking about marketing for your business and its brand before you ever spend a single dollar on promotional efforts. But, if you’ve already spent money without a plan in place, all is not lost. We can help steer you in the right direction no matter how far down the marketing “path” you may be.
