In Fractional CMO, Marketing Strategy by Annie Serbinski

Are your marketing efforts missing the mark? Do you have a small marketing team that is frequently overwhelmed or no marketing team at all? Are inconsistent results making you frustrated? If you answered yes to any of those questions, you could be a perfect fit for our FCMO program. As a full-service agency, we can support your marketing efforts in any capacity. Whether you need us to step in as your marketing department or assist your existing team with their efforts, we can help.

Our FCMO service gives you access to an expert creative team who will help guide your efforts and provide tactical support. Michigan Creative can help push your business to the next level, from offering advice to tackling projects. Our process outlined below allows us to determine your specific needs and provide insight on how to coordinate your marketing efforts. 

Onboarding

Onboarding involves several meetings that will dive into your current efforts, what is and isn’t working, and where you’d like to be in the future. We get to know our clients inside and out before beginning any marketing campaigns. That way, we know exactly how to best position you within your industry and can determine the best tactics to reach your set goals and KPIs

Planning and Implementation

Following our discovery meetings, our team will craft a comprehensive marketing plan outlining strategies to be implemented over the length of the contract. We will map out what projects our team needs to complete and what your team can manage.

Checking In

Your assigned account manager will schedule regular calls with your team to chat about current efforts and how we can best coordinate with each other. We can hold meetings as often as weekly or as little as monthly, depending on your needs. 

Reporting

Our executive team will meet with you each month to evaluate results and review tactics for the following month. We’ll report what we’ve accomplished so far and demonstrate that we are on track to meet goals and KPIs. Both teams will stay updated on progress and give clear directions for the upcoming month.

Assessment

Every quarter, we take a step back and evaluate how our coordinated efforts measure against KPIs. 

  • Did we meet all of our goals? 
  • Are we getting the expected results?
  • Do we need to make any adjustments for the next quarter?

Taking the time to reflect is necessary to move your marketing efforts forward and achieve the desired results.

With Michigan Creative as your marketing expert, you won’t run in blindly without a plan. You’ll have an entire team to brainstorm fresh ideas and keep your efforts on track. Reach out to learn more about our FCMO service and see if it would be a good fit for your business.
