Your marketing department gives you a platform. Yet it’s incredibly common for qualified, hard-working digital marketing teams to struggle to produce results that fully support their company’s business goals.

Why? Are they simply not working hard enough? Do you have the wrong people in those roles? Or is it something more fundamental to how your business operates?

Strategic alignment matters.

Most businesses understand the need for the strategic alignment of their structure and resources with their goals and business environment. Many even take measures to improve that alignment at a high level, hoping for watershed effects throughout the company. But when your needs are specific, it’s wise to look at specific solutions.

People strategy supports business strategy.

People strategy isn’t just about hiring; it’s an approach to planning for and managing your business’s most important asset. Crafting one that flows from and facilitates your business strategy is how you avoid problems like:

  • Chronic underperformance

  • A team structure that doesn’t support your goals

  • A fundamental disconnect with strategic initiatives

  • A culture that is pulling your team off course

Whether you’re starting from scratch or facing expensive and frustrating dysfunction, we have the tools and experience to bring transformational change to your business. Most business problems are people problems in disguise, so everything we do is designed to bring your people strategy and implementation into alignment with your business goals.

Building Teams

You’ve invested time, energy, and a whole lot of capital in building a business. How well you are able to market it will make or break your launch and the early stages of your growth. But how do you build the marketing team you need to succeed? Who is your first hire? How can you build a people strategy that supports your business goals, scales with your growth, and is accountable to your key metrics?

Optimizing Teams

Does it seem like you keep pouring money into marketing without seeing results—or at least not the results you need? There are a range of factors that can cause dysfunctional marketing departments, but all of them are fixable. Whether it’s poor productivity, misalignment with strategic goals, the wrong team structure, or a culture breakdown, we can help plan and execute a fix.
