Marketing consultancy FAQs
Why do I need a marketing consultant?
A marketing consultant can be a valuable asset for a small business owner by providing expertise and guidance without the cost of a full-time marketing team. Many small business owners juggle multiple roles, leaving little time or resources to create and manage effective marketing strategies. A consultant brings fresh perspectives, industry insights, and targeted experience to identify the most impactful marketing efforts and prioritize activities that yield results. They can also analyse competitors, streamline your approach, and help you avoid costly trial-and-error.
What marketing services would benefit my business?
To determine the most beneficial marketing services for your business, we would start by booking in a call to get to know your business, where we would find out its unique strengths, challenges, and goals. This initial conversation helps us understand what’s most important to you. We will work with you to outline what type, and how much support you need and the cost for that help.
After our call, if you agree to work with Burst, we’ll conduct a comprehensive audit that includes analysing your current marketing efforts, examining your target audience’s needs, and researching what your competitors are doing. This research gives us a clear picture of where you stand in the market and highlights opportunities to differentiate and grow.
Once we’ve completed this deep dive, we’ll provide you with a tailored breakdown of recommended services, whether that includes SEO, optimising your website, social media, or other strategies. We’ll also outline realistic timelines and key milestones, so you know exactly what to expect and when. This structured approach ensures you receive the highest-impact services aligned with your business goals.
How will you measure success, and what kind of reporting can I expect?
How we measure success depends on the specific marketing services you choose to do and how your business currently tracks performance. We will work with you to define key performance indicators (KPIs) that align with your goals – whether it’s increasing website traffic, boosting engagement, improving lead generation, or other objectives.
For example, if our work focuses on SEO, reporting would typically include tracking metrics like organic traffic growth, keyword rankings, click-through rates, and on-page engagement. Each month, we would provide a detailed report highlighting these metrics, showing changes in search visibility, and outlining the top-performing pages and keywords. We also include insights into where potential improvements can be made, adjustments to the strategy if needed, and any emerging trends in your industry.
In addition to monthly reporting, we can set up more frequent updates if desired, ensuring you always have visibility into how our work is contributing to your business’s success. Our goal is not just to track numbers, but to turn these insights into actions that drive sustainable growth.
What is the expected timeline to see results?
The timeline to see results varies depending on the type of marketing strategy and how quickly recommendations are implemented.
To give you clear expectations, we outline both micro indicators (short-term signs that the strategy is on track) and macro indicators (longer-term success metrics). Micro indicators might include initial increases in website traffic, improved engagement rates, or early positive feedback from your audience. These indicators help confirm early on that our approach is effective.
Macro indicators, which show more substantial business impact, such as revenue growth, improved conversion rates, or sustained SEO rankings, typically take more time to develop as they reflect lasting changes. By tracking both micro and macro indicators, we provide a comprehensive view of your progress and fine-tune our recommendations as needed to keep everything on course.
What will the process of working together look like?
The process of working together is flexible and tailored to suit the level of consultancy you need, as we offer different packages based on your goals and desired level of support.
At the beginning, we’ll collaborate to understand your preferred communication style and establish a workflow that’s both efficient and effective. For some clients, this might mean regular check-ins and strategy sessions through Zoom, while for others, a phone call – or if local, face to face updates may be more suitable.
In general, our process follows a few core steps:
1st step – initial discovery. We’d start by conducting an in-depth discovery session to understand your business, challenges, and goals.
2nd step – strategy development. We then create a tailored marketing strategy based on your needs, industry insights, and competitor analysis.
3rd step – implementation planning. While we provide the roadmap and detailed recommendations, you or your team would handle implementation. However, we’re available for ongoing guidance to ensure the strategy is executed effectively.
4th step – Performance tracking and optimisation. We monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) and provide regular reporting to track your progress and fine-tune the approach as needed.
What are the costs for marketing consultancy?
Our pricing structures are flexible and designed to align with the level of consultancy support you require. We offer different packages based on your business needs, goals, and the depth of engagement you’re looking for.
For businesses needing a foundational strategy or a one-time audit, we have entry-level options that provide essential insights and actionable recommendations. For those seeking more ongoing, hands-on guidance, we offer comprehensive packages that include regular strategy sessions, progress tracking, and detailed performance reports.
During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and budget to determine the best pricing plan for your needs. This way, you receive the optimal level of support to drive real, measurable results.
Do you offer any guarantees or success benchmarks?
Whilst we don’t offer any specific guarantees, since marketing success can be influenced by many variables, we do set clear benchmarks and success indicators to track progress. We monitor both micro results (early indicators like increased engagement, traffic spikes, or improved keyword rankings) and macro results (long-term goals such as lead generation, conversions, or revenue growth). These micro indicators help us identify quickly if our approach is on the right track, while macro results give us a fuller picture over time.
Marketing often requires patience, as some strategies, especially SEO or content marketing, take time to gain traction. To keep everything moving forward, we conduct regular reviews and adapt as needed. Optimisation is a key part of our process; by analysing performance and making adjustments, we ensure the strategy evolves with your needs and continues to deliver measurable, impactful results.
What sets you apart from other marketing consultants?
What sets me apart as a marketing consultant is my broad, hands-on expertise and a deep commitment to helping small businesses thrive. With a diverse marketing background, I’m able to approach your business from multiple angles and create a well-rounded, holistic strategy – something that can sometimes be missed by specialists focused on only one area.
I’m not just a consultant; I’m also a small business owner myself. I’ve implemented the same strategies I recommend for my clients in my own business, giving me real-world insight into what works and how to adapt for practical, tangible results. Over the years, I’ve worked with both global companies and startups, so I bring a wealth of experience from varied contexts, understanding both the bigger picture and the unique needs of a smaller brand.
My dedication goes beyond delivering strategies; I’m genuinely passionate about helping other small businesses grow because I know that, in turn, it strengthens our community and helps my own business succeed too. I’m ready to work hard for your success, bringing the same level of care, commitment, and adaptability to your business as I would to my own.
