Consultancy & Planning

For many businesses we act as their consultants, guiding their strategy development for all marketing activities. The provision of ongoing marketing support is essential to help your business attain your desired growth targets.

Our outsourcing options can be scaled up or down according to the needs of the business and your budget. LCM is able to work at the top level as strategy consultants or as a marketing director or we can manage ongoing projects or work on a specific self-contained project basis.

We work with you to find out what drives you and your business, and keep you on track. We’re often asked to work with companies as either alongside, or as an alternative to full-time marketing professionals in-house.

Here's a recent testimonial:

"For the last year, Lizz Clarke has provided invaluable support to my evaluation business in the arts & culture sector. Through a series of fascinating workshops, Lizz coached us to further professionalise our ways of working, particularly in the way we communicate with regular clients as well as prospective clients, from the pre-purchase stage through to the final stages of a project and, in turn, securing return custom post-project. 

"We have learnt that ‘marketing and branding’ doesn’t just apply to forward-facing work, it is a core part of a business that informs and enhances everything we do. As a result of Lizz’ interventions, we have become more confident in the way we present ourselves and our process, we have further packaged and articulated our ‘products and services’ portfolio, we have been able to expand our offer (and related revenues), as well as clearly articulating our customer promises, our values, our ideal working relationships, and our publicity priorities moving forward. 

"As a very small business, it is sometimes challenging to navigate realities to do with day-to-day business management and planning, as well as allocating time and resources to further business development; it can also be challenging to strike the right balance between accommodating clients’ expectations, and following one’s ‘gut’ and own aspirations. Thanks to Lizz’ ever-positive and practical approach, the development work conducted with her has felt not only manageable, actionable, and commensurate to our goals and capabilities, but also highly empowering, uplifting and gratifying. 

"We are now much more able to connect our intentions with the way we approach our work and our client relationships. We also feel that Lizz has completely demystified the concept of 'marketing' for us, and we are now confident to embed some of the marketing and branding tools that Lizz has demonstrated to us in our workflows. 

"We are delighted to have been able to benefit from Lizz’ wealth of knowledge and support over the last year, and it’s leaving us in much better stead to fulfil our future vision and excellence in our field. Thank you Lizz!"
