In a tight economic climate Marketing Makeovers is a virtual nationwide local area marketing team for hire.
Marketing Makeovers is a network of experienced and successful professional marketers living around Australia who have the revenue runs on the board across a broad range of industries, geographies and business sizes. It is our extensive reach and sharing within our network that allows us to deliver outstanding marketing services to businesses big or small across the country.
The core of our expert consultants came together when launching Telstra's mobile and broadband networks across metro, regional and rural Australia. Working with other large retail chains, franchisors/franchisees and independent store owners we realised there was often little sharing of good ideas from one geography to another and across other industries within communities. We also learned in dealing with the broader business community that any retail or service chain had stores that do not perform as well as others. Help for these poorer performers was all too often restricted by centrally located marketing departments themselves with financial restrictions limiting them from getting out and understanding the individual situation, the surrounding community and coaching the outlet to success.
For corporations and big business we offer a marketing reach around Australia that will allow you to maintain brand equity and yet derive a revenue stream through strong local area marketing for each outlet. Working face to face we can implement your campaigns or work with your outlets within their own budgets to improve their performance.
With medium and small business it does not matter if your just starting out, maintaining or wanting to grow we will bring new and proven ideas from around Australia to help you be successful.
Meet our brilliant and ever growing team.
