stratique's posterous http://stratique.posterous.com Most recent posts at stratique's posterous posterous.com Wed, 07 Sep 2011 08:00:00 -0700 It’s really happening! Team Stratique are running for charity!! www.stratique.com http://stratique.posterous.com/its-really-happening-team-stratique-are-runni http://stratique.posterous.com/its-really-happening-team-stratique-are-runni

It’s really happening!

Last week, in a moment of madness, the idea of doing a fun run was batted around. It all got a bit out of hand and we ended up agreeing to do 10k run! This seemed reasonable enough until the idea of a half marathon cropped up! Somehow, due to the competitive nature of our office we decided we would do one … no no … lets do both! So here we are in our first week of training. We have just set up our just giving page www.justgiving.com/stratique as we are raising money for Midlands Air Ambulance and signed up for our 10k run in Kingsbury water park on the 27th November 2011. With new running trainers brought we (Andy, Mel, Charlotte and Graham) are starting to do a mile run a week, and will increase it by half a mile each week! What a plan!

We have built up a really good relationship with Sofia at the Midlands Air Ambulance so they were our first choice charity when it came to deciding who to run for. The fundraising aim is to raise £1250, as it costs this much to buy a helmet for the Helicopter Pilots who work tirelessly saving lives on a daily basis

The Midlands Air Ambulance is the only Charity responsible for funding and operating three Air Ambulances serving the communities of Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands. This constitutes the largest air ambulance operating region in the UK. 

What is not widely known is that Midlands Air Ambulance receives no Government or National Lottery funding. £6 million is needed each year to keep its three Air Ambulances operational which is donated entirely by the public and local businesses.

Wish us luck, come and support us on the day and, if possible please give generously to this great cause.  Hopefully you will never need the Air Ambulance but, it's good to know they are on hand if you ever need them! www.justgiving.com/stratique.>

Mon, 06 Jun 2011 07:56:00 -0700 Brand Identity and logo design to boost your Midlands business. http://stratique.posterous.com/brand-identity-and-logo-design-to-boost-your http://stratique.posterous.com/brand-identity-and-logo-design-to-boost-your

What does your logo design and brand identity say about your business?

Your logo design is your trust mark. It represents what your brand identity stands for. If your logo design is outdated or tired, this is how your business brand identity will be perceived.

Stratique MarketingDesign and PR helps companies in the Midlands and around the UK develop stronger and more engaging brand identity and logo designs. We help businesses develop a stronger sense of what makes them unique and convey this through the design and tagline development process. Unlike many graphic designers, because of our deep rooted background in brand management, we understand company branding / brand identity development plus product branding / logo design and the resulting logo design will become your trusted mark, to be used throughout all of your design and marketing communications differentiating you in a crowded marketplace.

Branding is extremely important to your companies profile and the logo can be the main driver of this. If you look at some of the most successful companies like Coca Cola, Nike and Ford, their logos have become synonymous with their company and brand, so its important for your company to have a well designed logo. 

Please call 0845 226 3095 for a no obligation logo design or brand identity design quotation

Mon, 28 Feb 2011 01:23:00 -0800 Want to know how to get more targeted web traffic in 7 simple steps? http://stratique.posterous.com/want-to-know-how-to-get-more-targeted-web-tra http://stratique.posterous.com/want-to-know-how-to-get-more-targeted-web-tra

Its pretty straight forward really, despite what many SEO and web design companies say:

 

1    Research what keyword terms terms you want to be found on: e.g.: Internet Marketing Plan

2    Add what regions you want to be found on e.g. Midlands:   Internet Marketing Plan Midlands

3    Update your on-page content with relevant and interesting content

4    Ensure your web designer is including your keywords in your meta data coding

5    Ensure your on-page content includes lots of good quality relevant text links

6    Keep adding backlinks to your website

7    Monitor your progress, track competitors and repeat the process.

 

It's not rocket science but it is time consuming and requires a reasonable amount of technical expertise

 

Type in you main product or service now and see if you rank on the first page of Google.

 

If you don't appear on page 1 then you are missing out on potential new clients every day.

Are you also hoping to grow in 2011?

 

Firstly well done for weathering the storm of the worse recession in living memory. Many companies have withdrawn to the extent where they have had to close down.

 

If you are hoping things will get better then you are in the majority!  But things have changed.  Market conditions are tougher than ever, and everyone has to work smarter to land new business.

 

There is a small minority of successful companies who have moved from being product and service led to market driven. These companies aren't hoping for change, they are actively pushing their boundaries and conducting regular systemised awareness and relationship building on a weekly basis. 

 

Many of our clients had a design agency,a marketing consultant or a web designer,  but they were not driving in more leads, more customers and converting more sales. 

 

If you want to discuss how Stratique can drive more low-cost sales leads for your company then please call today.  Our low-cost sales lead generation packages include weekly telemarketing, direct mail follow-ups, email warm-ups, and telephone appointment setting and include monthly board reporting.   A powerful professional solution.

Tue, 08 Feb 2011 05:13:00 -0800 Web Design is just another string to Stratique's bow ... http://www.stratique.com/web%20design%20services.html http://stratique.posterous.com/web-design-is-just-another-string-to-stratiqu http://stratique.posterous.com/web-design-is-just-another-string-to-stratiqu

Web design is a very competitive and saturated market in the Midlands. With advances in modern web design software packages, DIY web design is now a reality, which many graphic designers and one man bands now use to make attractive websites.

However this approach is unlikely to get you high up the search engine rankings, or equip you with the knowledge on how to attract more visitors and convert them into paying customers.

Graphic website design is just one small part of the internet marketing mix. The main critical success factors lie with integrating your web design strategy and your web copywriting into your web design as a process driven business activity.

Not only will you need eye catching graphic design and a web design navigation system that makes it simple for your users to find the right information, but unless you give your visitors the right information for their specific needs your web design will be ineffective.

As we are an agency we can offer much more then web design. We can manage your website to ensure that it is regularly updated, Search Engine Opimisation, and Social Media that links to your website.

If you are tired of an under performing web design or e-commerce website and want to start generating cash for your business website, please call Stratique Marketing And Design on 0845 226 3095 for a free consultation on how to develop your web design

Why Do Customers Leave You?

The minority will leave due to a bad experience.  Others will leave because they have no emotional connection to your brand and so therefore only consider price, but most (some surveys say as many as 70%) of the customers and clients whose business you lose take it elsewhere because they simply feel neglected, anonymous and unimportant to you.

Doesn't it therefore make sound business sense to communicate with them every month by a variety of method, from email, personalised letters, telephone "research" calls and through social media groups?

 

Is customer loyalty management a part of your 2011 marketing plan?  If not, it should be!

 

Not got the time or resources? Call the Stratique Marketing, design and PR team today. Our low-cost client retention communications packages start from just £99/week

The relationship that we build with your company is also key.

We also look at what is being successful and also what is not, and then adapt the plan to suit what is working well so you get the most out of your marketing budget.

We can also offer a printing service for any of your needs. This goes hand in hand with our events management capabilities. We can offer the whole package for your event, we can organise it, print all or the invites and advertising, do pre and post event PR, send out all the invitations, and run the event. No event is too big or too small either. We have local contacts that help us run larger events using audio visual technology to really give your event the ‘WOW’ factor. We can also source light weight aluminium stands, ideal for the entrance of the event or for exhibitions, that slide together and disassemble to a small package that is durable and easy to store so it can be used again and again.

Fri, 14 Jan 2011 02:46:00 -0800 Two ways to grow your Business Rapidly http://stratique.posterous.com/two-ways-to-grow-your-business-rapidly http://stratique.posterous.com/two-ways-to-grow-your-business-rapidly

By offering a complete targeted design and marketing solution, Stratique will give you more effective creative design and marketing results for less cost. In the midlands there are a lot of B2B companies and that’s where our real specialities lie, although B2C marketing is fully within our repertoire.   We will implement strategies to help you generate more leads, commence a dialogue with those leads and then introduce conversion strategies to turn them into loyal customers. Our intention is to ensure your marketing budget goes further than ever before. Stratique will help you develop and test sound marketing strategies to then up sell and cross sell additional products and services with sales and profit growth as the key driver.

Stratique will also help to position your brand correctly, improve the desirability of your products, packaging and services, and improve your customer relations through regular communications.

Growing your business can be a daunting and sometimes confusing and complex subject. This aims to break the process down into its simplest form so that you can plan your marketing activities with these main elements at your focus.

Its rather very simple

 

Your revenue stream relies on customers to pay you for goods and services and can be expressed as a simple equation:

Number of customers x Average cost of each transaction x Frequency of annual purchases = Annual revenue potential.

 

So if you have 100 customers spending £100 3 times a year with you then your revenue would be

 

100 x £100 x 3 = £30,000

 

Understanding this dynamic is extremely important to growing your business and developing your business growth strategies. Most companies will focus on growing their number of customers. In this scenario following a marketing campaign a 10% growth in the number of customers would produce a growth in revenue thus:

 

110 customers (10%) x £100 x3 = 33,000

Giving an annual increase of £3000

 

When you take into account the cost of the campaign and some future customer fallout then the scenario is break even at best.

 

Now look what happens when the marketing campaign focuses on all 3 factors; Number of customers, improving the frequency of purchases and also up-selling and cross-selling strategies to increase the average value of each transaction:

 

A 10% increase in the number of customers and average transaction value, plus increasing the frequency from 3 times a year to 4 times a year will see an exponential business growth

 

110 customers buying £110 worth of goods 4 times a year =

110 customers x £110 x 4 times a year = £48,400

 

Giving an annual increase of £18,400

 

Armed with this knowledge we can look at online and offline marketing growth strategies to generate leads for new customers, and develop existing business opportunities through regular communications with existing customers.
