Kick start our work together by meeting your “person”. They’re your primary point of contact, so you only need to communicate with them, and they’ll manage the tasks and other specialist team members as needed. Trust us, you’re going to love them.
This is the team of incredible experts in the background who will be pulled in depending on your requirements. Our squads work together on a set of clients so there is always coverage at our end to deliver for you.
Now that you have met the team we develop a plan of action based on your needs and where we can have the biggest impact. These decisions will inform our month-to-month deliverables, but you can customise this as much as you need each month.
The last thing is to give our team access to all the tools and accounts we’ll need to support your marketing – whether that’s just ad management or your entire marketing function from social account to reporting. Then we’re ready to go!
Kick start each month with a check-in from your marketing manager. Here we’ll prioritise the deliverables for the month ahead.
We deliver end-of-month reports on what we achieved and all the results from your live campaigns or ads – all in one interactive dashboard.
Your marketing manager will check in with you at least once a week so you know what is going live, what needs input and what you can sign off. A WIP check-in keeps us all across the details so you can bring up urgent changes and get prompt action.
If you aren’t ready to hire or don’t have capacity to manage a marketer, Virtual Marketers is the perfect solution to fill this gap.
Start with one Virtual Marketing Manager and scale if and when needed, based on your needs and requirements.
