PAL had a diverse range of opportunities for growth, but prioritising and structuring the approach we took was key to building and maintaining traction.
We began working together with a marketing strategy workshop including group investors and the management team.
Prior to the workshop, we surveyed (anonymously if they chose to be) key members of the leadership, operations, training, technical and sales team to understand perceived strengths and weaknesses of the current approach and to allow conversation starters for the day.
On the day, we welcomed the full team to feed back on the follow areas:
/ The success of current marketing and lead-gen activities
/ Lead conversion rates
/ The current customer journey and any challenges within it
/ Appraised attractiveness of different market segments
/ Horizon planning – we talked through the macro environment and potential impacts on the future plan
/ We conducted a SWOT analysis, aligning PAL’s ability to respond to the opportunities
/ Finally, we prioritised market sectors and defined our approach to targeting growth within them
Following this basis, Concept Communications presented back a 12-month tactical plan to target each segment which is currently being deployed.
This was then delivered across 2 consecutive years to achieve 6.2X growth.
