Southampton Marketing

Computer with marketing banner

Marketing, advertising & sales, are three of the most important aspects of any business, whether you are based in Southampton or anywhere else in the word!

Without customers, there is no income, and therefore no business! However, there is plenty that you can do (and without spending a fortune) to make sure that your business has the best chance of success.

You will need to think about design, print, marketing materials, marketing strategy, advertising, how to find customers and how to keep them. This site is designed to help by highlighting the companies locally who can assist with your planning (see list of firms in Southampton below) and by providing the business information that you need.

Punch Above League with Kerry Marchbank

Punch Above League with Kerry Marchbank

Do you need to punch above your weight with marketing that will get you noticed and fast forward your growth?

I've been doing marketing for 25 years. I've had the fortune to help around 100 B2B service and solution brands to achieve their goals with knock your socks off marketing. But 100 isn't enough for me.

I know there are thousands of people struggling with their marketing. I hear the same problems and see the same blunders time and again. But it doesn't have to be this way, marketing really isn't as hard as you think. I promise!

So my mission is to help more people with their marketing. I want to help you punch above your weight with marketing that will put you and your business in a different league.

I am working on creating a course to teach solution and service orientated businesses a proven model so they can do their own marketing (I can only help so many people on a 121 basis and appreciate that the funds aren't always there to outsource)!

I am looking for people to test some of my material, give me honest feedback and hopefully testimonials that I can ultimately use to sell it. Members can learn from my strategies for free for a limited time, join us...
