Start with what your business is trying to achieve. From there comes a strategy that serves that goal, a clear understanding of how the marketing works and why, and a plan you can actually carry out.
Ads get switched on because a rep called. A website gets rebuilt because it looked dated. Email gets sent because it is Tuesday. None of it is attached to what the business is actually trying to achieve this year, so nobody can say whether it is working, or what it is for.
Our approach begins with strategy first.
Strategy first, then the mix that serves your goal. Website, search, ads and email each play a part when the plan calls for them, in the measure that serves the goal.
Start here.
Your goal in your own terms, how enquiries arrive today, and a clear plan on who does what. Out of that comes a written plan that serves your goal.
The place every enquiry lands.
One fast, clear site that captures the enquiry and hands it to your CRM, booking or job system. Every channel below sends people here. See small business website design.
The channel that compounds.
Found by people already looking, without paying per click. Local search and Google Business Profile, plus the content, strategy and technical SEO that improves and builds rankings over time.
Demand you can turn up and down.
Enquiries quickly, adjusted weekly. The platform follows who you need to reach.
Keep the customers you win.
Flows and campaigns on whichever platform fits, Klaviyo email marketing, Mailchimp or others, that turn your customer list into repeat revenue.
A plan is only useful if the business can carry it out. Before anything is recommended, the strategy is checked against four things most marketing plans never mention.
How many hours a week your business can genuinely give this, and what happens to the plan in a busy month.
Who answers the enquiries, who approves the ads, who supplies the photos and the stories. If that person does not exist yet, the plan accounts for it.
A budget the business can sustain for long enough to learn from, tied to a goal that is worth it, rather than a number pulled from a proposal.
Every activity in the plan can be traced back to the goal. If it cannot, it is not in the plan.
One written document that says what the business is trying to achieve and exactly how marketing will serve it.
What the business is trying to achieve, in your words, and by when.
How enquiries arrive today, what is working, what is missing.
Which of the five apply, how much of each, and if, why or how each one serves the goal.
Time, people and money, and an honest view of whether it is achievable now.
What success looks like, and the few numbers that will show it.
The channels and ideas deliberately left for later.
Every business is different, so these are not promises, but they are real.
Dedicated account rep, personal service and great understanding of our business goals.

The team was able to really use the Facebook advertising platform to benefit us in ways we hadn’t even seen before.

Some of this work was delivered under our BidPixel and Tradies Boost names, which are now part of Nooma Logic. Same team, same accounts, one name.
There is no fixed-price package to fit into. The Clarity Session comes first, and its job is to find the opportunities, minimize waste and set out clear steps for growth. The budget is then matched to your business and its goals, not the other way round.
Paid channels can bring enquiries within the first few weeks, then improve as the data builds. Search and local SEO are slower and usually show movement over months. The plan says which is which for your business.
No. The Clarity Session is a one-off workshop with you, and you leave it with a written marketing plan that says what the work involves and how long results take. If you then choose to continue, the level of support is agreed with you and laid out in a plan, rather than fixed in a contract you did not shape.
That is the point of step two. Enquiries go into your CRM, job system or booking tool, not into a spreadsheet nobody checks. ServiceM8, Shopify, Klaviyo and the usual CRMs are all familiar ground.
Then that is the advice. If the website cannot handle the traffic, or the numbers do not support paid channels yet, the plan will say so and suggest what to do first.
A Clarity Session works out what your business is trying to achieve, what it can realistically put into marketing, and the strategy that best serves that. You come away with a written plan whether or not you go any further.
