How a Marketing Consultant in Colorado Springs Can Build Your Brand to the Next Level

No matter what business you’re in or how big or small your company is, you know how challenging it can be to design and execute the perfect marketing strategy. Enter a marketing consultant agency. These businesses have the knowledge and resources needed to help you enhance your marketing efforts. They can also save you time by executing campaigns that work so you can focus on other aspects of your business.

If you own a business in Colorado Springs and are interested in hiring a marketing consultant, this blog is for you. Hero Marketing Agency is here to break it all down.

Marketing in the Digital Age

Marketing in the digital age is a unique and constantly evolving practice — so much so that it can be challenging to keep up. There are too many easy ways to throw money at paid advertising on Google and Facebook, but that isn’t always the best solution.

At Hero Marketing Agency, we’re a business consultant taking a more personal marketing approach. We can identify ad spend waste, identify your core market and keywords, and retarget your ad spend to lower cost per click, increase clickthrough rates, and raise conversion rates.

Organizing Your Strategies for Optimal Results

We’ve noticed that many companies lack standard operating procedures (SOPs). You want to ensure your company has SOPS in place so that your brand voice is consistent across all platforms. If you need help establishing written SOPs, a consulting agency like Hero Marketing Agency can help.

The Role of Marketing Consultants

Being a business owner isn’t easy. There are so many tasks to complete, everything from taking care of your employees to launching effective marketing campaigns. When it all becomes too much, a marketing consulting agency can step in and help immensely.

Hero Marketing Agency, for example, will evaluate your website to identify any weaknesses in your Search Engine Optimization that negatively impact your search results and rankings. Google is constantly updating its algorithms. For example, the recent “helpful content” Google algorithm updates.

Many companies do not fully understand how these updates impact their websites. However, a marketing consultant can ensure your website stays strong in the rankings.

Cost Effectiveness

An additional perk of a marketing consultant is that they’re more cost-effective than hiring in-house talent. You don’t have to spend time or money onboarding them, and there are no payroll taxes or benefits to worry about.

Additionally, business consulting services are flexible, allowing you to scale services up or down as needed. Hero Marketing Agency, for instance, can come on to consult when you need assistance with implementing recommendations.

Heather Short-Davis

Client Strategist

Imagine it’s 2001, and you have a new, yet heavy, phone in your hand with the latest technology— get ready to be in awe — it has a single-color display! Instead of black text on a gray background, you get to look at black text on a blue background.

Yes, it sounds underwhelming, but that’s what level of tech we were excited about. It’s the same year wireless phone providers began to connect networks for text messaging. And it’s the same year Heather entered the marketing workforce.

She has had the benefit of experiencing first-hand the evolution and digitization of marketing tactics. From oil & gas to technology transfer, no industry has been left untouched from the vast increase in data now available at our business fingertips. As a data-driven marketer, Heather has not only an appreciation for, but also a solid understanding of tracking and analyzing data to devise strategies and evaluate performance.

At Hero Marketing Agency Heather collaborates with clients to help them achieve a sound strategy for marketing. First to define and distill their goals. Then to develop strategies for goal achievement, articulating objectives, tactics, and success metrics. Great strategists are dynamic storytellers who have the ability to make the incredibly complex feel simple.

A native Texan, Heather has recently moved back to Texas after 14 years in Northern Indiana. She graduated with a double major in marketing and advertising from Indiana University South Bend with scholarship awards. Her collegiate career began at the University of Texas at Austin, but life and her husband took their adventure north.

She is happy to be back in central Texas where they are close to family and do not need a snow blower in the garage. She enjoys emerging technologies and new consumer electronics. An avid runner, some of her best creative ideas have happened mid-run.
