Best question of the night
So many great questions were asked, choosing a winner was super tough.
This one really got our marbles rattling though and got the choccies. (Choccies being a SUP voucher from the champs at WhatSUP Paddleboards)
"I work in marketing for a national healthcare company, with three boutique businesses in WA, and one business we market nationally. At the moment, I've been asked to market our three WA based businesses, while not pissing off our national business market.
Our national marketing model is very established, and has been around for twenty years. Our two latest additions to the business are quite new, since 2017.
A lot of the business that refer to us already offer some of the services we are now looking to advertise.
So I need to put together a marketing strategy that will improve leads nationally, and then locally focus on building leads in specific niche markets without hurting the national business."
What a doozey.
