Marketing agency offers expertise for free to help businesses in Southampton win more business and grow

A MARKETING agency is providing its expertise for free to help businesses in the south improve their marketing efforts.

Mitchell and Stones is hosting a two-hour Marketing Jumpstart Bootcamp to teach managing directors and business owners of all sectors everything they need to know about how to put together and execute a successful marketing strategy for their business.

The idea is to equip business owners with the tools they need to attract new customers, increase sales and grow their companies.

It will be hosted by Mitchell and Stones managing director, Josh Mitchell and strategic and operations director, Chris Stones, who both have experience in keynote speaking at several events including the Sussex Business Show and Hampshire Business Show.

Josh said: ‘A lot of feedback we get from people, whether it is our clients or people that we meet day-to-day, is that they are confused and concerned around how their marketing is performing and whether or not it is giving them any return. This is typically due to not having any structure, clear objectives and a plan to execute.

‘If you have anxiety around how effectively your brand is perceived in the marketplace it could make sense to spend the day with us.’

The workshop will take place from 9:30am until 11am on September 22 at Ocean Village Innovation Centre in Southampton, where the marketing agency’s office is based, and will be free for all to attend.

By the end of the workshop, attendees will understand the key components that make up a successful marketing strategy, understand how to set annual goals and objectives, learn accurate reporting techniques and be able to create an action plan for success.

Josh said: ‘You will gain some great knowledge to go back into your business and implement current tips, tricks and techniques to support brand growth and level up your marketing.’

It will be the fourth Marketing Jumpstart Bootcamp that the pair will have held, with previous workshops taking place at the OVIC in Southampton and the Village Hotel in Portsmouth.
