How Graham's supports the business · 01

Brand & marketing

Build visibility that matches the business you actually want.

Marketing is not a single channel and it should not run separately from the business plan. Graham's looks at the mix of activity already in place, what is producing customers, what is duplicated and what support will genuinely help.

A broader marketing picture

Google and search, social media, directories, print and signage, referrals, commercial relationships, community networks, direct outreach, websites and vehicle or uniform branding can all play a part.

Match activity to direction

The right marketing mix depends on the work the franchisee wants, the area they want to service, current capacity and the type of customer the business is trying to attract.

Measure what is working

Marketing should be reviewed against enquiries, quoted work, won work, recurring customers and the quality of opportunities created—not simply clicks or impressions.

Coordinate local and Group activity

We look at what the franchisee is already doing and where Graham's can provide useful assets, campaigns, commercial activity or other support.

Your Graham's Discovery Foundation

We start with a Discovery Foundation.

We do this with you, to help you. The Discovery Foundation is a structured review of the business as it actually operates today. For marketing, that means looking across paid and unpaid activity rather than assuming the answer is simply “more leads”.

We do it with you, to help you understand the business and decide what support is actually useful.

Why this matters

A healthy marketing program uses more than one vector and is connected to the operator's actual business plan.
