What is a marketing communication strategy?
As your marketing communication compass, your communication strategy ensures that all internal stakeholders are strategically aligned. This will leverage each and every engagement with your target audience and accelerate your commercial goals.
A marketing communication strategy is a plan that outlines how a company will use various forms of communication to promote its products or services to its target audience.
The goal of a marketing communication strategy is to create a consistent and coherent message that helps the company achieve its marketing objectives. It usually encompasses target audience, messaging, channels, budget and evaluation.
At EC-PR we include a review of the business value proposition to ensure it is robust, realistic and relevant.

Developing marketing communication strategy & messaging
When it comes to developing a well-rounded and effective communication strategy, there are several key components that must be addressed.
Value proposition
Your value proposition is a simple statement that summarises what benefit someone will receive as a result of buying from you, that they cannot get elsewhere.

We help you to re-establish your value proposition – the reason why you exist and why your customers should care. Your value proposition should form the rallying point for everything the company says, does and develops. It keeps you focused and relevant.
Understanding your target audience
By drawing on the insight from within the business, we help you create detailed profiles for your target buyers, capturing their fears, motivations and aspirations. We call these target personas.
A persona is a fictional representation of your target buyer. They are not real people, but each persona description should be so complete that it feels like a real person.
Developing your messaging
There are four stages of the buying cycle, and you may know of them by the acronym AIDA (Awareness, Interest, Desire, Action). This is also known as the customer journey or the decision-making process.
Some journeys may be short, with a buying decision made in weeks, whilst some may be much longer and take months or possibly years! However long your customer journey is your messaging always needs to be specific, relevant, and compelling to each of these stages.
We help you to develop compelling messaging that speaks to the motivations, fears and/or pain points of your target persona(s) that will trigger action in thought, word or deed.
