Turn Uncertain Marketing Into a Confident Growth Plan

A well-executed strategic plan naturally strengthens your pipeline and optimizes client acquisition for a more predictable return from your marketing investment

Does this sound like you?

Tactical Overwhelm

The world of marketing has gotten infinitely complex since digital entered the landscape, and now there's AI to transform how we work. You consider yourself savvy but if you're honest, you don't have a documented strategic plan connecting your tactics to business objectives which leaves you feeling a little uneasy.

Lack of Integration

Your business has marketing platforms in place but they lack strategic alignment, leaving you to cobble together data sources to understand your true marketing value. And without integrated, systemized automations to capture and nurture your pipelines, its unclear if your marketing investment is driving growth within your ecosystem.

Uncertain Returns

You might be holding back on marketing because cashflow is tight and you want predictable results, or overspending on too many tactics because something's working—you just can't tell what. You know it's time to level up, but without strategic planning and a framework you can measure against, it feels like guesswork.

What would happen if you got clear on the value of your marketing investment?

  • Finally understand the true value of your marketing investments and efforts

  • Drastically reduce uncertainty with predictable growth planning

  • Free up your time and mental space for other priority strategic business decisions

When we work together, your business receives a roadmap to build predictable growth, foundational documents that act as a guidepost, and a way to measure what's working.

Your business could be better in just 90 days. I am here to help guide you through the process to quick wins and repeatable success.

THE L.E.A.P. METHOD

When we work together, you'll always know what's coming next! My process is simple, structured, and designed to give you clarity and results without overwhelm. The L.E.A.P. Method is a comprehensive 90-day strategic planning engagement that transforms uncertain marketing into confident business growth.

Consultation and Intake

The first step is simple. Reserve your free 45-min consultation today. We’ll use this time to dive into your business objectives, challenges, and vision for the future. This session is all about understanding where you’re coming from and what success looks like for you.

Once we decide to work together, I'll send contract, invoice and intake form to get us started. The intake form fills in all the gaps we didn't get to cover in our consultation so that I have a wholistic starting point to understand your current business situation, marketing investment and efforts.

Limit Focus

We establish clear commercial or business objectives and secure stakeholder buy-in to ensure strategic alignment from the start. All L.E.A.P. plans are structured to deliver on a single objective no matter how big or small.

Establish a Clear Plan

We then outline your business's critical factors to achieve the objective and work to identify and focus in on the specific sales or marketing strategies that are imperative to measurable success.

Asset Creation

We develop a content map that organizes promotional messages and build a 6-month tactical plan with a balanced omni-channel approach laddered to strategy.

Progress Review

We establish a metrics framework that ensures your tactical plan is consistently measured and evaluated against established critical numbers. We want want to celebrate growth, so let's track it!

If you’re here, it’s because you’re a driven and heartfelt business owner or stakeholder.

You're juggling marketing tactics and tools but lack the strategic planning to tie them to your commercial objectives. And, like many, you’re probably just searching for an easier way to keep opportunities flowing and nurtured so that you can simply focus on serving your clients with ease.

Here's some feedback I've heard over the years...

It's not every day that you come across a talent like Melissa. I had the pleasure of working with Melissa on digital strategies/campaigns. I was always particularly impressed with her ability to manage notoriously challenging clients in an efficient and graceful way. She's especially adept at helping a client set goals, and working with the team to build a strategy to meet or exceed those goals.

and this...

I have had the pleasure of working with Melissa Hindle for 8 years. As my account manager, she was in charge of project management, client reporting and handling the day-to-day needs of our organization. Rather than simply being a gatekeeper between her internal team and our business, she served as more of a strategist, essentially becoming an extension of my marketing team. One of her strongest qualities is her attention to detail and her unparalleled ability to multi-task.
