Client examples

Marketing roadmaps


To build strong marketing roadmaps for Unilever’s key countries, our strategists joined local teams. We worked in priority markets such as India and Russia to build the local marketing roadmap for each brand. Working with the local leadership team, all marketers and agency partners, this transformed the effectiveness of their marketing.

Face to face or virtual?

We’ve been helping brands and teams create digital marketing roadmaps and tactical marketing plans since 2000. Depending on whether you’re in B2B, B2C or B2B2C marketing, we have different approaches ready for you. Our marketing strategists guide you and your team through the approach, and our project managers ensure you have everything you need. We can lead this face to face in a traditional workshop, or run it as a short set of virtual sessions. Simply pick the approach that’s right for your team.
