Here’s a question to ponder... what is your business’s voice?

❓What’s its message?
❓What’s its tone?
❓Where’s it going to take you?

▪️What are you doing or saying to make sure your voice is heard amongst all of the white noise on social media?

▪️Is your message clear and concise? Is it written with a purpose and an end goal?

▪️Is it appealing to your target market? Do you actually know who your target market are?

🔈What you’re saying, and how you’re communicating that message, is the key to success.

🔈Whether you’re attempting to bounce back post-Covid or gearing up for your best Christmas sales to date, you need to stand out in what is a more crowded and cut-throat arena than ever.

💷 It’s not about spending loads of money, it’s about making sure your voice is heard. We know that in these testing times, it’s about making money, not spending it.

📈If you’d like to find out more about creating a great positioning and marketing strategy, then get in touch. We’d love to hear from you and we’re ready to help!

Can the high street survive?

With the constant growth of online shopping and out of town retail parks, the squeeze is being put more and more on independent retailers.

But the good news is that they still very much have their place, and success can be enjoyed, provided they box clever.

It's not about going toe to toe with the big guns with their multi million pound budgets, it's about finding your niche and making your voice heard.

Personality and community is everything, and your marketing both online and offline should reflect that.

For a no obligation chat about your business and it's particular needs, message us or give us a call.

We'll even sort the ☕️... and a 🍩 or 🍪 if that's your thing!

Each week Nick O' Shiel, Chief Executive, Omagh Enterprise Company, blogs on issues related to enterprise, technology and the economy. This week Nick asks if the high street can survive.

A very thought provoking article by Omagh Enterprise on when you should outsource your social media.
We specialise in working alongside startups to get their social media channels off the ground. What's the point in having a nice website if you're not driving people to it?
We also love nothing better than really getting them firing and performing for our clients, getting them leads or sales.

Our advice would be to ask yourself how much time you are spending currently on managing your social media channels.
Then ask how much that time could be worth to you in terms of business development and sales if you had that time to focus elsewhere.

Suddenly you'll see that outsourcing is a cost-effective way of growing your business. You're still in control, there's just someone else doing the spade work for you while you reap the rewards!

Talk to us about a free, no obligation consultation to see how we could help you and your business, freeing you up for the things that really matter

Having an effective social media strategy can take your business to the next level. It helps legitimize your business, reach potential customers and promote your brand. While every business should be on at least one social media platform, social media can sometimes be overwhelming.

Check out this unique approach to customer service by a Chinese takeaway in Dublin.

Fair to say that Mr Lam has developed a style of its own!

On a serious note though, every single post you put on Facebook helps paint an impression of your business. Have you considered your style? Content? Tone?

Time flies by and, before you know it, it's been four months since your last Facebook post!

But what a busy four months it's been!

So with time to get our head above water, it's a good time to take stock...

Firstly, thanks to all of the businesses we have been working with over recent weeks. We've achieved some incredible results and the exciting thing is that we're only getting started!

From website content revamps to social channel management to marketing workshops and everything in between, I love how clients have embraced the power of marketing and have put their faith in me to help get them on the right track.

Now it's time to go up a few gears and take things to the next level... who's coming with us?

11/04/2018

Hello there, and thanks for stopping by. Allow us to introduce ourselves...

We are Engage-Creative, and we are here to change the way you do marketing. We will help you achieve your business goals in the most hassle-free and no-nonsense ways possible.

We have a particular interest in helping small businesses to grow and elevate their standing. We love helping the small guys to punch above their weight!

Outsourcing their marketing can be a hugely positive move for small businesses. You sit down to create content for social media posts or write content for a blog, and before you know it two or three hours have passed. Over the course of a week that could add up to ten or more hours.

Now think how effective those ten hours would have been if you had instead been out meeting potential customers, working on your own professional development and skills, or simply getting more product out the door to help keep the tills ringing.

Meanwhile you know that fresh and engaging content is being provided by us, the sort of posts, blogs and advertising campaigns that drive leads to your website or your front door.

Lots of companies provide digital marketing services. It’s an ultra-competitive and ever-expanding industry. So what makes us different from the chasing pack?

Our unique selling point comes through the experience of our founder, Ciaran Woods.

Calling on more than a decade of experience across the communications sector, he worked for 10 years as a journalist at provincial and national level before making the successful transition into marketing.

He has also provided training workshops for some of the country’s largest sporting bodies, and has made numerous appearances as an analyst and commentator across national media outlets. He is an accomplished event planner and has overseen a wide range of product launches, and is also highly experienced in crisis communications.

So what can we do for you?

There are plenty of agencies who will show you how to create pretty pictures for your digital marketing. But do they help you to set the tone for your business and focus on the language, the message, which you want to deliver, and the image you are seeking to paint for your clients?

We are a small agency and we like to keep it that way. We work with a diverse range of clients, both on an ongoing basis and as one-off workshops and consultations.

We are here to listen to your needs, and to design tailor-made solutions which are specific to your company’s needs and requirements.

So contact us today and start the exciting journey which will help your company to achieve new highs, and to keep punching above its weight by delivering some astute, tactical and hugely effective knockout punches!
