You've laid the groundwork in the first 30 days. What comes next? The 60-day mark is where you build real momentum.

In a 30/60/90-day plan, the middle phase is about expansion and optimisation. You've gathered initial data and insights, and now it's time to use them to scale what's working and refine your approach.

Your focus for days 31-60 should be to:
Analyse and Adapt: Review the results from your first month. Which channels and messages performed best? Double down on those.
Expand Your Content: Introduce new content formats or topics based on what your audience has responded to.
Optimise Campaigns: Tweak your ad targeting, landing pages, and calls-to-action to improve conversion rates.

This phase transforms your quick wins into sustainable growth. It's about being agile and making smart, data-driven decisions to amplify your success.

Is your marketing strategy stuck in the past?

A common mistake many businesses make is creating a marketing plan and then never touching it again. But the market, technology, and your customers' behaviours are constantly changing. What worked last year, or even last quarter, might not work today.

Failing to adapt means you risk:
Becoming irrelevant as competitors embrace new trends.
Losing connection with your audience as their needs evolve.
Wasting your budget on outdated tactics and channels.

An effective marketing strategy is not a static document; it's a living one. It requires regular review, analysis, and a willingness to pivot based on performance data and market shifts.

Stay ahead of the curve by building adaptability into your planning. Our free Marketing Hub Workshop teaches you how to create a flexible 12-month marketing strategy using an agile 90-day planning cycle, ensuring your marketing stays effective and relevant.

What does success look like for your marketing? If you can't answer that with a specific number, you're likely not setting proper goals.

Marketing Tip: Vague objectives like "increase brand awareness" or "get more leads" are not goals; they are wishes. Effective marketing campaigns are built on SMART goals: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound.

For example, instead of "get more leads," a SMART goal would be: "Increase qualified marketing leads from our website by 15% in the next 90 days."
This clarity allows you to:
Focus your efforts on specific outcomes.
Accurately measure your return on investment.
Understand what is working and make data-driven adjustments.

Without measurable goals, you're simply hoping for the best. With them, you have a clear roadmap to success.

Want help setting goals that drive real results? Our free Marketing Hub Workshop will guide you in creating a 12-month marketing strategy, broken down into clear, actionable 90-day sprints.

How do you start a new marketing plan? The first 30 days are all about building a solid foundation for success.

Instead of trying to do everything at once, use the first month of your 90-day plan to focus on clarity and quick wins. This sets the stage for everything that follows.

Your 30-day focus should include:
Auditing: Review your current marketing performance. What’s working? What isn’t?
Defining: Confirm your target audience and key messaging. Are they still relevant?
Planning: Set clear, measurable goals for the next 60 days based on your audit.
Executing: Launch one or two small, manageable initiatives to build immediate momentum.

By dedicating the first month to foundational work, you ensure the rest of your plan is built on data and clear objectives, not assumptions.

Ready to map out your first 30 days and beyond? Our free Marketing Hub Workshop is designed to help you build an effective 12-month marketing strategy using our proven 90-day planning framework.

Do you know what your competitors are doing right now? Ignoring them is a costly mistake.

Many businesses focus so intently on their own operations that they forget to look at the competitive landscape. Failing to understand your competition means you're missing out on crucial insights.

By analysing your competitors, you can:
Identify gaps in the market that you can fill.
Understand what's working (and not working) for them, saving you time and money.
Benchmark your own performance and set realistic goals.
Differentiate your brand by highlighting what makes you unique.

Keeping an eye on the competition isn't about copying them; it's about learning from them to make your own strategy stronger.

Our free Marketing Hub Workshop can help you build a robust plan that considers the entire market. We'll guide you in creating a 12-month marketing strategy, broken down into clear 90-day sprints, to give you a competitive edge.

Does your brand look the same on your website, your social media, and your emails? If not, you might be confusing your customers.

Marketing Tip: Brand consistency is not just about using the same logo everywhere. It's about creating a seamless and recognisable experience for your audience across every single touchpoint. This includes your tone of voice, colour palette, imagery, and messaging.

When your branding is consistent, you build trust and recognition. Your audience knows it's you, whether they see a post on LinkedIn, receive a newsletter, or visit your website. This familiarity is crucial for staying top-of-mind and turning potential customers into loyal ones.

Don't let a fragmented brand identity weaken your marketing efforts. A unified presence is a powerful one.

Want to learn how to build a strong brand identity and integrate it into a cohesive marketing plan? Our free Marketing Hub Workshop will show you how to create a 12-month strategy, broken down into manageable 90-day sprints.
