Smart, Strategic Support
Customized strategic roadmaps and the experience to execute ... expertly.
Strategic Content Partnerships
Our happiest place is working with people doing good work on an ongoing basis. This is because once we get to know you and understand the heart of your brand, content flows with authenticity and impact. And it just keeps getting better.
HOW IT WORKS: Our partnership engagements typically start at six months, allowing us to develop your tailored Strategic Roadmap, and to deliver on an initial 3-4 months of content, so that we can see, and tune, results. You can then continue to retain our support, or fly on your own, with all the tools, template, and strategic guidance you need, right there in your roadmap. Contact us at hello@forgeandspark.com for a free consultation to discuss your partnership needs.
Our comprehensive Strategic Roadmaps for content and social media marketing typically include the following elements (tailored to your needs):
- A Brand Content & Competitive Audit
- Identification of Your Content Objectives, Key Results, and KPIs
- A Reporting & Analysis Framework
- Research & Development of 3 Audience/Buyer Personas
- Brand Messaging Framework & Story Pillars
- Your Channel Plan and Content Mix
- A Content Calendar for One Month
- A Content Amplification Plan including SEO recommendations and keyword research
- An Operational Plan including suggested tools, content team roles, and process
- A Brand Content Kit levelling up all your visual assets (logo, colour palette, typography, imagery) for online use plus social media templates you can use to produce premium content
