Marketing is more important to business than ever before and everybody is trying it. Many businesses are turning towards the growing trends of marketing outsourcing and marketing consulting. Why?

There are many reasons, but the main ones are:

  • Cost (controlling marketing costs, more accurate forecasting or budget blowouts)
  • Creativity (stop churning the same ideas and tired strategies year after year)
  • Expertise (professionals can get greater results, faster as they know what they are doing)
  • Capability (most businesses marketing is limited to the capabilities of its team)
  • Complacency (it all gets too hard or too boring)
  • Lack of results

If you need some results orientated, professional marketing for your business without the ongoing cost or committment of salaries, please visit our MKTG website: www.mktg.com.au - if you have any specific questions you can always email me ( full contact details are on website).

MKTG is a professional marketing, brand, public relations and online services company.

Tell me how you can help a US company from Australia. Please explain more about not having to pay salaries or ongoing cost-- what should we expect to pay. Can you be more specific as to what you offer...

I am really surprised by how few people responded to this post.

Did you get any offline nibbles?

Hey - have you tried hiring a freelancer? Instead of trying to design or write that logo or brochure yourself why not get someone else to do it?! Microsoft just launched a new site called http://www.taskmarket.com/ which is especially designed to be quick and easy for people who don't have a lot of time. I just listed a few projects on the site and I already have over 20 people asking to help me with my work. Anyway, check it out!

You can hire MKTG on a project to project basis or as a fully outsourced marketing business. You control the cost and therefore don't pay ongoing salaries, you pay for what you need to be done and not unnecessary staff.


With regard to what we offer: marketing, brand, public relations and online professional services - we consult to your company initially on site, work on your project and deliver results remotely. It keeps your costs down and controlled. We access all the social networking tools and skype etc so we are in constant communication. With the world becoming readily accessible we have several US based clients who are pleased with our pricing, results and service.
