We recently engaged 'Think Beyond' to complete a 'Marketing Health Check ' for our organisation Family Care Group. We found the whole process very helpful, it forced us to reflect on where we are now, how we got here, and what we need to do to keep moving forward. The final reports recommendations were realistic, achievable and innovative. We found Merce Cozens a great 'critical friend'. Merce listened when we were speaking, she is not full of her own importance as (in my experience) some marketing 'experts' can be, and did bring added value to the process as she introduced us to other professionals in her network, who she felt may be able to help us with matters unrelated to marketing. She asked insightful questions, challenged some of our current approaches/attitudes, and delivered sensible recommendations on how we might improve our approach to marketing Family Care Group. In short, if you are looking for support with marketing, I would not hesitate in recommending Merece and her team at 'Think Beyond'.Andrew O'Reilly, Group Operations Director for Family Care Group More...

Merce at Think Beyond is, frankly, amazing at what she does. I received more value from her in two hours than I've received in two months from other marketing strategists, she's now my go-to for all things marketing strategy. Merce has a direct, results-based approach that wastes no time in identifying the best plan of action for a business. I feel full of confidence and motivation to forge ahead and grow my business as a result of Merce's marketing support, I cannot recommend her enough! More...

What makes a great website?
A website that is optimised for conversion is the best type of website. A cleverly crafted website with good searchability, easy to navigate, plenty of calls to action and an easy journey to payment if an online shop. A good website combined with marketing automation technologies can deploy real-time marketing to 'nudge' customers along the buying journey or encourage them to sign up to your mailing list. How many times have you been on a website where a chat box pops up asking if you need help?
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
The first stage would be to understand a little about their business, what they do, where their pain points are and any previous marketing experience they have had. The second stage is to understand their current challenges and if there are any frustrations with current or past marketing efforts. The third stage is to clearly understand what their budget is and the in-house support they have today, where it would fit with or support an external advisor.
What do you love most about your job?
Helping clients. Marketing is a science not an art. Many businesses employ a number of marketing agencies on substantial monthly retainers to provide, SEO, PPC, affiliate marketing, design, content, social media posts, PR support etc. We believe that marketing should work for the business and be aligned to sales to get the best outcome and return on investment (ROI). We would always suggest having a marketing strategy and ensuring that your marketing agencies are managed with targets aligned to your marketing goals.
Why should our clients choose you?
Think Beyond was founded on a philosophy of partnership and an ethos of ethics. We use the science of marketing to get the best return on your marketing investment (ROI). Think Beyond works with your team to achieve your marketing goals and our team of chartered marketers partner with business owners, CEOs and senior management team to accelerate your sales potential. We offer services in five areas: marketing consultancy and workshop training courses, marketing automation, digital strategy, inbound marketing and improving sales.
