Title:Marketing Advice Needed

Location:Anywhere

Job Description

Hi there

I am at the early stages of researching and developing a new business and will need specialist marketing input as the concept progresses. To date I have defined and written up the concept in fairly broad terms (i.e. the idea/ inspiration behind the business, what it offers, who it's aimed at, how they will benefit and what I hope the business will achieve) but I believe my relatively unsophisticated approach would benefit from someone with a background in marketing who could perhaps add a more insightful and professional take on what the business represents.

To begin with I am looking for a marketing specialist to provide say 5 to 7 hours of advice/input on where I have got to so far with a view to developing an ongoing relationship with 1 or 2 individuals depending on how the idea develops.

Ideally It would be very helpful if the successful bidder could demonstrate a proven track record in helping small early stage businesses get off the ground -from defining the initial concept through to taking a proactive approach to PR and providing advice on how best to raise awareness through a combination of offline and online marketing methods.

Thanks
Gerard

Dear Gerard,

Can you please tell me the type "new business" that you are looking to get involved in. Without that information I feel that I may not be able to help you out in the long run.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Best regards

Charles Bows

I should have added to the job description that I am happy to answer questions through the private messaging system. Apologies for that oversight!
