Strategy · Communication and marketing plans

When do you need a communication and marketing plan?

  • When actions are decided on the fly, without a shared goal.
  • When budget is spread across channels without knowing what each one delivers.
  • When every department presents the company in its own way.
  • When launches, trade shows or campaigns are always prepared in a rush.
  • When you need to show management what is being done and why.

A year of marketing shouldn’t be improvised every week

We turn your sales objectives into a communication and marketing plan with priorities, messages, channels, a calendar and a budget. Your team knows what to do at every stage, and management can see how each action connects to the business.

Starting point

We review business goals, audiences, offer, available resources and the results of previous actions.

Plan design

We define marketing goals, messages, channels, actions, owners, calendar and budget.

Tracking and adjustment

We set indicators and regular reviews so the plan can be corrected when the market or priorities change.

Inbound Marketing

Goals and KPIs

We turn sales objectives into marketing targets that are measurable and easy to track.

Inbound Marketing

Audiences and messages

We define who we are speaking to at each stage and what they need to hear to move forward.

Channel mix

We choose the channels that make the most sense for your market and the role each one plays.

What is the difference between a marketing plan and a communication plan?2026-09-25T21:17:24+00:00

The marketing plan sets goals, audiences, channels and budget to generate business. The communication plan focuses on what is said, to whom and when. We usually work on both together so messages and actions point in the same direction.

What period does the plan cover?2026-09-25T21:17:37+00:00

Usually one year, with more detail for the first quarter. It is then reviewed regularly to adapt it to results and market changes.

Do we need a fixed budget before we start?2026-09-25T21:17:51+00:00

No. We can start from a range and propose how to allocate it. Helping you decide where to invest is part of the work.

Does the plan include carrying out the actions?2026-09-25T21:18:04+00:00

The plan defines what to do, when and with which resources. Execution can be handled by your team or by Smart Team, fully or partly.

What do we receive at the end?2026-09-25T21:18:17+00:00

You receive the plan with goals, audiences, messages, channels, calendar, budget and tracking indicators, in a format your team can use day to day.

How will we know if the plan is working?2026-09-25T21:18:31+00:00

We define indicators for each goal and set regular reviews, so you can see which actions deliver results and what should be adjusted.

What do you gain from a communication and marketing plan?

You move from piling up one-off actions to working with a plan connected to your business goals.

  • Prioritise the actions with the greatest business impact.
  • Allocate budget with clear criteria.
  • Coordinate marketing, sales and management.
  • Plan ahead for launches, trade shows and campaigns.
  • Measure results and adjust in time.
