Quill Shift LLC
Business efficiency and marketing consulting
When do you know it’s time to bring in an expert?
Your Time is Valuable
You’re at the point where you feel like you are wasting time trying to do all the marketing yourself.
Not the Right Customers
Attracting people is not the problem, but now you’re at the stage where you want to attract the best clients and partners and the same strategy isn’t working.
Losing Sleep
There are hundreds of things that can keep you up at night. Wondering if something got done should not be among them.
Too Many Systems
You’re not afraid of technology and systems, but you feel like there are too many and they’re not working together, making things that should be easy more complicated.
Decision Paralysis
Too many choices = no choice. Spending too much time making a choice takes away from the valuable time your marketing needs to build trust and bring in business.
Going it Alone is...Lonely
You’re doing the damn thing, but you’re also not afraid to have smart people around you on your team helping you make educated decisions and implementing them so you can give more time to the big picture.
Business efficiency and marketing consulting so that you can spend less time managing your business and more time giving your customers the best service.
What we do for you
Business Operations Management
Assessment of strengths and outline of what to do to shore up weaknesses including technology suggestions and deployment to increase business workflow efficiencies and productivity.
Marketing Strategy
Consultations ranging from identifying ideal customers, website analysis and suggestions for content and workflows, social media branding guidelines, customer journey mapping, and content marketing execution.
Website Development
Whether it’s a one-page website because you’re just getting started but know you need a presence online you 100% own, or a revamp of a 10-year-old site that needs a complete overhaul, we can support you.
Email Marketing Deployment
Email is still the best ROI when it comes to customer loyalty and engagement and sales. It also still has the largest share of consumers worldwide, which means no matter what email marketing should be a part of your strategy.
Customer Acquisition Research
Understanding who your customers are, how they are finding you, and why only strengthens your ability to attract more of your ideal client while saving you time and money.
SMART Goals Mapping
You can’t know where you’re going if you don’t have a plan to get there and goals to reach. And how do you know when to celebrate successes – or what constitutes a success – if you don’t have milestones to hit? But not all goals are equal, and that’s where SMART comes in to combine purpose, focus, and action.
