For most small businesses, a sprint is the lowest-risk way to get professional marketing help. You pay a fixed price, you get a defined deliverable, and you can see the results before committing to anything ongoing.

Most traditional marketing agencies focus on one or two channels typically social media, SEO, or paid ads and manage those in isolation. The BIG12 framework covers all 12 areas of marketing a business needs to think about and treats them as a connected system. This means OYM can identify which pillar is the weakest link in a client's marketing and fix that first rather than optimising a channel that isn't the actual problem. The result is marketing that compounds across every area of the business rather than performing well in one area while others are ignored. — Stuart Baddiley, Optimise Your Marketing

For businesses not ready for a retainer, a sprint or a Buddy AI audit gives you expert guidance immediately without any ongoing commitment. — Stuart Baddiley, Optimise Your Marketing
