Marketing

We create the intersection between business, creativity and technology.

We collaborate with clients to create innovative products and immersive experiences. Our core team is all about strategy, and our network of creators can come together to suit any project that a brand needs help with.

 

Marketing Consultancy

In this complicated and noisy world, one where attention has become a resource, we have to be really clear about what we want the customer to know about us. So it takes a lot of time and effort to develop and execute on a marketing strategy that resonates with your intended audience.

Brand Consultancy

Branding is more than a name and logo. A brand is created and influenced by people, visuals, culture, style, perception, words, messages, PR, opinions, news media and nowadays, social media.

A brand needs constant nurturing, support, development and continuous care in order to thrive and grow.

Website Development and Digital Strategy

Companies often think that dumping information on people hoping something will stick will get their attention. What’s really needed is information which is relevant to and entice visitors to take action. That is achieved by using a clear and deep understanding of how the human eyes and brain works together in taking action.

 

Our approach is simple – to thoroughly realize an organization’s culture and business strategy in order to define a fresh marketing approach, refined positioning, targeting and lead generation. Once the foundation has been set, we work with internal and external stakeholders to increase knowledge and application of marketing techniques, and ensure compatibility and sustainability with the company’s long-term business goals.

 

Operational Consulting and Executive Coaching

Our VCP team has extensive expertise and experience in multiple industries and business areas, and as such can offer you support in all steps of your path to success, from project/idea evaluation, business planning, project development, project execution and ensuring project deliverables are met or exceeded. As your partners, we offer:

For existing operations:

An independent, methodical and factual analysis and evaluation on how your business is performing against industry benchmarks

Help you drive any project, from new ventures to more complex transformational agendas, from plan through to implementation

For start-ups:

We follow a robust process to help you formalize your strategy, goals and milestones, and translate this into a professional business plan and operational execution plan, which will assist in obtaining investment capital and funding. If necessary, we will help you and your team to execute your start-up plan.

Interim Management

We offer interim management services for both existing operations and start-ups. We will gladly bolster your team temporarily to assist you in executing your strategy using our expert executive and/or project management resources at short notice. Disciplined execution is our strength. 

Project Management:

Are your projects/initiatives planned and delivered effectively, on-time, on budget and with the agreed quality? If the answer is “no” to any of these, most likely you are adding unnecessary costs to your bottom line. We help you achieve your goals for any project, from new ventures to more complex transformational agendas. We use effective and adaptive project management techniques to execute your strategy from plan through to implementation.
