More and more, business are looking for ways to reduce costs without reducing productivity. Equally as important as sales is your marketing department. Your marketing department spurs sales and generates leads but unfortunately when downturns hit, marketing is the first department to see reductions.
The way to reduce marketing costs without reducing productivity is to hire a marketing consultant to handle your business communications. Let’s face it, a talented full-time marketing employee can demand a minimum salary of around $60,000 a year but then you have to factor in the benefits. Those can include health insurance, expense account, dental insurance, life insurance, disability insurance and more depending on the company. Those costs alone can equal another $40,000 a year for a total for one full-time employee of $90,000 a year.
Hiring a marketing consultant can reduce those costs by at least 50% depending on the services you desire. Generally, when you hire a marketing consulting firm you hire a team of marketing professionals dedicated to your business who can accomplish more than just one full-time employee. Working with a marketing consulting firm means no equipment to purchase, no benefits to pay and access to the many media connections they already have established in the industry. A marketing consultant will hit the ground running while it takes time for a full-time employee to, “get things figured out.”
