The frameworks behind Laura’s marketing approach

The strategic scaffolding Laura uses with every client — a clear way to think about marketing, and a repeatable system for growth.

Foundational framework

Building Blocks for Marketing Success

A foundational overview of the core elements every local business needs in place for their marketing to work. If any block is missing or weak, the whole structure suffers.

Each layer builds on the one below it — from a clear strategic foundation, up through being seen and trusted, to becoming the business the community chooses.
