Strategic Consulting

At SMG, we don’t limit ourselves to “big” ideas. We care about the “right” idea. Instead of the “shiny object”, we define the smart, inspiring concept that will support your strategy and earn you major, measurable results. We call this process Design to the Right Idea.

Before you do anything, we’ll help you limit budgetary, functional, and reputational risk by identifying what will and won’t work for you – and the people you’re trying to reach. We’ll also get your team up to speed on social media best practices. Ready? Great.

What is Strategic Consulting?
Strategic Consulting is a proven process that helps you define and reach your social media goals.

Our Strategic Consulting process includes:

  • Defining Business Objectives
    What are you trying to accomplish as a business? We’ll ensure that our recommendations dovetail with both your needs, and your audience requirements, ensuring your social media success.
  • Research
    We monitor the social media channels, communities, and influencers most relevant to you—from heavily trafficked blogs to popular Twitter feeds, to find out what matters to the people who matter most to you.
  • Social Media Roadmap
    We create a strategic plan tailored to your needs. Then, we tell you exactly how to put that plan into action.
  • Implementation
    Our project managers, analysts, developers, and designers make your plan a reality. Once they’re done, you’ll be able to efficiently spread key messages and accurately track your progress.

Why do we provide Strategic Consulting?
Social media is a tool. If you know how to use it, you can engage your audiences in new and profitable ways, gain fresh perspectives, and more effectively collaborate with your stakeholders.

Through Strategic Consulting, we teach you how to use the incredible potential of social media for the good of your organization and your online community. As a result, you’ll avoid short-sighted, hard-to-execute and ineffective strategies, and benefit from increased credibility and insight.
