• In collaboration with GROUND.agency, I launched The Dream Manager Programme in the UK with impressive PR results and focussed Brand Positioning.

// ABOUT OUR CLIENT

Inspired by Matthew Kelly’s best-selling book ‘The Dream Manager’, The Dream Manager Programme was developed to address the issue of dis-engaged employees with group based personal coaching that places equal emphasis on enabling employees to connect their business goals with their whole-life dreams. This gives Employers a programme that transforms engagement levels through the lives of their employees.

// THE RESULTS

“GROUND has helped us refine how we communicate our business proposition and created a range of compelling content to help us reach target audiences. They have introduced us to key influencers and helped us to generate press coverage in key business publications and the nationals, which in turn boosted our online rankings and helped us to initiate sales opportunities with prospective customers. I’m having a meeting on Monday with a main board director of a large IT company that reached out to us, as a result of one of their activities – that's real ROI, right there!”

The Dream Manager Programme briefed GROUND to develop a marketing strategy and start up plan for their business launching in the UK & Europe under licence from the USA. The programme offers an employee engagement solution to organisations - B2B and a Coaching certification course to Coaches and Consultants - B2C. The strategy and material needed to reflect and speak to both these audiences.

For Businesses like The Dream Manager Programme with both B2B and B2C target audiences and different but related product offerings creating brand clarity and segmentation can prove challenging. Divide and conquer or create a family that can sit next to and complement each other?

For B2B the client wanted to change from the SME focus that the USA had adopted as its target market and target Medium to Large Enterprise. The Value proposition, Brand, Sales & Marketing, Printed and Digital collateral and entire suite of Engagement Programme course and Coaching Course material needed to be collated, updated, anglicised, re branded and reprinted.
