Outsourced Marketing Department

It’s why we exist so we are better at it than most

An outsourced marketing department is for businesses that value marketing but don’t have the time, resource or know how to do it themselves.

Xander Marketing is formed around the central organising idea of being the outsourced marketing department for SMEs. This means we do it better than most. We work hard at helping our clients realise the full benefits of outsourcing their marketing.

We’ve learned that a ‘one size fits all’ approach to the outsourced marketing department is a mistake. Services need to be scaled to the needs of clients, so we tailor the outsourced marketing department in different, flexible sizes we call packages.

The idea of outsourcing marketing is nothing new. For as long as there have been products and services to sell, businesses have offloaded many elements of marketing and promotional activity as projects. But why limit the scope on a project-by-project basis?

Many businesses focus their time on sales and operations relegating marketing to something that is dabbled with from time to time; but it demands more. Marketing is ever present, a constant which requires continual attention.

It’s a lot cheaper and flexible than employing a marketing manager

An alternative approach, such as employing a full time marketing professional is expensive. It’s not just the salary; there are benefits, holiday pay, sick pay, hardware and software, and that’s before the financial damage which may result if things end badly. Similarly, working with freelancers and agencies on different projects may have drawbacks. Managing or co-ordinating ad-hoc teams can be time consuming and costly and lead to disjointed marketing.

In fact, by comparison, the outsourced marketing department from Xander Marketing delivers the ‘ideal world’ – everything you want from your own in-house team except the cost and complexity…
