Every business exists in a unique competitive environment and strives for unique goals. Many variables—your band messaging, your value proposition, even the type of technology you use—influence the trajectory of your business and the way marketing works for you. Being told to “spend more on advertising” doesn’t work for you, and you know it.
Don’t settle for “one-size-fits-all” marketing
Your company has big goals
Your marketing activity should serve your goals. Having the best gear isn’t what gets you to the summit, it’s the discernment of how to use it properly and the fortitude to keep taking the next step. At USDP, we take this disciplined mentality into everything we do. We will help you create a marketing strategy tailored to your goals and the tactics that make sense for your industry.

How we do it
Drawing out the roadmap
A smooth journey requires a lot of thought and planning. You need to know your starting point, the final destination, the milestones to measure your progress, and the potential pitfalls you might run into. Here is how we do that for you to keep the journey smooth and make “are we there yet” a thing of the past.
1
Point A
We first need to understand your starting point. Where do you stand in the market? What has been in the way of you reaching your marketing goals? What sorts of things have you tried in the past? What’s worked, and what hasn’t?
2
Point B
This is the fun part. Where are you trying to go? What specific metrics do you want your business to meet and when? What new audiences do you want to reach? What do you wish your brand could be?
3
The Milestones
With the destination in site, we need to know what roads to take. What marketing tactics will bring about these results? When should you do them? How do you best spend your marketing budget? What activities should you do yourself? What will you need our help with?
4
The Pitfalls
Just like in life, you always need to be ready for road closures. What is your competition doing? How do you fight through indecision? What do you do if something isn't working? How should the strategy shift if the economy is struggling?

Executing on brand strategy
Creating a roadmap for growth is essential, but we want it to be only 20% of the work we do for you. Strategy and planning are essential, but the magic happens when you move and begin to execute real campaigns. That's where we want to spend 80% of our time. Your USDP team will work with you to draw out a strategic roadmap that is feasible for your business. They will be there riding shotgun to keep you on course, and occasionally providing those delicious road trip snacks.
