Consultancy Helping to Promote Businesses in the North West - New online marketing services

Marketing Projects, the Chester & London based PR and marketing consultancy has recently enhanced the services they offer to local and national businesses from their web site at www.marketingprojects.co.uk

The company’s website has been redeveloped so that potential and current clients can have their own press office specially designed for journalists to download images and news quickly. This can either be an extension of a client’s own web site or stand alone for press use.

Marketing Projects’ Business Fitness Test allows a business to evaluate their company’s performance. Developed in conjunction with Business Link, this ‘Bench Marketing™’ exercise will give simple feedback free of charge or involve a 5 page detailed report for just £399, within 5 working days.

‘Xpress News™’, has also been launched for organisations needing occasional press coverage. The service allows a press release to be distributed out on behalf of the client, for a small cost of £199, or with follow ups, for £249.

Consultant Director, Jane Harrad-Roberts, who set the company up ten years ago and who currently manages Marketing Projects’ high profile work for the Institute of Directors in the North West, commented: “These services enable companies without big marketing budgets to enjoy the opportunity of raising their profile and undertaking some marketing activities in an affordable yet effective way. It is important that businesses in the region don’t miss out to the competition.”
