The problem

Marketing problems brands bring
to us on day one

“

We're spending on marketing, but can't see what's working.

We audit your tracking, attribution and reporting, then show exactly which channels and campaigns earn their budget, and which don't.

“

Every channel is run by a different vendor, with no shared plan.

One strategy, one set of goals and one roadmap that aligns SEO, paid, social, content and email instead of letting them compete.

“

We're not sure who our best customer really is.

Customer data, interviews and market research turn vague target groups into sharp ICPs and personas your whole team can use.

“

Competitors keep outranking and outselling us.

A competitor benchmark across channels, messaging and offers reveals where they win, where they're weak and where you can take ground.

“

We launched something new and nobody noticed.

Go-to-market plans with clear positioning, channel sequencing and launch timelines, so the next launch lands.

“

Our messaging sounds like everyone else's.

Positioning and messaging frameworks that say what only you can say, and make it consistent across every touchpoint.

“

We have plenty of reports, but no decisions.

Dashboards built around the few metrics that matter, plus a decision framework for what to scale, fix or stop.

“

Our budget is spread thin across too many channels.

We prioritize the two or three channels with the strongest fit and return, then reallocate budget where it compounds.

“

We're growing fast and marketing hasn't kept up.

An operating model, team structure and priorities that match the stage you're at, not the one you were at last year.

Why strategy first

Execution is expensive.
Direction is cheap.

Most marketing budgets leak through unclear goals, the wrong channels and untested messaging. A sharp strategy fixes that before a single ad or post goes live.

01

Clarity

Know exactly who you're selling to, what you're saying, and why it's different. Every tactic gets easier when the strategy is clear.

01
02

Focus

A prioritized roadmap replaces random acts of marketing with a few bets that move the numbers that matter.

03

Efficiency

Budget flows to the channels that return, wasted spend gets cut, and the team stops rebuilding the plan every quarter.

04

Alignment

Founders, sales and marketing work from the same goals, KPIs and story, so growth stops depending on who shouts loudest.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between an audit and a strategy?

An audit tells you where you stand: what's working, what's broken and where the gaps are. A strategy tells you where to go next: positioning, channel mix, budget and a roadmap. Most clients start with the audit and move into strategy.

How long does a marketing audit take?

A full audit typically takes one to two weeks once we have access to your accounts. A complete strategy sprint, including the audit, takes four to six weeks.

What do you need from us to get started?

Read access to analytics, ad accounts, CRM or sales data, plus an hour or two with key stakeholders. We'll send a short checklist at kickoff.

Do you only audit, or can you also execute the plan?

Both. You can take the roadmap to your in-house team or vendors, or the wider #Knights team can run SEO, paid, social, content, design and development from it.

Can you audit just one channel, like SEO or paid ads?

Yes. Single-channel audits for SEO, paid media, social or your website are available as standalone projects or as part of a fractional strategy plan.

Is this useful if we're a startup with little data?

Yes. For early-stage brands we lean on market research, competitor analysis and customer interviews to set positioning and pick the first channels worth testing.

Will the strategy work with our existing agencies?

Yes. We regularly produce roadmaps and briefs that other vendors execute, and the fractional plan can include oversight of their work.

What does "fractional strategy" mean?

A senior strategist works with you a set number of hours each month, acting like a part-time head of marketing: planning, reviewing performance, running audits and guiding your team or vendors.

How do you measure the success of a strategy?

Against KPIs agreed at kickoff, such as pipeline, cost per acquisition, revenue per channel or organic growth, tracked in a live dashboard and reviewed at regular check-ins.

What does the final deliverable look like?

A concise strategy document and workshop, a scored audit, a 90-day roadmap with owners and KPIs, messaging frameworks, and briefs or specs ready for execution.

Which industries do you know best?

B2B and SaaS, travel and tourism, apps and sports, fintech, construction, real estate and e-commerce, though the process adapts to any market.

Can you help us set up tracking and dashboards?

Yes. Our analytics specialist audits your tracking, fixes gaps in GA4 and ad platforms, and sets up dashboards around the metrics that matter.

Is the audit confidential?

Always. We sign an NDA on request and your data, findings and strategy are never shared or reused.
