Refresh & Grow

$4,900 + GST | Delivered in four weeks

Your marketing is active but it is not driving visits. You are posting, you are on Google, you might even be running the occasional promotion — but the results are inconsistent and you are not sure what to fix first.

Refresh & Grow gives you a six-month marketing plan built for physical retail, the tools to run it, and a 90-day check-in to make sure it is working.

Built for

  • Retail stores, hospitality venues, and experience brands operating from shopping centres and high foot traffic precincts

  • Teams posting regularly but not seeing results

  • Brands unsure what to prioritise across social, website, and Google Business Profile

  • Businesses wanting a clear plan before increasing spend

What you get

  • Audit scorecard identifying what is holding foot traffic and conversion back

  • Target customer and messaging direction for your location and trade context

  • Channel roles guide so your team knows what to post, where, and why

  • Six-month retail marketing calendar aligned to trading periods, seasonal peaks, and centre-led promotions

  • Retail offer matrix with ready-to-use CTAs, urgency cues, and proof points

  • Content pillars and prompt library your team can execute without a brief

  • Google Business Profile action list to capture high-intent local search

  • Customer capture playbook — practical prompts for building your customer list from your physical location, including QR codes, loyalty nudges, Wi-Fi capture, and receipt-based tactics

  • First 30 days quick start checklist so your team knows exactly what to action first

  • Recorded walkthrough of your strategy delivery to share with your team, your centre marketing contact, or a new staff member

  • 90-day review session to assess what is working and reset priorities

How it works

Kickoff session to understand your business, location, and current activity. Audit of your owned channels, messaging, and performance. Strategy build and six-month framework. Delivery walkthrough with a clear implementation sequence. 90-day review to check progress and sharpen next steps.

Delivered in four weeks from kickoff.

The 90-day review is not a bonus — it is built in.

Most strategies sit in a folder. The review session at the 90-day mark is where we check whether the plan is generating results and adjust what is not landing. It is the difference between a document and a system.
