Client communication is at the heart of every successful business relationship. For professional services firms, whether in law, finance, consulting, or engineering, the ability to communicate clearly, consistently, and confidently has always been a marker of trust and credibility. Technology, data, and automation are reshaping how firms engage with clients, while expectations for speed, personalisation, and transparency have never been higher. The challenge, and opportunity,

It’s easy to confuse activity with progress. Many organisations, from ambitious startups to established global corporates, are investing heavily in marketing yet not always seeing the return they expect. The reason is often simple: they’re focused on tactics rather than transformation. A truly effective marketing strategy doesn’t start with what you do ; it starts with why  you’re doing it, who you’re doing it for, and how it moves your business forward. 1. Strategy starts wi

The professional services landscape is evolving faster than ever. From law firms and consultancies to accountancy and engineering practices, marketing is no longer just about visibility — it’s about relevance, reputation, and results. As we look ahead in 2026, companies must adapt to a changing market shaped by technology, shifting client expectations, and the growing demand for authenticity. At Konnected, we work with organisations ranging from startups to global corporates,

Let's talk about something important - the critical realm of corporate transparency, a cornerstone of modern business ethics and regulatory compliance. In this dynamic landscape shaped by Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards and stringent regulatory frameworks, maintaining transparency isn't just a suggestion – it's a non-negotiable imperative. It seems there is little to no forgiveness from clients - in the recent 2023 Deloitte Global Chief Procurement Offic

Taking the opportunity to step back and deeply assess how your marketing function is working for your business and how it can be improved is important, but where do you start? It’s not as easy as it might seem. Finding the time can be a struggle and being able to objectively review marketing and plan a way forward, without letting competing commissions, objectives or ‘we have always done it this way’ attitudes get in the way, is often nothing short of impossible. It takes dat

In this blog post, we'll explore how the approach to competitor analysis has transformed and why it remains pivotal in shaping your marketing strategy. We recently delivered a great ‘Art of the possible’ session with a client, where we looked at innovations and ‘out of the box’ ideas for strategic marketing and communications. One of the themes touched on was competitor analysis. ‘OLD NEWS’ I hear you say, but actually, in today's fast-moving business world, understanding you

In today’s digital-first world, businesses are constantly evolving to find new ways to connect with audiences. Traditional methods of engagement no longer meet the needs of a tech-savvy, experience-hungry customer base. With the advent of interactive technologies like augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), companies across various industries are now offering deeper, more memorable, and immersive experience marketing that capture attention, drive engagement, and prov

In short, you should be. I know, it sounds obvious but how many businesses are truly client centered, AND make sure their clients know it? Learning how to cultivate marketing-led, organisation wide, client centricity will drive engagement and loyalty, increase your value to existing and future clients and, ultimately, increases your revenue. Markets are rapidly evolving, and client loyalty is no longer guaranteed, if it ever was. How to improve client centricity: Marketing ne

Buyer programmes, or communities as Konnected call them, are very different to sales campaigns and events. Yes, sometimes their revenue benefits will be immediate, but they are ultimately designed to develop long term, mutually beneficial, profitable relationships, and to build a company’s reputation with certain segment(s) of their market. Ideal for professional services audiences and companies looking at sustaining their growth trajectory. It is important to define ‘buyer’.

We Love sending these out. It gives us a real buzz (bad pun alert). There is a lot of 'green washing' that goes on with large numbers and promises of 'net zero'. It is often easy to look beneath and see that it is actually cost savings or things that had to happen anyway being repackaged. That is why we like to focus on things that will make a difference today. As part of our 'high five' ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) policy, we plant two 'Trees for Bees' packages
