About Marketing Intelligence

Marketing Intelligence is our monthly report for owners who have the figures but rarely have the time to sit down and read them. We bring your business profile together with the information available from your connected accounts, and turn it into plain English next steps.

How it works, start to finish

  1. Step 1: Your profile

    We use your business details, services, areas and goals to give the numbers context.

  2. Step 2: Connect

    You authorise read-only access to the accounts you want included, such as website, search, social or advertising.

  3. Step 3: Monthly report

    We bring the available information together: what changed, what worked and what needs attention.

  4. Step 4: Recommendations

    Prioritised actions in plain English, so you know what to do next without deciphering a spreadsheet.
