Clarify what to fix first — before you spend more time, money or energy on marketing.

The Strategic Action Plan is a focused 90-day strategy process for organisations that need clearer commercial priorities, marketing direction and practical next actions.

You may not need a bigger campaign yet. You may need a clearer view of what is actually getting in the way.

When marketing feels chaotic or unproductive, the instinctive reaction is often to launch another channel, redesign the website or run more ad spend. But if the underlying commercial goal, buyer proposition or follow-up route is broken, more volume simply accelerates waste.

The SHOO Strategic Action Plan helps you step back, understand your current market position and create an actionable 90-day roadmap for better marketing, stronger visibility and more useful sales conversations.

  • Founders who feel marketing has become reactive, overwhelming or fragmented.
  • Leadership teams needing alignment on who their priority buyer actually is.
  • Organisations preparing for a campaign, launch or new growth phase.
  • Businesses unsure whether they need training, consultancy, paid media or systems.

How the Action Plan is delivered

Step 01
Pre-SAP Diagnostic

You complete a structured diagnostic covering business goals, sales activity, marketing activity, current systems, audience, offer, visibility, follow-up and measurement.

Step 02
Review and Analysis

SHOO reviews the information, identifies bottlenecks, calculates efficiency gaps and maps the current position against the SHOO Method.

Step 03
Strategy Session

We meet with your key decision-makers to clarify the commercial priorities, diagnose the friction and agree what needs immediate attention first.

Step 04
90-Day Roadmap

You receive a practical action plan setting out priorities, recommended actions, responsibilities, measures and next steps.

Step 05
Accountability & Guidance

The SAP includes agreed check-ins and guidance points so the plan does not disappear into a folder or get overwhelmed by daily operational noise.

Frequently Asked Questions about the SAP

Is this a consultancy retainer?

No. The Strategic Action Plan is a focused, fixed-price strategy process (£1,200 + VAT), not an open-ended monthly consultancy contract.

Does SHOO implement everything afterwards?

No. The SAP provides the diagnostic assessment and 90-day roadmap. If you require SHOO to handle campaigns, paid media or AI workflows, that is scoped separately.

How quickly can we begin?

Once your application is approved and invoice settled, you will receive the pre-SAP diagnostic immediately. Strategy sessions typically take place within 10–14 days.

How much preparation is needed from my team?

The pre-SAP diagnostic takes approximately 25–35 minutes to complete. Thorough answers ensure we spend our strategy session on high-value decisions rather than basic data gathering.

Is it suitable for multi-person teams?

Yes. It is particularly effective where directors or founders have conflicting views on priorities and need objective alignment.

Do you guarantee specific sales results?

No commercial practitioner can guarantee third-party sales. We guarantee clear commercial priorities, rigorous diagnosis of friction and an actionable 90-day plan.
