ORGANIZATION & STRATEGY

We begin by understanding the results that matter the most to you, and how intentional communications can help you achieve them. Through a facilitated discovery process, we align business objectives, market positioning, internal structure, and stakeholder needs to build a communications strategy grounded in measurable outcomes.


The result is a clear strategic roadmap that connects Strategy, Creative, and Media into one integrated system—designed to support revenue growth, strengthen organizational alignment, and position your business for long-term success.

EXECUTING & MANAGING

Strategy only creates value when it can be executed consistently across every channel, team, and partner. Our managed service model provides the structure and leadership needed to turn plans into action without adding unnecessary internal overhead.

We act as the central integrator of your communications ecosystem – coordinating internal resources, external partners, and subject-matter experts to ensure efficient execution, operational clarity, and continuity across initiatives. Every engagement is designed to create momentum while remaining flexible enough to adapt as your business evolves.

PERFORMANCE & ACCOUNTABILITY

Everything communicates. That’s why we focus on ensuring every message, interaction, and initiative reinforces your business objectives and brand position. Through refined messaging, consistent reporting, and ongoing collaboration, we help organizations maintain balance and consistency while improving performance over time.


Our engagements include regular strategic reviews, performance reporting, and proactive recommendations informed by changing business priorities and market conditions. By combining senior-level guidance with measurable accountability, we help communications become a true driver of growth, retention, and enterprise value.

A communications plan should drive real results and easily cascade through your entire organization. Leverage a team of experts and stay within your marketing budget. A strategic partner who works directly with you and maximizes your vendor relationships.

The “& Company” in Wakeen includes our full team of executives, strategists, media buyers, and creatives working to deeply understand you: Your business, key stakeholders, employees and the customers you serve. 

MANAGED SERVICE

MARCOM BLUEPRINT

A FRAMEWORK FOR YOUR TEAM

The Wakeen MARCOM Blueprint transforms fragmented marketing activity into a single, clear communications framework to create a shared direction across internal teams and external partners. It’s a tool designed to augment your broader strategic plan, not replace it.

The result is a practical, execution-ready roadmap that brings structure, accountability, and focus to your communications so every message, channel, and initiative works together to move your business forward.

Every organization is different, so every Blueprint is too! That said, standard deliverables include: defined marketing goals, audience profiles, geographic insights, custom messaging for communications channels, paid media recommendations, a digital audit of your online presence, and competitive research.

For most clients, the entire process takes under two months. This allows time for discovery, research, analysis, strategy and a full plan that you can put into action immediately. There is no obligation to work with Wakeen & Company to implement your strategy unless we can bring value, perspective and bandwidth through managed service.

Your final deliverable includes the key components of your Marketing and Communications Strategy conveniently organized into a shareable colorful poster, so you can stay the course. This is accompanied by a comprehensive supporting deck that includes research, recommendations and best practices that can be referenced continuously. Our goal is to educate and equip.

INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS

SPECIALIZED SERVICES THAT BRING DEEPER VALUE

Some business challenges require a higher level of expertise than day-to-day communications management. Whether navigating the unique communications demands of an EOS-driven organization, building or refreshing your digital presence, or managing the full RFP process from solicitation through selection, our Integrated Solutions weave seamlessly into the work we’re already doing together.

Running on EOS brings extraordinary clarity to your organization — but clarity only creates Traction when everything around it communicates the Vision. We work alongside EOS-driven leadership teams to ensure their communications are as intentional and accountable as the framework they run on — from internal alignment to external positioning, calibrated to the Rocks, measurables, and goals that matter most to your business.

A strong digital presence requires a technically sound foundation that search engines reward and audiences trust. We manage the full scope of website and SEO engagements — from site architecture, content development, and on-site optimization to off-site strategy, keyword research, and performance measurement — ensuring your digital presence is built to be found, and ready to convert.
 

We take the complexity out of finding the right partner. We manage the full RFI/RFP process on your behalf — from a facilitated discovery session that defines your objectives, needs, and evaluation criteria, to partner research, document development, proposal coordination, and final selection. Our approach is built around transparency and collaboration — for you and for the partners responding — so the process surfaces the right fit rather than just the most polished pitch.
