What is Interim Marketing?
Interim marketing services offer a flexible way to access a highly experienced marketing specialist or a team of professionals with diverse marketing skills to meet specific short-term needs. Instead of hiring a full-time, permanent employee, interim marketing lets you access expertise on an as-needed basis.

How can Emmet Consulting help
Acting as an extended member of your team, we augment bandwidth during periods of change or pivotal strategic junctures.
As an interim marketing or fractional leader, we take a hands-on approach to defining, managing, and executing your brief. From wholesale marketing transformation to auditing marketing ROI and launching new ventures, we assume responsibility for delivering your vision or program of work.
Our Approach
Our approach is based on two straightforward principles: clear-eyed planning and relentless execution. While all project briefs differ, we work swiftly to identify key focus areas that will boost commercial performance.
We typically begin with identifying quick wins—including urgent, high-impact actions that can be tackled immediately. These often involve resetting functional priorities, meeting compliance requirements, establishing KPIs, and refocusing or streamlining programs and costs to boost efficiency.
Beyond the initial quick wins, we’ll focus on developing mid- to long-term strategies to build long-term value and success.

FAQs
What engagement model best suits me?
If you have a single project, a consultant engagement is often the most effective method. For multiple projects or broader scopes of work, interim marketing is a better choice. Conversely, the outsourced marketing team works best when you require a range of skills, for a longer period.
How do I define the scope and requirements?
We’ll help you nail your interim or fractional marketing brief. We’ll collaborate to define your scope, objectives, end goal and any associated KPIs to ensure we have clear expectations.
What’s the difference between Emmet consulting and a contractor?
Not all contractors are experienced consultants. Emmet only offers interim marketing executives who are capable of effecting large-scale change or commercial transformation. Our team has a defined DNA; all have worked in client, large consulting, tier one agencies and/ or private equity organisations.
How do we ensure projects deliver on time and costs stay within budgets?
At the commencement of a project, we define the regular cadence required to ensure project delivery and the estimated costs associated with the program. We jointly agree on delivery dates, identify interdependencies and red flag any issues immediately, for collective resolution.
