Virtual Chief Marketing Officer (V.CMO)
“Brand perception is the key to effective marketing.” – When you know the touch points, you can then bridge connections to consumers.
A strong brand is built on the success of both tangible and intangible elements. The basic tangibles:- product, office space and website are insufficient to distinguish your brand apart from the competition. The intangible portion:- significance and perception that recipients derive from the branding ultimately determines their preferred choice.
What makes your durian better than the other fruit stalls' which would have customers travel all the way from east to west for it? What makes someone pick Coke over Pepsi or Apple over Samsung? It is the brand connection that stimulates customer desire and motivates demand, and in turn creating a form of relevance and loyalty and therefore resulting in present and future business value.
This is where a V.CMO comes in play to craft out the brand strategy to create and retain loyalty for your business.

5. Is the VCMO going to handle EVERYTHING for my company?
- The VCMO will handle everything as per our terms of engagement.
6. Is the VCMO technically my employee?
- He or she is a partner of our firm assigned to your company and is not technically an employee of yours, meaning to say, there is no CPF payable. Save more! =)
7. How long does it take to implement the chances?
