BANKSE: Introducing Our Six Pillar Evaluation Framework.

We developed the 'BANKSE' Framework (trademark pending) to assess your marketing capability from three perspectives: strategy, operations, and culture. Its 70 questions help us to determine your marketing starting point, identify your strengths, and areas to improve across 14 essential marketing aspects. Here are the six pillars:

pillar 1

Build.

This pillar evaluates if you have built a brand and a business strategy that generates and protects an unfair competitive advantage.

pillar 2

Attract.

This evaluates if your communication strategy creates awareness and desire to buy your products or services among your ideal target customers.

pillar 3

Nurture.

This pillar evaluates how well you convert demand into paying customers. It also evaluates if your pricing strategy reflects the true value that you promise to deliver.

pillar 4

Keep.

This evaluates if your customers are die-hard brand advocates and whether your innovation strategy prevents them from switching to your competitors.

pillar 5

Systems.

This pillar evaluates if your marketing stack is fit for purpose, how easily you can measure your activities and how much value you get from your marketing suppliers.

pillar 6

Excellence.

Finally, this pillar evaluates if your marketing activities are compliant. It also explores if you are a customer-orientated organisation and the effectiveness of your marketing leadership.
