A Love Note to Internal Marketing Teams

Hey Marketing Team,

It’s time to give you a serious shout out—

You are champions.

I see you in the brand trenches, cultivating potential and dodging pitfalls.

You’ve poured your blood, sweat, and maybe even a few tears into figuring out which campaigns actually deliver (and which ones… well, didn’t quite hit the mark).

You’ve been tasked with working miracles, continually doing more with less.

You’ve gone above and beyond to spend your budget wisely—making every dollar count to deliver that sweet, sweet ROI.

And, you’ve probably had your fair share of moments when pursuing the business' goals felt at odds with shouldering internal priorities. Been there, done that.

As a former member of an internal marketing team, I remember the never ending “to do” list. Brand awareness campaigns? Check. Market research? Check. Paid media buys? You bet. New messaging initiatives and website launches? Oh, and the daily balancing act of keeping all internal projects moving forward without losing sight of the big picture.

Actually that’s why I’m writing. Because NEXT gets it. We understand what you're working toward, and we want to help.

With just under 100 days left in 2025, now is the time to focus, assess, and plan for your brand. Easier said than done when you’re busy keeping the usual trains on time.

So, we’re offering 3 tailored strategy sprints to help lighten the load. Think of it as a quick, high-energy boost to help power your initiatives through the end of the year and beyond.

I know your job is a constant hustle; but I also know a team of creative and strategic collaborators who are ready to listen, filled with ideas, and eager to support your team where you need it most.

We’re cheering you on, and we’ve always got your back. So give us a shout if we can be of help.

Cheers,
a very impressed CD (Katy)
