Hélène Dallais / Approach

Approach

In many SMEs, marketing is treated as a downstream activity, a communication issue delegated to an agency or managed internally without a strategic framework. The business owner invests time and money without achieving the expected results.

The problem is rarely execution. It is the absence of strategic groundwork.

Working notes and positioning development
From strategy to results

From strategy to results

My work always begins with the business: offer, positioning, pricing policy, customer journey, tools and internal organisation. This diagnostic informs the marketing strategy and the delivery I lead, directly or by coordinating specialist experts. I stay involved through to the result.

Real examples

Suisse romande · Luxembourg

01 / French-speaking Switzerland

A property developer

I was asked to manage online advertising. The diagnostic revealed upstream issues: pricing needed a review, there was no customer management platform, the offer lacked clarity and internal processes needed structure. We rebuilt the foundations before rolling out the digital approach. The result: significant revenue growth from the first quarter.

02 / Luxembourg

A European professional event

I was entrusted with its communication from its creation. Four editions later: 3,600 visitors, 150 exhibitors and a LinkedIn community of 3,200 professionals. Content strategy, speaker interviews, newsletters and media relations, all managed continuously.

In practice

From strategy to results

  1. 01

    Diagnostic

    Analysis of the real situation, identifying problems and opportunities.

  2. 02

    Strategy

    Positioning, roadmap and resource allocation.

  3. 03

    Delivery

    Leading and coordinating implementation: providers, tools and production.

  4. 04

    Measurement

    Tracking indicators, making adjustments and reporting to the leadership team.

My commitment

  • I defend the client’s interests, including when that means challenging the original request.
  • I do not deliver recommendations. I lead execution and take responsibility for results.
  • 28 years of experience in agencies, in-house roles and outsourced leadership, from strategy to operational implementation.

Why work with me

01

One point of contact, from diagnostic to delivery

No turnover, no handover. I am your direct contact throughout the assignment. My way of working is structured and transparent, making oversight simpler for you.

02

Broad expertise, specialist support when needed

I cover strategy, leadership and a substantial part of execution. When a subject requires a specific skill (web development, video production or technical campaigns), I bring in qualified providers whom I select, brief and manage in your interest.

03

Continuous learning and practical use of AI

Nine years of independent practice have taught me to keep learning and incorporate technological developments into my daily work. AI tools are part of my operational processes: monitoring, analysis, content production and automation.
