Bucks farmers eligible for £150 for marketing training.

Countryside Marketing has recently been accredited by the Bucks Skills Brokerage which means that businesses based in Buckinghamshire can use training vouchers towards projects they are working on with Countryside Marketing. 

 Countryside Marketing aims to help farmers starting out on the diversification journey with their marketing and sales.  This might involve creating websites, customer databases, social media, market research or marketing strategies.  Ted’s aim is to provide this support using the latest tools and techniques, which today enables marketing to be done very cost-effectively.


“Our approach is a little different from traditional marketing and media agencies,” explained Ted.  “We recognise that farmers often like to be in control and have a ‘hands-on’ mentality.  We therefore help our customers to set up and use the appropriate marketing tools themselves, saving large sums of money in annual maintenance and hosting fees.”

Farm Shop - Telling the story of the Laceys

If you're running a farm shop, and much of the produce is yours, then it's important that your customers know this, and there's evidence to back up your claims. The Lacey family in Bolter End, near High Wycombe started their farm shop a few years ago, but not all their customers were aware of where the cows lived, or the fact that their award-winning milk was bottled just yards from the shop.  So together with some talented local photographers and Print Shop we designed some simple 'Story Boards' that evidence the provenance of their milk, cream, eggs and meat and now hang in the shop.  Simple, and cost-effective marketing.

Countryside Marketing coordinates the design and launch of a new enquiry system for caravan sites.

  Countryside Marketing coordinates the design and launch of a new enquiry system for caravan sites. CL Booking is a platform designed to match Caravan & Motorhome Club members looking for a small (5-van) site, known as a CL, with sites with pitches to sell. CL Booking mimics the functionality we have all started to expect from sites like AirBnB. Countryside Marketing worked with a group of 20 site owners to specify the design, and oversaw the development and launch of the platform to the general public. Initial reaction from Club members has been extremely positive and this has been reflected in a strong uptake by sites wishing to advertise their availability on the platform.
