Marketing strategy & project management

Marketing?

A good product or service sells itself. Right?

What are the company’s distinguishing features? What's your story? Your unique selling point?
Even a good product, excellent service and technological innovations aren’t enough for a high turnover and a good margin.
If your marketing efforts aren’t delivering what you expect, we can sit down together and look at why they aren’t.
Sometimes, a free consultation can reveal a lot.

When it comes to your marketing, we’re here to help. Floriculture, horticulture and agricultural marketing & more.
For a no nonsense and successful marketing agency, we’re here in Zierikzee. Sense marketing & more.

Sense marketing & more — It really works!

Many companies provide wonderful products and excellent services, but not aways achieve the success they deserve. This is why Paul Ras launched Sense marketing & more in 2005. The company is based on almost 35 years of practical experience in marketing, communications and project management in horticulture, arboriculture, arable farming and nature conservation. We would be pleased to team up with your own marketing department. Or, if you don’t yet have a marketing department, we’d be pleased to serve your marketing for you.

Paul Ras is Certified European Senior Marketing Professional has acquired his expertise not only in the classroom (a degree in Garden and Landscape Design, a master’s degree in Services Marketing from the University of Groningen, various communication and marketing courses, online marketing courses, etc.) but perhaps more importantly as a result of his wide-ranging practical experience working for companies and distribution chains in the SME - predominantly the agribusiness - sector.

Paul’s vision is that distinguishing features and more cooperation in short, more limited distribution chains enhance opportunities. His mission is to use marketing as a means to help entrepreneurs on their way to even more success. Marketing as a meaningful investment. Together with our specialised partners.
