Steve Davis
Talked About Marketing is owned and run by Steve Davis. Steve’s been a marketing consultant for 20 years, is a former journalist and radio broadcaster, and is also a performer and stand up comedian.
Our Ethics
There is a need for deep trust when you engage a consultant. We believe the “it’s just business” line is a refuge for scoundrels. Common decency and an earnest approach to our dealings will guide our relationship.
Welcome to Talked About Marketing
This is the new home for marketing services provided by Steve Davis
Is this really Talked About Marketing? Is that really Steve Davis as Oscar Wilde? Yes, on both counts. This is Steve’s new marketing consultancy based in Adelaide, South Australia and from this simple base you’ll be able to access a range of marketing support.
This site might not be what you expect from a marketing consultancy because there are not enough stock images of people in suits, smiling. In fact, there might not be any at all. What this site does have, is content that gives you a sense of what to expect when you hire Steve Davis to work with you across your marketing and communication projects.
Are you ready to be talked about (in a good way)? Arrange a chat with Steve or subscribe to the Talked About Marketing monthly newsletter because it will bundle up his marketing writings into one place, while alerting you to new workshops and events that might benefit you and your business.

Is your marketing worth remarking about?
Remarkable has nothing to do with the marketer. Remarkable is in the eye of the consumer, the person who ‘remarks.’ If people talk about what you’re doing, it’s remarkable, by definition. The goal, then, isn’t to draw some positioning charts and announce that you have differentiated your product. No, the opportunity is to actually create something that people choose to talk about, regardless of what the competition is doing. – Seth Godin
