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 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 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.
I thrive on helping people articulate and share the value their enterprise can bring to the world. – Steve Davis
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

Exposing yourself to social media marketing
There were a number of themes developed during my social media marketing workshop with members of the Australian Institute of Professional Photography SA branch last week, that might be worth tucking into an album for future reference. They centered around taking time...
Raising a finger to empathy in business: Marketing lessons from Ceduna and Kangaroo Island
This will be one of the shortest blogs I've ever written because it is about an observation from my recent road trip about the importance of empathy in business. The two elements that prompted this reflection were the series of workshops I am currently running for the...
