Creative Communication



Personal relationships power marketing.
All our communication efforts center on and support them.

Marketing communication builds awareness and trust, and then persuades the customer to buy.

To buy from you, your customer must have:

Awareness—knowing that your product and your company exist?

Assurance of Value—deciding that your value proposition is best. The value proposition trades off the benefits you deliver, the benefits you don't deliver, and the cost to the customer, including price and other costs. Most customers have never heard of a value proposition, but that is what they use intuitively to compare one product with another.

Trust—believing that you will follow the Golden Rule in all dealings.

Whether you work directly with just a few customers, or have thousands of customers and prospects, your marketing communication must still address those same three issues. The real challenge is to keep the communication personal, and to treat every customer as if she or he is your only one. That philosophy energizes all of our marketing communication work. For us, mass communication, in the form of unfocused advertising or “blanket bombing” direct mail, is not just ineffective and inefficient, but unprofessional. You need personal relationships with your customers. We will help you build them.
