Account Services
Our seasoned account managers look like the modern equivalent of Clark Kent: smart, professional, observant. But behind those mild-mannered exteriors lay some serious superpowers: lightning-quick communication skills, ultra-strong presentation muscles, and the vision to see beyond our clients’ goals to their hidden potential for greatness. Around here, they keep the trains on track, stop runaway budgets, and generally make the world a better, safer place. (Too bad we can’t convince any of them to wear the cool tights or the cape.)
Research
Research is not purely a scientific enterprise – it’s the art of applied information, of digging for important clues, of knowing what’s important and what’s just a distraction. It takes a really dedicated, smart, and experienced detective-genius to decipher the clues – a person who knows how to find the answers, and where those answers fit in the real world. When we do research for you, it’s part of the entire creative and marketing strategy, and our research pros know how to make raw data mean something in terms of marketing success. (They’ll solve crimes, too, but that costs extra.
Creative
Great creative ideas push at the borders of conventional thinking. It’s the art of coloring outside the lines, of seeing something new even in familiar surroundings, of finding the unique hiding behind the mundane. We’re not afraid to use that “manatee” crayon that no one’s ever used before. Our creative team comes to your product or service with an open mind, years of experience, and a strong understanding of your product – because you can’t push the borders out of the way if you don’t know where they are, right? The result is a vibrant, relevant message
delivered in a fresh way.
Web Services
The beauty of online media is its blinding speed of delivery, its intimate connection with the reader (it is the medium most directly controlled by your target audience), and its ability to get personal. But to do that, you need to approach each project as a totally fresh idea. That’s why, at Marketing Images, you won’t get cookie-cutter, plug & play programming – you get unique, customized, solutions tailored to your specific web-based marketing needs. We find ways for online venues to attract new markets, to serve your customers better, to more quickly respond to market conditions – in short, to do everything that marketing is supposed to do, just better and faster and with fun graphics. With our Content Management System (CMS) you get to control the information that’s posted on your site 24/7. You can easily make updates on the fly with absolutely no experience in HTML programming. Cool, eh?
Public Relations
So often you see PR separated from the rest of a company’s marketing and advertising effort – some companies use a different agency altogether. At Marketing Images, we’re all working together to get the word out, and we find ways to weave your marketing message into press releases, articles, newsletters, and more – in the process making your marketing and branding initiatives bigger, bolder, bouncier, and better, with a touch of extra alliteration. (This is what happens after our writer’s fifth cup of coffee.)
Lead Generation
This is one area that really demonstrates the Marketing Images goal of being your business partner. We took our experience in PR and in Web Services and discovered that we could do more than advertise our client’s customer service – we could actually improve their customer service through helping them more efficiently sort through the sales leads generated by the advertising and marketing we provided. In doing so, we help our clients sniff out new opportunities, dig up new leads, and expand their territory – so they can be top dog in their particular business neighborhood.
