What are your typical monthly

Our monthly fees start as low as $500 for a small local
companies. Naturally the fee structure is
increased for larger companies who operate on a regional
or national basis but in all cases our fees are so
reasonable that, unless you are mad at your money, we
represent a good choice for you marketing needs. Keep in
mind, however, that most marketing consulting
companies bill their time out at $200.00 per hour and up which is
$1600 per day minimum just for one person. As you can see,
our fees are very reasonable and are set so that anyone
who wants a professional marketing effort can easily
justify it. In fact, our fees are so reasonable, that with
the addition of even minimal new business secured through
us, we pay our own way many times over.
It really is an easy decision to make once you analyze the
numbers
Do companies typically finance
marketing activities in slow times?
During slow economic times it is extremely important to
increase the marketing budget because it is during these times
that fewer dollars are being spent by consumers and only
the most aggressive companies are going to get the
business. Those who wait for times to get better
will probably be out of business by that time as the more
aggressive companies, in terms of marketing, will have taken
the lion's share of the business.
Does marketing really work in
terms of growing a business?
Marketing works so well that large companies spend
billions of dollars on their marketing and advertising
budgets. The reason they do this is because the
payoff is so high. Companies do not spend
millions of dollars on ad campaigns that don't work and every time you turn on the TV some company is
advertising.
Will you guarantee results from
the marketing program?
We guarantee that without a marketing program you are
assured that NOTHING is going to happen. Another guarantee you have is that if you fail to market
your business your competitors who are using marketing
techniques will most
likely grow faster and make more profits because
they have a formal program of putting their business out
in front of potential clients on a routine basis.
