Communication Essentials

Our Communication Essentials program is designed to get you a few key marketing pieces in hand quickly and affordably so you can get out there and do business.

If you’re a new business or organization, you’re probably trying to figure out how you want to present your company visually and what kind of marketing materials you need. Or, you may be somewhat established but realize that not having a cohesive identity and communication strategy is holding you back.

If you don’t have a clear way to show what you’re offering, to connect with the people who could be your ideal clients or customers, then you can feel really stuck and unable to move forward with your plans. It’s frustrating when you see the potential of what you have to offer but have no easy way to share the brilliance of that vision with others. You want to get some materials together sooner than later, yet you want to do it well and cost is of concern.

In our experience, all companies and organizations should have at minimum the following elements in their marketing toolkit:

• a clear vision for how to position your company
• a logo
• a business card
• a website splash page

We created Communication Essentials to address these four areas and establish a solid foundation for your marketing or outreach efforts. In addition to tangible marketing materials, you’ll gain a lot of clarity and confidence about how you present your business and feel empowered to better connect with people and share your message.

How does it work?

Communication Essentials begins with our BluePrint process of creative exploration, specifically tailored to your needs as an emerging business (or organization). You will complete homework assignments and meet with us so we can work together to define a creative strategy for your materials. Along the way you may gain other valuable insights and perspective about your business. It’s a fun and collaborative process and the more you put in, ultimately the more you will get out.

Cost

Cost is $2,700*
*Cost is exclusive of the website hosting fees, domain name registration and the purchase of stock images or special fonts. Cost does include business card printing and shipping to your address.

Timing

Communication Essentials takes approximately 4 weeks depending on how quickly you respond to requests for review and approval and provide finalized content. You should plan to spend at least 1-2 hours on each homework assignment. If you need materials sooner, we are happy to discuss fast-track options.
