Our Model
The Richards model for what makes an effective marketing partner works like this.
As tactics emerge and evolve, our internal senior-level talent call upon strategic
alliances with global media companies, digital marketing firms, public relations
specialists, research groups, exhibit builders, event producers and packaging manufacturers.
We partner with award-winning writers, the best photographers and solid production
companies to deliver on our promise – creating advertising, marketing and digital
communication that will resonate with your customers.
The beauty of this incredibly flexible approach is that you don’t pay for anything
that you don’t need.
Today's Market
Consumer marketing is fast and furious. Ad campaigns, sales promotions, product
packaging, everything needs to be conceived, tested and produced in time to meet
deadlines that are closing at Internet speed. We get it. We’re on it.
Business-to-Business marketing is target-specific. Who are the recommenders, the
decision makers, the obstacles? We find them, understand them, engage them.
The Process
For most of our clients, our process begins by developing a marketing communications
plan. It works something like this:
Phase I
Business Strategy Development
Client Immersion, Market Analysis, Marketing Strategy Development, Message Mapping
Phase II
Creative Concept Development and Planning
Strategies and Tactics, Timing, Media Planning
Phase III
Implementation
Production, Placement, Measurement
Even for simple projects we prefer to have a plan, a direction, a goal. We ask a
lot of questions in order to find the one true answer.
