You may already have noticed that our marketing is a little different than what most technology companies are putting out there. That’s why people remember our work.
We get results, but we’re not for everyone. We’re a niche technology marketing agency that caters to companies who are willing to make bold statements in ways that get noticed and compel behavior.
If your real goal is to look like your competitors and fit in, we’re probably not for you. But that’s OK — there are lots of agencies who thrive in this space.
To make sure we can deliver the results you need, we’re very careful about choosing clients. Almost all of them know how we work because they’ve come through referral or have worked with us before — it’s almost (but not quite) a requirement.
Our clients understand effective marketing isn’t smoke and mirrors, and it’s not a giant sucking sound in the budget. It’s a strategically laid out plan to achieve quantifiable goals, backed by a team with the skills required and a timeline to execute against. Then the results are measured — period.
To get the marketing results you demand, you need access to a diverse team with deep skill sets. We pull in exactly the team members we need for your project, with no extra fluff.
Most agencies charge a premium for services because they’re floating staff who may or may not be working on any given project. Translation: you’re paying for people and skills you’re not directly using.
We don’t do that. We scope and quote most work up front, so there are no surprises, and you’ll never be paying to support the salary of someone who isn’t working directly on your project.
At heart, we’re a band of guerilla marketers who happen to have a lot of years in the technology trenches. For the most part, we’ve all exited successful corporate careers because we knew we could be more effective and successful with more control over outcomes.
We know what works and what doesn’t, and we know if what we do doesn’t work, you won’t be back for more, and we won’t have anything we want to add to our portfolios. It’s that simple.
