To that end, our professionals work with your professionals to make the road to success less bumpy. Actions must have logic, artwork, and process and the campaigns must have clear, quantifiable and attainable goals set.

Production Coordination

Event Planning – Gala, Trade Show, Golf Events
Show off with a big bang! As a part of your business advertising, marketing and promotion, a special or annual event may take your company front and center in the public eye and it should be done with flair and panache. Your event should be memorable for all of the right reasons.

Whether you are a 501c3 or can partner with a local community group, In Touch Marketing Concepts can strategically plan an event that will develop the best result for your targeted goal. We are good at making the impossible happen and the venue shine.

We have the experience, the contacts, the peripheral support and the only thing a company needs to do is decide to move forward.

Trade Advertising

Outdoor / Billboard
Whether it’s for a yearly promotional plan, or to highlight a single special event or trade show, ITMC presents realistic demographics tied to realistic expectations.

How many, how long, and in which locations? We can give companies a break down of highly traveled roads with the target audience and predict the efficacy of the return.

Press Releases
Releasing information to various news outlets has become more critical both in print and online media. Timeliness is critical to post just enough information and not to overwhelm the reader with endless drivel, history and self-aggrandizing accolades.

The public is much more time aware than ever. The information must be delivered in seconds rather than minutes and it must be effective enough to catch the eye at a glance.

We pair national news feeds with hyper-focused news and commentary regarding your business and industry trends.

Copywriting for Print
Advertising text is nothing like the Great American Novel! We deliver solid content, tasty tag lines, and compelling copy. Sometimes less is more. And, sometimes more is much more as well as necessary. When you know the difference and can apply it, the best practices are met with entertaining, effective, informative and profitable written content.

Copy-writing Digital and Web Use
The largest and most effective search engine in use today is Google®. They are the ruling architects on online advertising with ever changing algorithms that define whether or not your copy is going to draw business.

Since we closely follow the trends and changes, you will know that your digital media is up to the challenge of the online battle.

Content Research and Writing
To make sure that the content is properly written for the subject matter we rely on our client input with a tremendous amount of critical research. We leave nothing unexamined.

Radio – Spots – Programs and Development
Do you have a special focus that will appeal to prospective clients over the range of several counties, states or geographic regions? Let’s discuss radio, web stream, podcast, placement, frequency and reach. After all, the radio isn’t just for baseball.

Website Efficacy Assessments

How well is your site working? When was the last time that your site actually matched the rest of your marketing plans?

Consistency is the key to all strategic marketing. Paired with frequency and constant evaluation and measuring to monitor your online response, we are able to gauge the movement and response of your marketing along the road.

Website Design & Development

Whether building from scratch, to a total web overhaul, we can determine what you need and what will be most effective. A site that is not updated monthly quickly joins the mothball fleet. The browsers don’t visit and it loses ranking and authority. In short, it becomes a ghost that is not working for you.

A properly functioning website is your only company tool that works 24/7 without complaint.  With over 80% of product or service searches starting online, are you being found?
