Compelling Marketing Communications: meet CMC
Our Thinking | Our Team | Our Planet | Our Community
Compelling Marketing Communications was originally known as Innovative Web Services. We changed our name to reflect the additional marketing solutions we provide to small businesses. This expansion was a direct result of our clients asking us to apply our writing and design skills to creating marketing materials such as brochures, business cards, newsletters, and other compelling marketing materials, in addition to our web site design services.
With a team of a business planner, graphic designers, copy and business writers and technology experts, Compelling Marketing Communications has the resources to make your marketing campaign a big success. And we've been in business since 1999 so you know we'll be around for a long time to come. |
Compelling Marketing Communications is large enough to deliver on our promises
and small enough to provide personal care. |
