To explain what we will do, it’s important that we address the common issue we encounter when assisting a start-up business.  Often when starting a business owners will immediately purchase items of which they understand the value.  We classify these as wants:

Wants (Examples)

• Logo
• Website
• Office Furniture

While we excel at the development of these materials (wants), according to standard marketing best practices the “want’ categories will be more effective if managed along with what we classify as needs:

Needs (Examples)

• Market Research
• Communication Strategy
• A Marketing Plan

Without needs the wants will not be driven by strategy based on research.  Desires will be more expensive and take longer to achieve.   With no roadmap (plan), often we see these fledgling companies running in circles.  Developing a business without the core principles of acquiring the business (needs) results in years of lost revenue, time, and wasted cash allocated to production materials that do not sell as well as they could.

Desires (Examples)

• Generate Revenue
• Make a difference
• Fill gaps made by the current banking system

Finally we have desires.  These are long term goals all parties can agree on from the get go.  Developing both wants and needs with order and structure will help us attain the desires that made us start something in the first place.  All three components: wants, needs, and desires managed by us on our clients behalf is where we provide the quickest ROI.

“Adbongo listened to what I wanted to do and has been implementing phases of development with order, structure and professionalism.  I believe that Adbongo has saved me two years of development time and several thousands of dollars.”  – Pat Diccico, President, Accessible Home Design

The benefits to advertising are simple: your business will develop credibility necessary to promote growth, the business name you choose will become associated with quality of your business, and word of mouth will spread.  The quality of products or services you provide is only one part of the reputation that you will be establishing. 

1. Advertising Creates Traffic. Continuous traffic is the first step toward increasing sales and expanding your base of shoppers.

2. Advertising Attracts New Customers. Your market changes constantly. Newcomers to our area mean new customers to reach.

3. Advertising Encourages Repeat Business. Shoppers don't have the loyalty they once did. Shoppers have mobility and freedom of choice. You must advertise to keep pace with your competition.

4. Advertising Generates Continuous Business. As long as you're in business, you've got overhead to meet and new people to reach. Advertising can generate traffic now…and in the future.

5. Advertising is an Investment in Success. Advertising gives you a long-term advantage over competitors who cut back or cancel advertising. A survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising over a five-year period saw their sales increase an average of 100 percent, and companies that cut advertising grew at less than half the rate of those who advertised steadily.

6. Advertising Keeps You in the Competitive Race. There are only so many customers in the market ready to buy at any one time. You have to advertise to keep regular customers and to counterbalance the advertising of your competition.
 
7. Advertising Keeps Your Business Top-of-Mind with Customers. Your name must be fresh in their minds when they decide to buy.

8. Advertising Gives Your Business a Successful Image. In a competitive market, rumors and bad news travel fast. Nothing sets the record straight faster than advertising; it tells your customers and competitors that your doors are open and you're ready for business. Vigorous and positive advertising can bring shoppers into the marketplace, regardless of the economy.

9. Advertising Maintains Morale. Positive advertising boosts morale. It gives your staff strong image and additional support. When advertising or promotion is suddenly cut or cancelled, salespeople and employees may become alarmed or demoralized. They may start false rumors in the honest belief that your business is in trouble.

10. Advertising Brings in Big Bucks for Your Business! Advertising works. Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You'll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful. Join their ranks by advertising and watch your business grow!

"In good times people want to advertise, in bad times they have to" -Bruce Barton (Onset of the great depression) Chairman BBDO

Organic business consulting differentiates the Adbongo flavor of cause marketing in that most of the real help we offer to our good-cause-clients is rooted below the surface, out of the spotlight. Our process allows us to provide real, meaningful help as opposed to fluffy PR and brownie points on the reputation index. Our clients naturally look good in the public eye because they are full-time servants. Beyond promoting the right image for our clients, we promote the long-term success of their companies so that they will be able to continue to serve for as long as they want to.

In practical terms, our organic business consulting process removes the rigidity of business-by-numbers. Instead, our process incorporates a flexibility which allows natural, organic and sustainable growth of our clients’ companies. For example, we streamline teams for each project rather than paying salaries for an army of cubicle-dwellers whose talents are only sometimes needed. By tailoring teams, we keep overhead low and prices affordable for clients with missions we believe in but whose piggy banks may only be half full. We also devised a highly flexible pricing structure which allows us to include clients at virtually all budget levels. As we grow our clients’ businesses, all elements evolve and change with them: teams expand and services are added.

Cause marketing specialists driven by our natural, flexible process, Adbongo represents the permaculture approach to business consulting.
