NEW SITE TO SERVE YOU

Good Morning:

These are truly turbulent times. Each day a new issue surfaces that affects our industry as well as our individual livelihoods. It’s not business as usual; it’s unusual business.

Whatever issue prompted your initial registration here @ agencyfinder.com has probably been resolved by now; however, these uncertain times have necessitated innovative and unprecedented marketing efforts for many. To help your business weather the current challenges in the marketplace, we invite you to take another look at the Internet’s leading on-line and off-line consulting service for client and agency matchmaking.

Driven by today’s economic and global events, we’ve seen an ever-increasing demand for more

precision to identify and pair clients with advertising and public relations firms. We’ve been working for the last six months on a significantly improved Web site. It’s our first major re-design in three years and it’s ready today.

NEW SEARCH FEATURES & ATTRIBUTES:

Our latest version of agencyfinder.com is packed with new features and attributes that will help find your ideal marketing agency — more precisely and quicker than ever before. By example, we’ve added 31 new “fields served” (previous client experience); 23 new “services offered”; and you can even narrow your search by location.

Once you’ve finished scoring the agency’s essays and case histories, you get a complete report – not just to show compatibility with your search, but a complete and comprehensive report on ALL their attributes.

You’ll have far more than an agency list; you’ll have candidates that meet ALL your requirements. And clients appreciate our formal invitational process that identifies and introduces you to each agency’s new business executive; not a receptionist or thenew business coordinator.

Our agency-sponsored service means you search without cost; it’s the equivalent of a full-featured consultant search… for free!

THE NEW ECONOMY:

Headlines are filled with gloom and doom. Major corporations fail to meet stated expectations for revenue and profit. Extensive layoffs are becoming the norm. The Fed cuts rates. What’s next?

If ever there was a time to find the perfect agency partner to insure that your marketing is working as hard as possible, that time is now. If it’s any indication, new clients registering for searches have increased significantly in the past few weeks over seasonal norms. f you have an agency (advertising, public relations, etc.) but if they’re not performing up to expectations and if you’ve already discussed this with them, then consider a quick, CONFIDENTIAL search to check your options. With agencyfinder.com, no one other than our staff knows of your registration and search – until you’re ready to announce it.

PRE-SEARCH ASSISTANCE:

If our process is new for you, or if this is a new assignment and you’d like to talk it through before you begin on-line, call us Toll-Free @ 1-877-XFINDER. That service is free as well.
