2. How to build an audience.
It starts with a Website designed to answer your visitor’s need. It continues as
we deliver your message to the right audience at the right time through social
marketing and search marketing. It ends when we create a tie that binds.
It’s not easy.
True ties can’t be earned at the end of a line item or an RFP. True ties are born
out of an authentic passion for a product or service is channeled into authentic
content delivered directly to your audience. Or were you calling them your
customers?
3. The industry will never be the same.
There’s a tidal wave of change sweeping through the advertising and marketing
industry. Traditional agencies don’t understand the interactive space and are
struggling to fit the new system into their old system. Clients, demanding results,
are running out of patience.
Cement Marketing is a product of that change.
We’re rogue marketers who jumped ship or who have never been on a ship,
completely free of corporate or agency baggage. As a result, we are re-writing all
of the rules in the name of earning results. We do what makes sense and what’s
best for our client’s interactive marketing campaigns.
The result? Zero barriers between our search, social and Web teams. By crossing
all channels without having to cross departments or through account directors,
there are no limits to our results or creativity.
4. Yep, we can do that.
We are a full service, results-driven interactive marketing firm. For some of our clients
we work as an extension of their interactive marketing team. For others, we are their
interactive marketing team. Because we do it all – Web, social and search – we have
the liberty of creating a strategy that fits our client’s needs, not our own bottom line.
