Americans are bombarded with marketing messages. Thousands of times each day, consumers see images or hear words designed to shape their desires or change their buying habits. For consumers and for marketers, it’s become a case of diminishing returns. Your customers have a collective case of attention-deficit disorder — one that’s getting worse, not better.

Unfortunately, many Dallas marketing and PR firms contribute to this problem by taking a “bulk” approach to getting your company’s message out.

We Do the Homework to Tell Your Story Right

At most PR agencies, for example, the strategy for pitching your story to the media is similar to that of a cold-call boiler room. They make many calls to reporters to increase their chances of a placement. And they typically assign a junior staffer — who knows very little about your company — to do the work. The staffer might make 100 calls to journalists to get mentioned in, say, three publications. And the agency presents that as a success.

At Idea Grove, we worry about the 97 other calls. Did the caller, because of his or her inexperience or lack of knowledge, have rude or embarrassing interactions with reporters that will cause them to never write about your product or company? It happens every day.

We don’t take a “bulk” approach at Idea Grove — in media and blog relations, brand development, Web design, or anything we do. We do the homework to make sure the messages we create, and the media we use, will resonate with your target audiences. We can help you reach your customers, your investors or any other group that is important to you. We don’t waste words and we don’t waste time — our clients’ time, the media’s time, or our own time.

We Tear Down the Walls to Make Your Life Easier

We also know that the walls between public relations agencies, branding and design firms are coming down — particularly for companies that are serious about their online presence. Today, online public relations, social media, SEO and Web design are overlapping disciplines; this means that your best choice is a single provider.

Idea Grove is a full-service Dallas marketing and PR firm specializing in public relations, online marketing and Web design. We work with clients ranging from Fortune 1000 mainstays to venture-backed startups, helping their brands to stand out in the crowd in today’s noisy information marketplace.

Every good gardener knows that it takes a variety of tools to make a garden flourish. At Idea Grove, we know which tools work best to achieve a specific result. Need a public relations program integrated with your social media? We’ve got the tools to do it. Need a coherent branding strategy supported by your Web presence and print collateral? We’ve got those tools, too.

We Know What Works — and What Doesn’t — for You

The principals at Idea Grove have been around. On the client side, we’ve developed annual marketing plans, built multimillion-dollar campaigns and launched products. On the agency side, we’ve developed brands, generated leads and taken our clients’ businesses to new levels of visibility and success.

We also know as much as any Dallas marketing firm about social media, because it’s been a core part of our business since 2005. We’ve learned what works and what doesn’t. We know what’s changed, and what hasn’t, when it comes to creating a successful marketing program.

But enough about us. Let’s talk about you.
