DREAM.

You have one. Chances are, if you want to be a successful entrepreneur, you’re passionate about that dream.

The goal of our process- which we callOrganic Business Consulting”- is to bridge the gap between your dream and reality.    

What do you need to know in order to manifest your business goals? Whether you’re just starting to mold the initial idea or your established business is in need of a re-sculpt, Adbongo can help.  We devise and implement the kind of high-tier strategy typically only accessible to large companies with big budgets.

REALITY. How do we help you realize your business dreams?

ORGANIC BUSINESS CONSULTING: it’s a simple name for a simple process. Our process cultivates idea orchards.

1. We plant seeds through education.
*We teach entrepreneurs the universal process used by the big agencies. Most of these big agencies have created fancy copyrighted names for their processes, but, in reality, they all boil down to the same basic ingredients: *Research *Strategy based on that research *Execution of that strategy.
*By understanding this process, clients are empowered to make wiser purchase decisions.

2. We grow ideas by utilizing our Organic Business Consulting process.
*Research phase: First, we conduct market research, which may include focus groups, mystery shoppers, or other applicable methods, and we evaluate the competition for your idea.
*Strategy phase: Then, we come up with detailed blueprints based on our research findings. We consult with you regarding your business plan, we write or revise your marketing plan, and we develop creative materials to promote your message.
*Execution phase: Finally, we execute the creative aspects of your campaign based on the blueprints developed in the strategy phase. We produce your website, video blog, TV commercials, social media accounts, or other modalities as applicable to your particular plan.

3. We fertilize innovation by:

*Keeping overhead low. We give brilliant minds with not-so-deep pockets access to high tier initiatives by tailoring teams for your particular project.
*Staying limber. Our business model is designed to stretch and flex with your particular needs in order to catalyze a high ROI (return on investment).

Candidates

Designing and developing one’s dream business is highly personal. The founders of the business shape its look, feel and identity based upon personal creative taste and subjective preferences. Therefore, we believe entrepreneurs should step back and evaluate whether or not they are compatible with the consultants and advertising professionals they choose to help nurture their businesses. How can a business consultant help an entrepreneur develop her dream business if he doesn’t understand that dream?

We at Adbongo understand that we should only forge relationships with those clients with whom we’re compatible. What, then, are we looking for in a relationship?

*A sparkly smile…
*Nice calves…

Or more importantly,
*A sense of humor. While there is nothing funny about the majority of work we produce- business plans are not funny- our ideal candidates are professional but not stuffy, uptight or difficult.

*An appreciation of the value of our services. Our ideal candidates are happy to work with us. We do not engage in the hard sell. We want our clients to commence our working relationships with enthusiasm, free from the bruises and aches inflicted when vendors corral clients into contracts.

*Our ideal candidates have excellent, innovative ideas but are unsure how to translate them into concrete business ventures, or they need help growing their existing businesses.

*Our ideal candidates are passionate about transforming their business dreams into realities because they believe their products or services are going to improve the health of the planet or society.

*Our ideal candidates may not be educated in business or marketing fields (that’s where we come in), but they thoroughly understand their own industries.

*Candidates for our social media network consulting or training services may be slightly behind the curve when it comes to technology, internet marketing and social media networking (but are computer literate to some degree).

The economic twister that has left traditionally-structured businesses in shambles has prompted creative minds to build a hybrid non-profit/for-profit model united by common goals. Non-profit Austin Art & Music Partnership (A.A.M.P.) welcomed three businesses – Adbongo Inc, Xlantic Media, and Dj Dojo – to join them in a 7000 square foot complex on South First Street they moved into this month.

A.A.M.P., Adbongo, Xlantic, and Dj Dojo are working to bridge the gap between the old Austin art and music scene and the new. Their mission is to ignite, empower and heal the community. Together, they have pledged to provide a physical work/studio space, tools and workshops to include multi-media production, marketing, business development, dj lessons, bike building, metal art construction and more for the local Austin community.

Aaron Williams and Peyton Wimmer of A.A.M.P. are the note from which a chord was built: they are the founding fathers of this collaborative. Their past experiences include the founding and development of Austin’s SIMS bringing mental health and substance abuse services to local musicians. They currently run Musicians On Call, The James Burton Foundation and BikeNotes at the A.A.M.P. “411″ (creative urban warehouse in South Austin). These two have dedicated the last 15 years to helping the creative community and it’s very exciting to see their vision of A.A.M.P. become a reality.

The innovators creating the A.A.M.P. complex – which is already decorated with countless monkeys and fire-powered art courtesy of South Austin’s Enchanted Forest – will be throwing an unforgettable event encapsulating their mission of uniting the old and new art + music community.

Our Process

Like other successful agencies, research, strategy, and great creative work make up our backbone.

We call our process:

We Plant Seeds: Our free audit, consumer report, and initial consultation leave potential clients with the ability to make vast improvements, just by shaking our hand.

We Water: Upon hire, we pour on the research. This results in the holy grail of business success: a Marketing Plan tailored to the client’s strongest point of differentiation.

We Use Light: A positive message and the resulting creative strategy make our clients shine.

No additives used: We make sure there is nothing in the budget that doesn’t have a strong ROI.

No Pesticides used: Outside team members will be recruited and properly managed when it’s beneficial to the execution of any plan.

No Up-Rooting: We encourage clients to stay in their comfort zone until we have built a foundation of trust.

We Grow: Research, superior creative work, a streamlined budget, and a team tailored to implement the resulting plan will result in exponential growth.

We’re Green: Yes, this may be cliche’, but we were on this wagon before it was cool.

We don’t support advertising that is harmful to the environmental or physical health of this planet or its inhabitants.Guaranteed design approval or money back. Adbongo Inc. reserves the right to return payment, and refuse work if it is merited.

Traditional Vs. Organic

Why use an ad agency? Here are just a few of the many reasons…

*Outside Perspective*: Businesses need an outside perspective in order to identify problems they can’t see.

*Specialized Knowledge*: Agency professionals know tried and true methods that have worked for companies just like yours.

*Marketing Plan*: A plan is needed in order to optimize the marketing budget and to get results. An agency will provide this and more.

*Tailored Message*: An agency will find the strongest selling point and will make sure the target market knows about it. The target market will also be identified, if it is unknown.

*Better Rates*: Agencies can negotiate better rates for media and personnel then an individual business, while making sure quality is not being compromised.

*Save Cash*: Marketing not directed to a specific target and reflecting a message developed for this purpose, wastes time and money.

*Managed Production*: Minute details regarding advertising, marketing, and public relation plat¬forms, across web,print,television, radio mediums (just to name a few), have been known to make grown men cry. Carrying this torch alone is asking for a lot of trouble.

*Professional Image*: The work of an agency will raise the bar of public perception.

*Stress Relief*: Hiring an agency allows for management to worry about running the business, rather then worrying about where to find more.

*Get there faster*: The resources, specialization, and personnel a business gets from hiring an agency can be the difference between now and much, much, much later.

Now that you know why you should hire an ad agency, we hope you’ll choose us. Why should you? Because we’re the best (in our entirely objective opinion). End with why use adbongo which will go to “the gift”

Benefits

By on August 13, 2009 | Category: Uncategorized | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments

Can you define the word “the”? It’s such a simple word, and we all use it countless times every single day. In fact, it’s such a common word that most of us have never tried to define it. So what is the definition of “the”? According to dictionary.com, “the” is a definite article that is used, especially before a noun, with a specifying or particularizing effect, as opposed to the indefinite or generalizing force of the indefinite article _a_ or _an_. It’s likely that most of us took that definition for granted.

In the same way that we take the definition of “the” for granted, we also assume we know the benefits of advertising. Though most business owners know they should advertise, many may not be able to define exactly why. To better appreciate why advertising is the top investment every business should make, it’s important to spell out the many benefits:

Create Traffic: Continuous traffic is the first step toward increasing sales.

Attract New Customers: Constant market changes mean there are always new customers to reach.

Encourage Repeat Business:
Shoppers have mobility and more choices than ever. Advertise to outpace competition and encourage repeat business.

Generate Continuous Business:
Advertising can generate brand loyalty now and in the future.

Grow: A recent survey shows that companies which maintain or increase advertising over a five year period see an average sales increase of 100%.

Gain Advantage Over Competitors: This same survey showed companies that cut advertising grew at less than half the rate of those which advertised steadily.

Consumers Keep You In Mind:
A continuous media presence keeps products, ideas, or services fresh in customers’ minds for when they decide to buy.

Successful Image: Advertising presents a successful image, letting customers and competitors know that the doors are open and you’re ready for business.

Maintain Morale: Advertising can boost confidence, job security, and morale of staff.

Stay In The Race:
Vigorous and positive advertising can bring shoppers into the marketplace, regardless of the economy. Advertising keeps regular customers and counterbalances competitors’ advertising.

Big Bucks:
Businesses that succeed are strong, steady advertisers. Research shows the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.
