Small Business Optimism Surging

By | C&S Creative Services | No Comments

Small business owners view the economy as surging, giving them an incentive to hire and grow this year, according to surveys released last week by the National Small Business Association and National Federation of Independent Business. The surveys are in line with others showing owners more optimistic after the election and start of 2017. The more upbeat view is a reason for owners to add jobs, a shift from the recession and its aftermath. Forty-three percent of the 1,426 owners questioned had a more upbeat assessment of the economy, compared to 22 percent last summer. Fifty-four percent of owners expect the economy to grow during the next year – up from 29% last summer.

With the business climate looking up and industry technology ever changing, call C&S Creative to lift your business presence through digital and print marketing support. From freshening your brand, to developing a mobile-responsive website, we can help generate sales leads for ultimate growth.

WEB TRENDS FOR 2016

By | C&S Creative Services | No Comments

Natural stock photography, bold colors and infographics are among the website design trends to watch for in 2016. Flat designs are the rage, providing a clear, contemporary look that snaps on a page. Fun, user-friendly graphics make the online experience more captivating and relevant. Social marketing and SEO are a work in progress requiring constant attention.  Google has set so many parameters for spider-grabbing content that it’s important to maintain updates almost daily. And, if your website is older than your iPad, chances are it’s outdated and incompatible with modern mobile devices.

In this day of ever changing digital trends, it’s ever more important to install techniques and practices for developing and optimizing your online presence. Like anything else, why not hire professional experts who practice and hone their skills in smart web techniques daily?

We at C&S Creative make a point to stay on top of digital trends and technology in order to place our clients at the forefront of their industries.

Harvest Great Marketing This Fall

By | C&S Creative Services | No Comments

The mass exodus for school supplies, football season and sponsored pumpkin carvings present great opportunities for marketing. Now is the time when bright summer advertising transforms into richer hues and seasonal photography switches to fall foliage. We trade in our sandals for boots and switch from light summer fare to hearty stews, roasts and warm breads.  As the leaves turn, firewood stokes the basket near the hearth – not necessarily because it’s cold, but because television ads and fall previews tell us it’s time.

No doubt, the cooler temperatures of fall bring a welcome change in outlook making this a great time to dig in, promote, get out and market your business. Fall is perfect for setting goals, getting creative and preparing for success. You can use the transition to implement marketing campaigns that keep your business visible and strengthen your brand. Create fall specials, offer services with autumn themes, tie the season to your marketing. Design a fall newsletter, eblast, direct mailer in the spirit of Thanksgiving. Sponsor fall races and contests and blog about them. Use this time of year to talk about your business through online or print correspondence so your clients know you’re alive and well.

Hunker down and prepare your annual marketing strategy and budget in time for fourth-quarter, when media reps are more apt to honor last year’s rates and vendors make a last-ditch effort to meet their numbers.

Which brings us to C&S Creative … we’re coming into fall with colorful ideas to generate new sales and transform your business. Call us to turn things around, from Thanksgiving promotions to Holiday Cards and brochures. We can help create a compelling name and logo for your new business or develop your website and digital campaign in time for the ski season. Like the welcome change in seasons, now is a great time to revive your marketing. Call C&S Creative today.

Keeping It Local

By | C&S Creative Services | No Comments

One of the benefits of living in a small town is the unity and patronage that exists between locals and local businesses. We live together and play together, so why would we not support one another by working together, as well? A few years ago, C&S worked on a campaign for Park City Municipal Corporation called “Keep It PC.” This campaign shed light on the benefits of supporting our local economy, including the facts that capabilities are high here and the trickle down really matters, with benefits to the entire community. C&S has been operated since 1987, a long time when it comes to seeing changes in our town. But the one thing that has remained constant in Park City is the sense of community that exists here, and that is what makes our city so special.

Marketing Intelligence: Hire a small agency as your in-house team

By | C&S Creative Services | No Comments

Seems the latest trend for mean-and-lean businesses is to acquire versus hire your marketing team. That allows clients to enjoy both freedom and creativity without having to pay salaries, taxes and benefits. In other words, you can utilize your outside marketing team as you would an in-house staff.

From a budget standpoint, acquiring the services of a seasoned, insightful, creative team makes sense. You can pay for the services you need without wasted hours from employee downtime. Also, acquiring an outside marketing squad provides for a sounding board for business owners and marketing directors who sometimes become emotional and knee-jerk with their decisions. And, most importantly, your outside marketing team goes away when you no longer need them, saving you the headache of carrying  dead weight.

So, when you’re ready to embark on a professional marketing strategy with an enthusiastic group of creatives call C&S!

Warming Up To New Business

While climate change refers to the affect of global warming on our earth, at the moment, I’m wondering about its effect on local business. A balmy 50 degrees on a Wednesday in mid-February, the phones aren’t much ringing and it doesn’t seem like folks are in the mood to conduct business. What’s more, there are feet of snow dumping on the east, making it tough for those customers to focus on business.
