Karner Blue Marketing rolls out the "MARKETING-MAKEOVER" for businesses in need of an image boost. The MARKETING-MAKEOVER is designed to help organizations of 1 to 1000 assess and adapt their branding and marketing presence to current market trends.

"Many businesses forget about nurturing their brand and corporate identity as their business evolves over time" explains Rebecca Murtagh, Chief Strategist for Karner Blue Marketing, "We begin with an assessment that helps businesses evaluate their brand as it relates to their core values while adapting to current market trends and influence of the competition".

The MARKETING-MAKEOVER is especially meaningful for businesses or individuals that have become more successful than their brand represents. Professional Speakers, Consultants and other sole-practitioners can become quite successful, yet their marketing material may be outdated or less professional than they would like to appear. It may become easier to negotiate top-dollar for your expertise when you have a high-end appearance.

Small businesses often encounter growth that will leave their corporate identity, if they had one, in the dust.

The MARKETING-MAKEOVER is designed to rejuvinate and revive the marketing presence on and off-line, including everything from logo/brand development, packaging, stationary and e-business, web site environments.

"I can't tell you how many times I have had a client tell me that they were actually embarrassed to show their business card or send someone to a website" said Rebecca. This is our way of helping businesses regain control of their marketing message to the world.
