We become a HubSpot Certified Agency. HubSpot is the world’s foremost inbound marketing platform, leading the way in permission-based marketing automation to fuel business growth in a single platform, with CRM, email, website building, landing pages, workflows and more.

Addressing the need for more engaged communication, we begin using the marketing automation platform Pageflex and shift toward more personalized, one-to-one marketing campaigns, while also providing traditional marketing, microsites, direct mail, email and graphic design.

We begin using Silver Pop IBM, one of the world's first marketing automation platforms to help clients create and manage multichannel digital marketing campaigns. Our traditional marketing services remain a robust part of our portfolio and include graphic design and print.

In response to changing market trends and the emergence of digital marketing, we started using Market Bright to help primarly advertising clients with email and digital marketing efforts. These new services supplement our growing suite of traditional marketing services.
