Train of Thought

• http://www.trainofthought.net

I provide clients with fully integrated branding and marketing communications, including strategic planning, actionable marketing plans, graphic design, corporate identity design, full-service branding, print advertising, copywriting, website design, illustration, internet advertising, media buying, packaging, and label design. Whew! I work closely with clients to ensure that you understand what we are doing together and how it will benefit your business, and ultimately, your sales prospects.

Word-of-mouth marketing alone is not enough for most businesses to reach their goals. I create and promote brands that are remembered and even loved. You've seen them, brands that are so strong that you dream about owning them, you talk about them with your friends and peers, and you are excited to see and buy their latest offering. Train of Thought's creations build more visibility and instant credibility for a brand than any other form of marketing.

Branding is more than a buzzword to me. I have named, designed, and launched over 75 successful niche brands. I have also helped resurrect old brands to make them stand out and flourish again. Our full list of branding services includes strategy, positioning, naming, graphic design, analysis, standards development, and periodic brand audits.

My clients' communications consistently achieve exceptional results, often increasing brand recognition by 100%, website traffic by true leaps and bounds, and sales by more than 500%. In many cases, I can significantly reduce advertising expenditure while increasing response. Our work has helped businesses more than quadruple in size.

Every effort I make for my clients is geared towards increasing visibility and credibility. I have been using this approach for over 23 years, and it works every time. If you have a valuable service or product, I can help you meet or exceed your sales goals.

We are solely focused on obtaining maximum effectiveness for our clients. If you need to increase your web traffic or sales prospects, we can devise and launch a campaign that will achieve that goal. If your goal is increased brand recognition, we are extremely adept at getting you noticed and remembered. Even if you already have a strong brand, but you need to increase awareness, we can bring you the visibility that you need.

Call me any time for a no-charge 30-minute consultation, and you will meet an open-minded designer and writer with energy and a passion for creating outstanding marketing communications.

I specialize in strategy development, identity design, copywriting, advertising, full-service branding, label design, illustration, and website design. I am particularly adept at creating messages that make emotional connections. All of my services are focused on increasing visibility and credibility, while stimulating action and increasing sales.

I am looking for a good literary agent. I enjoy working with good people who love what they do. I like people who play well with others. I enjoy collaborating with other designers and web developers.

23 years of working with clients has taught me a lot, though I did graduate from an art school in a time before the Mac existed. I learn something new with each client.

I have been providing exceptional creative solutions for 23 years.
