No dog. No pony. No bull.

We're a communications agency that serves as advocates for your consumers while doing what's right for your business. Whether through internet & interactive, direct mail or mass media, we deliver results that forge a continuum between your message and the public-at-large. At the core of our efforts is a radical technique we call 'listening.'

Factoids:

Truly brilliant work means your message impressed your consumers, and provoked the desired response. That's what Off to Market does best.

You know your business, and we know ours. In partnership, we can bring together the best that each of us have to offer.

We're happy to abide by our client's internal processes, or to structure one specifically for the project at hand and designed to surface quality and efficiency, not just indemnify the agency.

Off to Market understands tech to be both art and science. Efficiency, elegance, security, performance and usability must blend together, and seamlessly serve the design and communication goals.

We deliver powerful creative that focuses on your brand and your audience, not simply designed around "the new hotness" and tracking trends.

Aside from our founding partners, we have no full-time employees. Instead, partner vendors and professional contractors allow us to quickly and conveniently assemble teams specifically designed to meet our client's changing needs.

Strategy should be unique to the client and their products. Sometimes this means tracking competition & trends, sometimes this means following other avenues of exploration. The deciding factor is what's best for your business, and your consumers.

Prolific experience. Efficiency and value. Trust earned. Pure partnership. You can expect this and more from Off to Market.

Is Off to Market a good fit for your company? Take our 8 question quiz and find out for yourself!

Question 1 of 8: What do you expect from your agency?

Beautiful offices, expensive designer furniture and all the gourmet coffee my fees can afford. Legions of Account Executives waiting with baited breath for the opportunity to turn our conversations into status reports. Pursuit of industry awards over all else. Dedication to putting their experience and expertise to work for my business in productive partnership.

Question 2 of 8: What drives your marketing strategy?

Everything our competition is doing, we need to be doing too! Whatever the current trend is, we need to be there - whether it's appropriate or not! Who needs strategy? Just sell, sell, sell! Customer engagement & satisfaction, brand recognition and return on investment.

Question 3 of 8: What talent should work on your business?

I'm sure whoever has time available will do a great job! We'll adapt our business to the solutions that leverage an agency's best talent. Outsource everything to Korea or India! The cost savings will always outweigh any problems with quality, timing or culturalization. Experts in the very strategies and media we've agreed will best meet our business objectives.

Question 4 of 8: How do you judge great creative?

It looks just like all the other creative in the market right now. Everything is big, bold, moving, making noises and slathered in logos for various social media destinations. My agency will convince me that I like it. It provides an engaging experience, communicates my message efficiently and approachably, and presents my brand in the most favourable light possible.

Question 5 of 8: How do you judge great technology?

The industry certifications of the people who made it are enough to reassure me. Microsoft wouldn't certify just anyone, right? Pfffft! What's there to judge? My thirteen year old cousin can build a web page just by clicking a few buttons! I shouldn't judge techie stuff - after all, I'm not a computer wizard. It is seemless, efficient and passes clear and meaningful quality assurance tests.

Question 6 of 8: What processes should be in place?

An industrial-strength, internationally-recognized multifaceted set of unalterable steps which are followed without variation on every project. Whatever the agency normally does. I'm sure we can adjust the project timelines and budgets to accommodate it. Process is just agency-talk for stealing my money! A light-weight, collabourative process designed to promote quality and meet the needs of a specific project.

Question 7 of 8: Who knows your business better than you?

Account Executives who just spent several months managing a client in a different industry. Award show judges. No one - everyone else is an idiot. No one, but I need trusted partners who can bring their own unique insights and expertise to the table.

Question 8 of 8: What defines marketing success?

Customer satisfaction and loyalty. Increased brand recognition and consumer awareness. Increased sales and/or market share. All of the above
