That’s correct; your eyes aren’t deceiving you. The headline reads, “FREE Advertising, FREE PR, FREE Graphic Design,” and that’s exactly what we’re offering one promising company with our “Giving You the Business” contest! Because we’re 25. Let me explain.
Twenty-five years ago, M/C/C was born on a kitchen table in Dallas. The brain-child of our fearless leader Mike Crawford, this new agency was the first public relations firm in the Southwest to specifically cater to high-technology clients and the telecommunications industry. However, the small agency soon outgrew its home on the kitchen table with one extremely long-corded telephone carried down from upstairs.
Today, we’re a team of 30 people – still led by Mike – who specialize in integrated marketing communications with disciplines that run the gamut from public relations to social media, advertising, media, graphic design, copywriting, strategy, search, website development, and the list goes on. Never abandoning our technology roots, we now serve a long list of clients spanning all industries.
In celebrating our 25th anniversary, we wanted to pay homage to Mike’s American Dream as well as recognize the types of companies that helped us get our start and grow along the way. So in the spirit of giving back and living the unexpected, we’re happy to announce our “Giving You the Business” contest!
It’s not often you hear about a gimmick-free contest, but that’s exactly what this is. One small- to medium-sized business will win a day of pro-bono work from all of us at M/C/C – 30 professionals who are known to deliver foot traffic, page views and smiles. The winning business will receive an introductory consultation to evaluate current business objectives and discuss previous and current marketing strategies, up to three weeks of strategic and creative development and one full day to implement the final project. The business will have all of our services (and staff!) at its disposal for an entire day.
If this sounds appealing to your business or a business owner you know, hop on over or direct your friends to www.givingyouthebiz.com to learn more, read about the contest rules and ENTER YOUR BUSINESS!
The deadline to nominate a business is Oct. 8, 2011. The winning business will be notified between Oct. 9 and 15. The prize will be awarded in-person at the location of the winning company between Oct. 30 and Nov. 5.
Turns out that the “American Dream” isn’t dead, but living the unexpected instead.
