Burst Chief Marketing Officer Dave Borland was recently featured on FOX23 News.

“There’s a bunch of things that people need to look for on their website and they’ll often find themselves just building sites just to have them,” Borland told FOX23 News anchor Stephanie Grady. “Unfortunately, that’s not a good thing.”

When customers go into a restaurant and see a dirty floor, for example, they’re going to walk out, Borland said. The same is true for websites.

The New Burst Marketing – What it means for you.

April 4, 2012


Categories: Burst Marketing News

The merger of IntelliSites and ImPress could spell big things for clients.

Burst Marketing – having completed its merger of IntelliSites and ImPress Printing and Graphics – has solidified its position among the leading Marketing firms in the Capital Region.  (The Business Review ranks Burst Marketing in the top 10 for three years running.)

That’s’ all well and good, you say, but what does that mean for me and my business?

Fair enough.  So here’s the bottom line:  It means we’re even better at generating leads, launching new products and making your cash register ring.

The new Burst Marketing offers more marketing services, more focused strategies and creativity and even greater attention to generating returns on your marketing investment.  We’ve also added new creative talent and project managers to enhance our ability to deliver great work and outstanding service.

We’re still the best value in the Capital Region for web and traditional marketing services.

In addition to our core strengths in web design and marketing, print management, graphic design, and direct marketing,  we’ve added public relations, content development, video and extended our social media and inbound marketing capabilities.

And don’t forget what makes Burst really different from other agencies – strategy development with a laser-focus on achieving your goals.  And now, the new Burst Marketing offers marketing plans with Guaranteed Results. (contact us for more information)

Throughout this tough economy, we’ve been fortunate enough to continue to grow while most marketing firms haven’t.  Burst offers you the stability you’ll want in a long-term marketing partner.

We invite you to review our expanded menu of services.  Then call us to talk about growing your business.

If you have any other questions about the merger, please contact one of us.  Our emails are listed below.
