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.

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.

St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany had a need: create a unique and interactive iPad-specific ad for the launch of the Times Union’s app.
Enter Burst Marketing and the IntelliSites web design team.
Using Adobe® Edge, which is currently in development, our team designed ad functionality using JavaScript and CSS to replicate an interactive Flash ad, but without Flash.
We also hand-coded, using CSS, the images so they display properly whether you’re holding the iPad horizontally or vertically.

Long-time business owners form ‘umbrella’ company to share, streamline and expand – The Business Review (Albany):
January 14, 2010
For Immediate Release: January 14, 2010
Albany, NY – Today, the principals of the Capital Region’s largest independent web developer, a leading print management and design firm, and a nationally known business marketing strategist announce the launching of Burst Marketing. This new, full-service marketing partnership is unique in that it focuses on strategy first. Then it builds goal-oriented creative and communications programs to help its clients reach short-term business objectives.
Burst Marketing was born from the teaming up of IntelliSites, the largest independent web designer in the Capital Region; imPress Printing & Graphics, Inc., one of the area’s oldest and largest print management and design firms; and Steve Banis, a Fortune 100 marketing pro, formerly of Banis Marketing.
Working together as Burst Marketing positions the new partnership among the top 10 marketing communications firms in the area.
“Together, we understand first-hand how today’s Web, social media, and other technology-based marketing tactics need to mesh with traditional marketing and advertising tools – to produce high returns on our clients’ marketing investments,” said Dave Borland, Burst Principal and president of IntelliSites, located in Albany.
“A Burst Marketing program is laser-focused on reaching measurable goals within a specific period of time,” according to Steve Banis. “We develop marketing strategy and deliver effective creative services that generate leads, customers and revenue. And we do it within today’s slimmer budgets.”
Dave Vener, Burst Principal and vice president of imPress, explains what else sets Burst apart: “We have a defined process for reaching specific business objectives – that’s what makes Burst Marketing different from advertising agencies and other marketing firms,” says Vener.
“So while many of our competitors sell themselves on how creative they are, we’re focused on building a client’s bottom line,” adds Sharon Lawless, imPress president and the fourth of the Burst founders. “That doesn’t mean we don’t ever deliver the pretty, cool stuff. It means we focus on goal-driven creativity that makes our clients’ phones ring. And they think that’s pretty cool.”
