A quick summary of October Strategies Capabilities (pdf).

Business-to-business marketing and communications

Because Everything’s Connected in the Business World

October Strategies ventures beyond the typical parameters of a public relations firm. We work with companies to integrate communications into their broader business operations. We've created and executed noteworthy affiliate marketing and communications campaigns using everything from custom paper dolls to mini mailboxes—all tying in with the business needs and messages of the client. We work with clients to realistically assess the competitive marketplace and their relationships with other businesses; review business marketing goals and how they can be accomplished; capitalize on existing alliances and how to forge new ones; and seek relationship-building opportunities to leverage a b-to-b network to best advantage.

Public Relations

October Strategies successfully establishes and executes communications programs with the media, employees, businesses, investors, local communities, vendors, customers ... anyone your business needs to reach. The experts at October Strategies are well-versed in all aspects of strategic communications planning, media relations, employee/internal communications, community relations and crisis communications. We are proficient in each client’s business structure, operations and objectives — tying integrated communications programs and processes directly to them.

Marketing, Promotions and Events

Fear the Conventional

Communications takes many forms – in fact everything a company says and does can be perceived as a type of communications that delivers a specific message to a specific audience. So when you send a gift, host a dinner, sponsor a charitable event, exhibit at a trade show, or keep your clients apprised of the latest, you should seek unique, imaginative ways to express yourself, while still respecting your company’s values, priorities and resources. October Strategies has experience in creating and executing attention-getting marketing and promotional programs, organizing memorable events and delivering clever premiums and gifts – all designed to send a specific business message. As members of the Promotion Marketing Association (PMA), we have access to a network of valuable contacts that we put to work for our clients. Why settle for ordinary?

Business and Leadership Counsel

Reflecting Your Best

Beyond the professional realm, October Strategies also offers individuals a separate service that we call Personal Leadership Counsel. We work personally and confidentially with executives who are seeking to increase their public profile, improve their image, and gain truthful insight into how others view them, so they can get to the next level of their careers. Our unique service is valuable on its own, or used in conjunction with professional coaches and career development programs. It’s not easy to look in the mirror, but October Strategies guides those committed to self-improvement through detailed information and analysis and develops a customized plan of recommendations to take action and move forward.
