Process

For us, it starts with research—and not just the market kind. We take a deep dive into the ins and outs of your business, what makes it unique, who your people are, and how your customers view you. We become a part of your team. Once we’ve arrived at the heart of your business, then—and only then—will we begin the communications planning and strategy. We want to ensure that from the moment your target customer engages with your brand, they connect. It’s this connection that drives everything we do on your behalf. Once we’ve given people the reason they want to do business with you, we make sure they keep coming back.

Ashland Advertising has played an integral part in
our success this year by bringing high energy,
accountability, and expertise to the table. They
focus on the intangibles that most agencies leave
untouched and this brings higher focus, attention,
and efficiency to our strategies. Their approach
is always with their client in mind and they
will fight for every dollar or value-based incentive
available, and then some. It is nice knowing that I can
rely on Ashland Advertising to always answer my
call and follow through with their promises.
