but what about... printed material

Since 1996, providers of marketing services have, as a group, shifted focus many times. Articulate Consultants has encountered, for example, numerous graphic designers offering print brokering: ostensibly, a quality-assurance service whereby they would deal with every aspect of the printing process — for business cards, posters, direct-mail items, etc. — so that their clients could simply take delivery, then enjoy the beauty of fine finished products and the benefits of their use.

In its era (before the dominance of the web and the accompanying perception that ink on paper can never truly be green) print brokering typically amounted to profiteering: the most profitable item on an invoice; the easiest money.

Articulate Consultants not only recommends efficient, ethical business-practice improvements to its clients, but also stands apart from others by conducting business without compromising virtues for the sake of easy profits.

Any Articulate client gets expert-designed, professionally-printed ink-on-paper materials — green and economical — as and when their situation calls for the advantage it stands to bring to them.

but what about... the worldwide web

Since the days when the term "new media" carried an air of novelty, Articulate Consultants has witnessed various specialists in web-focused marketing. From initial website design and content creation to website hosting and ongoing updates, a comprehensive suite of web-marketing services still strikes most as belonging in the hands of experts. Better to focus simply on knowing your own business; right?

Strategic SEO paired with PPC advertising, plus monitoring and management of lead generation, of cost-per-click, of conversion rates, of organic vs inorganic search ranking, etc — all presented as mutually compatible and necessary — still position driving traffic to a great website as somehow paramount.

Somehow, your business serving its customers as well as it can gets omitted from the conversation. Could search-engine marketing actually deserve more of your resources than knowing your customers and delivering the best value you can to each customer at a price fair to both buyer and seller every day?

Success from blogging demands perpetual demonstration of timely relevance. Success from tweeting demands relentless substance and succinctness. Failure at either resembles that of the boy who cried wolf.

Articulate Consultants can tell — objectively — when the absolutely-everything-online approach fits and when it does not. Indeed, Articulate not only recognizes when web-marketing services warrant suitable investment, and has access to necessary expertise, but also stands apart from others by entering new business relationships without the bias of having something to sell.

When a prospective new client contacts Articulate, the response, "What need do you hope to adress by reaching out to us?" conveys equal sincerity and simplicity.
