We’re confident in your brand (when we build it, of course!)

Confident enough to fund 60% of your branding for 12 months, interest free!


Introducing the ImageWorks Financing Plan

Why do we offer financing, and why at no interest?

The underfunding of marketing budgets is a leading reason why many businesses fail. Many businesses have either underfunded their marketing budget in past years or simply can’t fit a strategic re-branding (or initial branding) into their budgets. But the reality is that a marketing budget should be set at 5% to 12% of revenue (on average, depending on your industry) if you want to make an impact. We believe that when a good company has a good idea, service, or product, and builds a powerful brand using online & offline media with ImageWorks, it will be extremely successful; in turn, it’s easy for us to get paid when our strategies increase our clients’ revenues.

Why no interest? We’re not a bank and we don’t want to be—we want to help businesses grow, and increasing their profit level helps us. Charging interest just seems like overkill to us...so we simply don’t do it.

Another important benefit our program offers you is the ability to get all the media and strategies in place to maximize your chance for substantial revenue growth. Building just part of a brand is like having a football team with only a quarterback and a kicker...it just doesn’t work. By giving clients an affordable monthly payment, we enable them to take full advantage of all of our marketing and design services, including new identity and collateral, Web sites, client log-in sites, brochures, sales kits, print ads, direct mail pieces, search engine optimization, interactive presentations, Flash, pay-per-click campaigns, e-mail marketing, Blog design, exhibits, and much more.

How it works

  • We listen to/review your business summary and desired goals. If we like what we hear, and the business seems viable, we will be more than happy to enroll you in this program.
  • We prepare an itemized quote for all recommended branding services to position and propel your brand.
  • You choose which items to engage.
  • The contract is signed and a 40% deposit is collected.
  • We finance the balance for 12 months, beginning 60 days after we start your project. This gives you two months of no payments while we work on your brand.

Our goal

We want your business—this year...and the next…and so on. Once we have proven ourselves and our strategies, and our designs have increased your sales, we know you’ll come back to do more marketing projects with us. Even though brands, markets, and customers constantly change, we want to be a long-term partner you can trust to grow your business and keep you well ahead of the competition.

How Corporate Identity, Branding, Design, Advertising and Marketing Have Changed in the new millennium:

Since the technology boom in the mid 1990's we have seen a shift in traditional advertising agencies, marketing agencies, PR firms and branding firms. In fact large agencies have downsized or gone out of business with the onslaught on "mini" ad agencies, design firms, marketing firms, consultants, and web design and development companies and agencies.

These new design and marketing companies brought New Age thinking, creative services, web strategies, cutting-edge graphic design and web design and creative and persuasive copywriting. Many of these firms and agencies however, lack the expertise in marketing to create, develop and design a brand or a branding campaign that makes an impact, initiates a sales and marketing process, and capitalized on lead generation by actually closing more sales.

How is this done? It's done by starting with a compelling marketing message, analyzing and creating a compelling marketing environment, across all platforms of marketing, advertising and branding. Doing so not only generates sales but increases closing ration, reduces time spent, maximizes return on investment.

ImageWorks is a pioneer in this methodology, embracing the niche between the smaller web design and graphic design studios…who lack the "marketing first" insight, and advertising agencies, marketing and PR firms who demand hefty fees without substantial results…who often subcontract out their work to web design companies, marketing and PR companies and graphic design firms.
In today's high-paced market place it is important to make sure your brand has a high-impact marketing message that co-exists among all marketing and advertising media…with one common goal- converting prospects into buying customers.

Below is an excerpt from an article posted in our Blog:

Coffee Is for Closers!
The 1992 movie, "Glengarry Glen Ross", summed up the sales and marketing mentality of the time in two memorable quotes that still echo among sales people: "ABCs of sales - always be closing" and "Put down that coffee; coffee is for closers!"

Not anymore. Not today. Most companies use automated phone systems, which act as gatekeepers to weed out telemarketers. Most offices post "No Soliciting" signs. Fax numbers are much less frequently shared, and few decision makers have the time to sift through direct mail.

Two strategic shifts have occurred in "sales tectonics":

It's 2008. What Works? The first shift concerns the way people find information. Conventional methods such as direct mail, print ads and advertising, direct marketing, salespeople and trade shows still work, but they need to be reinforced with a powerful web brand. Most business-to-business and business-to-consumer searches for products and services are now done through search engines. To complicate things further, even if a company or product is discovered through traditional means, the next step, the "investigative" step, is almost always done via the Web.

ImageWorks Studio tested over 100 corporate Web sites, and very, very few successfully branded a professional look and feel, with a customer-centered message leading to intuitive navigation and calls to action to encourage prospect interaction.
