Integrated marketing wasn’t something we started doing because it was the “next big thing” in our field. We’ve had these combined focus areas under the same roof for almost ten years and have expanded the team and services throughout the time. So, in addition to web, print collateral, video production, advertising, graphic design, public relations and multimedia services, we also offer fully customized marketing programs that act as “turn-key” for your practice.

In addition, virtual brochure design through digital media serves a related function to its print counterpart:
