Clear Ideas

\\Event Planning
Have a special event coming up? Sometimes a great idea never makes it to reality because of the work and confusion involved in pulling a special event together. That is where we can make a difference. We can handle publicity and/or organization for you. From press releases to invitations, from sponsors to special guests, we can pull it all together so the day is a success.

\\On-site Seminars

Clear Ideas can conduct seminars right at your facility to give you valuable tools for growth and improvement. The professional staff is available to provide training on a variety of topics from improving internal communications to marketing to the public to polishing your customer service skills. Our feedback from prior seminars has been extremely positive. Please call our office to talk about your training needs.

\\Meeting Facilitation

When meetings take place that involve various parties and needs, it’s helpful to have a neutral party that can concentrate on the facilitation portion. A skillful facilitator can help the group focus on key issues, encourage involvement, and leave key leaders open to participate fully in the discussion. Meeting facilitation is available for large and small groups dealing with a variety of issues.

\\Marketing Consulting

What is the difference between advertising and marketing? Do you have a marketing plan that includes more than just advertising? Let us help you identify the needs of your customers, who your target market is, and the effectiveness of your marketing. That can include a cost-effective advertising plan that determines where to advertise, how much to spend and how to know if it's working. We can do a one time consultation or you can contract with us to handle your marketing needs over a period of time.

\\Strategic Planning

Do you know your business’ strengths? Do you use them in your advertising and marketing? Do you know your business’ weaknesses? Are you inadvertently advertising them? Are you missing some opportunities? Are there threats that are keeping you from growing? These questions can be answered through our analysis of your business. Don’t make the mistake that many businesses do – not knowing what to promote and what not to promote.

\\Profit or Non-Profit Partnerships
Who are your partners in success? Many businesses are not aware of the positive impact community partnerships can have on their bottom line. Our staff has years of experience in working with and in both the profit and non-profit communities and seeing the benefits of seeing the two work together. Let Clear Ideas help you identify ways to get the most of sponsorships and community involvement.

\\Capital Campaigns
If your organization is considering or is involved in a capital campaign, we can provide knowledge and guidance to help you make the most of your efforts. Our experience ranges from assisting with individual pieces of a campaign to organizing and overseeing the entire process.
