The Marketing Motivator announces the launch of the Marketing Smart Start Program

Vancouver, BC, Canada — Jennifer Henczel, The Marketing Motivator, has created the Marketing Smart Start Program. The program offers powerful marketing and management strategies to companies who want a step-by-step solution for increasing sales.

"The focus of any marketing plan should include an Integrated Marketing approach to communicate a company's message more effectively," states Henczel, "Improve your results through consistency and uniformity".

What is Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC)? It is creating consistency throughout all aspects of marketing communication such as advertising, public relations, sales promotion, account management, direct marketing, and other forms of external and internal communications. All media and collateral working together as a unified force, for the purpose of promoting a consistent message, rather than each piece working in isolation.

According to Wikipedia's article on the topic, IMC is the name of a body of academic and practical work centered on aligning organizational communications with the needs of customers. The concept of IMC was originated by Professor Don Schultz at the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University.

These are the principles encompassed by The Marketing Smart Start Program. The program complements the many marketing and training services already available to Henczel's clients.

The idea of increasing the value of a company's marketing collateral by using an integrated approach has been gaining popularity in recent years," Henczel observes, "My new program guides clients through the marketing plan process, giving them optimal results within any market".

Henczel, who manages over 140 domains, has created several successful brands and information products. Her successful online marketing strategies are revealed through her many websites, which have become leading online sources of information in their respective industries. For example: Import Export Coach: The leading source for import export business start-up tips, articles, links, and information. www.importexportcoach.com
