Business Description:
MC2 (MC Squared) is a specialist New-Media/Multimedia agency, and unlike many of our competitors who have simply added ‘internet development’ and 'new-media/mutlimedia' to their main business activity of print, graphic design, marketing etc. MC2 are focussed specifically on this sphere of development, working with other professionals to develop solutions for our clients.
Internet development - is more than just designing and publishing a website. MC2 uses their experience to develop a bespoke internet strategy to ensure the client’s internet presence matches the commercial needs of their business, based on their requirements and targets for the project. At the end of the project, MC2 ’s clients have a powerful internet-presence, rather than just a web site!
Online Marketing - MC2 can develop a bespoke on-line marketing strategy using search engine optimisation, search engine submission/strategy, emarketing and sponsored linking strategies to ensure your prospects find your website. Just building and owning a website isn’t enough! - you need to make sure people can easily find it. Unfortunately, many companies build a fantastic website, but don’t plan how they’re going to get prospective customers to view it! MC2 can develop an on-going search engine strategy for clients, to assist in developing an effective internet presence and generating more traffic to the website.
Email Marketing - Email newsletters and E-zines are an effective way to keep in contact with existing or new clients. However the newly introduced regulations on ‘spam’ email has made this somewhat of a minefield. MC2 can help you develop an effective and ongoing email marketing strategy and whilst ensuring you stay within the law!
Multimedia Development - As new media specialists, MC2 believing strongly in raising awareness of multimedia development amongst the business community.
