Global Multi Media Marketing

Mobile Ecommerce Business Solutions
BuyABizness is an ecomm marketing application that combines the best elements of an ebay-style digital marketplace with a
worldwide digital and traditional underlying strategic marketing program reaching millions of potential buyers. Market: People Wanting
To Buy Or Sell A Small or Medium Business. Key Features: Massive emerging market. Global reach. Multiple revenue streams. Technology
built and proven. Baby boom driven.

Interactive Digital/Traditional Direct Response Packages
One of the most important keys to success in marketing is to create a campaign that uses "involvement devices" to engage the individual
target prospect. There is a real art form to doing this effectively. In the example shown here created for a rapidly-emerging New York
property marketing group, an interactive direct mail package was developed that had a lot of "moving parts" - each of which played off
the other parts in an interesting and unified fashion to coalesce and repeat the key marketing messages. By creating these "moving parts"
the recipient tends to find the package very involving and in the course of interacting with it the marketing message is conveyed. The
campaign shown here also included a variety of online elements including a direct response video streaming from the client site in a high-
def dvd-quality version. In creating a campaign like this, one of the most important elements is the "voice" you create. This is all about the
writing - and truly great writing is becoming increasingly rare. It has to be real and it has to communicate directly to the prospect as if they
were sitting across the kitchen table having a conversation with you - just as these words are talking to you now. If you can do that - the
results you generate will be exponentially ahead of any of your competitors.

Television & Online Media Design & Production
Broadcast-on-demand television is becoming an increasingly essential part of every company's marketing arsenal. If it isn't yet for your company
- it should be. This is why The Symons Group has been creating online and 'narrowcasting' television on an ongoing basis for years now. For
example, it created InvestorWorld TV - one of the first online tv channels in the history of the internet - long before Bloomberg or many similar
competitors. It was created based on Kim Symons's early belief that there would be a massive migration of mainstream tv viewers from
traditional broadcast to user-centric special interest online channels. That migration is now occurring in major numbers and is expected to
continue to grow exponentially. As a result, creating broadcast production vehicles form an integral part of overall marketing capabilities.

Online Social Networks: The Cocktail Club
Kim invented what may have been the first online community and social network in the history of the internet – years before
facebook, myspace and similar competitors were invented. It was a local and worldwide social community designed for the 35+
urban upscale professional. It was groundbreaking in its inception and quickly gained viral growth traction with very high user
involvement. The Cocktail Club established new paradigms in the field of online communication and member interaction.

Online Communities: Web Community Builder©
Based on Kim’s extensive experience in building online social networks and communities, he created Web Community Builder© a unique
service designed to enable groups or organizations of any size to have their own online community and become their own facebook™ or
myspace™ - but at a fraction of the cost and in a fraction of the time. It is designed to meet the burgeoning demand for the creation of
“private label” Online Communities and social & professional networks. It is expected this will revolutionize the way certain organizations
conduct their business and proved to be a prescient leader in this game-changing internet space.

Mobile & Smartphone Applications

Mobile & Smartphone Apps: Development & Marketing
With 95% of the North American public now owning
mobile smartphones, the transition to mobile platforms
is an issue that all companies and organizations need
to address. But doing that is tremendously complex.
Not only is there the complexity of converting existing
web applications such as traditional websites to mobile
platforms but there is also the enormous challenge of
how you break through the clutter of hundreds of
thousands of mobile apps and the more than one
trillion url's now in existance.
As an Authorized Developer for apple, Blackberry and Google/droid whose most recent release is a social relationship app called The
Compatometer Instant Compatibility Calculator we have faced these challenges first hand.
The solution we developed was to create a multi channel powerhouse marketing program combining the best aspects of social media
marketing (facebook, twitter, online affiliates, social networking, etc.) to tested-and-proven traditional marketing approaches such as
conducting an ongoing major media relations campaign to such media as The London Sunday Times, New York Times, major U.S. market dailies,
to magazines ranging from Cosmopolitan to Seventeen, to broadcast media such as The Today Show and Oprah, to regional radio drive time
programs.
The reason we take this approach is because most companies and individuals think all they have to do is create a mobile app and the market
will beat a path to its door. Everyone thinks their app is going to go instantly viral which is the Holy Grail of online marketing. But the only way that
is going to happen is if you make it happen. The result is that, most of the many thousands of smartphone apps sit in the apps stores completely
unnoticed and the more than one-trillion url's remain buried in the e-haystack.
This is why we take the approach of combining all marketing channels and activities into a comprehensive continuous global marketing
campaign. It's an enormous amount of work and it takes a huge amount of brainpower and consummate marketing and creative skills - but it is
the only way to go if you want to be successful.
The mobile revolution is one of the most interesting phenomena in the history of communications but there is nothing easy about it and the main
ingredients required of any company hoping to stand a chance of success are patience, persistence and massive marketing knowhow.
