San Diego Firm Launches Unique Marketing Platform

San Diego, CA (Vocus) July 30, 2009 — San Diego marketing expert Mike Harris announced today that his management consulting firm has launched a marketing platform that combines public relations, social media marketing and internet marketing.

“Most companies are not aware of how dramatically marketing costs have dropped in the past three years,” Harris said. “Our new platform allows smart companies to bid adieu to their current labor intensive marketing, including PR and SEO agencies, and turn a mid-level marketer into a dynamic one-person marketing department for usually no more than $2,500 per month”. This is typically less than most companies pay for cobbling together various vendors and managing them, he added.

Harris also said that it’s no longer a question of choosing between advertising, public relations and social media marketing since all three are rapidly merging into a single platform. “We aggregate various marketing technologies and wrap a coaching and consulting package around them that saves significant labor costs and months of education and ramp up time.”

Harris said he launched the new service initially for small to mid-tier businesses including manufacturing, services, biotech, IT and professional offices like medicine and law.
