Introduction The Protegis brand isn’t just a logo, and it is more than colors, advertising and taglines. It’s a symbol of the way we do or business. The name stands for professional, proactive, protection for a world in need of a more secure environment and it comes with our promise of exceptional branded products and services.

The brand is the overall perception of our product and service o�erings by all audiences and the promise of what Protegis o�ers to the world.

To continually strengthen the Protegis brand, we must ensure that the perception is positive and that the promises Protegis makes are ful�lled as we continue to grow and increase our product and service o�erings.

We must communicate our successes to the world through a uni�ed identity. The Protegis brand must be supported by the actions and words of everyone who represent Protegis.

The marketing department promotes your business and drives sales of its products or services. It provides the necessary research to identify your target customers and other audiences.

Connecting Customers to ProductsThe marketing department implements customer relationship management functions to track and predict what customers want in their products. It connects the customer to the product with hard data as well as emotional, qualitative information that can help product designers di�erentiate your products from those of a competitor. This information also helps marketing promotions by highlighting these di�erences in marketing materials.

Promotions and PRThe marketing department will carry out promotional strategies for products and services, and we may also incorporate promo-tional activities, such as public relations, for the business as a whole. The promotions sta� assists the sales force with sales promotions; o�ers public relations support for product launches, trade shows and other events. Promotion activities range from creating awareness of a product to persuading customers to try and then buy the product.

New Business DevelopmentThe marketing department works closely with sales in generat-ing new business. Employees entice prospects to engage with your company in some way, even if it’s just visiting the website, and then uses incentives to get customers to continue thinking about the product so that the sales team can convince them to buy the product.

We are here for you, and we want to increase your presseance in your area!
