I view marketing as a grand experiment. There are no long-term solutions to any marketing plan. That's why I continually suggest that all marketing plans should be written in pencil. I formed EndGame Marketing Solutions (EGMS) with four thoughts in mind.

  • Most marketers are not ready for the challenges they are facing.

  • Most marketers fear change.

  • Most marketers don't understand magic. Marketing magic.

  • Most marketers need both analytical and creative support to reach their end games.

 

As an Executive Strategist and chief magician, I will ask the tough questions and challenge everything. Then, I'll assist your team in developing a plan to fill your marketing gaps. When needed, I'll engage our teaming partners to use their marketing powers. Otherwise, we'll use your resources.

Having an Economics and Political Science degree from the University of Michigan and an MBA in Marketing and Marketing Research from DePaul University pales the 45+ years of sales and marketing experience I have molded into EGMS. That's old news. The problem with looking back is you can't see what's ahead. EGMS is focused on your future.

Beware of agencies that claim they can do it all. Maybe they can, but you'll be paying for a lot of overhead that may not be needed to grow your business. I believe in teaming partners that bring specific expertise to address your marketing gaps, with a focus on Relationship Marketing and Loyalty Marketing strategies.

 

You get best-in-breed service at the best possible cost.

Fuzzy Duck

Eddie Ulrich and his team of Fuzzy Ducks bring a wide variety of marketing services to the EGMS deliverables - the most valuable being website design from content to execution. But we won't forget the creative energy they add to each assignment, because what we say is just as important as how we say it.
