WASHINGTON, April 17, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Face Time Strategy (www.facetimestrategy.com), an integrated marketing communications company based in Washington, D.C., is expanding to all major U.S. markets and recruiting entrepreneurial talent to become EVP/Managing Directors of FaceTime client portal offices nationwide.
FaceTime Strategy has carefully crafted a unique client-centric business model consisting of specialty service groups and local client offices. A FaceTime service group specializes exclusively in specific marketing deliverables such as creative and branding, digital program development and implementation, direct marketing, marketing technology development, and public relations. The service groups are utilized by the local account management professionals overseeing strategic marketing for clients based at any of FaceTime's national client offices. Additional FaceTime groups function within the organization focus on definitive specialties such as Baby Boomer and senior marketing, technology, franchises, non-profits, government, travel and entertainment.
A national hub and spoke network of client offices and service groups allows FaceTime Strategy to offer clients a cost effective one-stop-shop for all their marketing needs with a high level of specialty in each area. To date FaceTime has client offices in Washington, D.C., Dallas, Chicago and Los Angeles, with the goal to be in every major U.S. market. "Over the last five years we have been laying the foundation to roll out and prove our client centric business model," said Todd Mason Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FaceTime Strategy. Mason added, "The client reaction has been outstanding."
Shannon Ingram, EVP/Managing Director of FaceTime Strategy's LA client office, joined the company in February. "I was seeking an entrepreneurial opportunity to join a vibrant, progressive marketing and communications company where I could use my extensive background in technology, health care and travel marketing as well as my knowledge of the Boomer marketplace," said Ingram, author of The Heart Way-A Journey from Corporate to Care. Ingram added, "Todd Mason's vision for FaceTime Strategy matched my own and I am delighted to be working with the FaceTime team."
The company is now rapidly expanding into new markets, seeking entrepreneurial leaders to lead their client portals. "For an innovative marketer, opening a FaceTime Strategy client portal office is the easiest, fastest way to take control of his or her agency career," said Mason. "They receive all the benefits of running their own agency without the infrastructure investment in services development or administration and they focus entirely on servicing accounts providing account strategy, service, ongoing consultancy and business development." The Los Angeles office is the latest new office for FaceTime Strategy. The company expects to add six more markets before the end of 2012.
