0
0

V180 Media helps small businesses and nonprofit organizations share their stories to enhance business and work towards their respective missions.

For our introduction to the Greater Omaha Chamber, we would like to offer new clients a 10% discount on all video and websites until June 12, 2012! Call Joe Frost (402)960-4969 or Jaime Bordelon today at (850)-712-4084 and mention that you saw us here on the Greater Omaha Chamber website, and we will honor you with a discount and introduce you to a great opportunity!

Based on our experiences working with entrepreneurs and nonprofits, we know there is a strong need to justify ROI for any advertising or marketing expense. Their personal stories are full of passion, ambition, energy, drive and determination. These stories fuel each organization at its core, differentiate each from competitors, and ultimately shape a company's or nonprofit's brand, marketing and advertising; values, vision and mission.

That being said, rarely do any entrepreneurs or nonprofits that we encounter even know how (or choose) to do this for Traditional Media (TV, radio, and print advertising) let alone New Media.

We have identified some fundamental areas essential to getting the proper New Media Reactions for your business ROI. We look forward to working with you! www.v180media.com
