RAINBOW TECHNOLOGIES
 "Their
creativity is great to see"
'We knew we had a very tight budget for all the things we needed
to do, yet ECM said: "Just give us a budget and we will work to
that." And they did.
Their creativity is great to see, and what a pleasure it is to work
with a team that are always responsive and enthusiastic.
ECM's work with Sentinel has resulted in success way beyond our
expectations.'

Rainbow Technologies
ECM's challenge was very simple. How to create a campaign to meet
sales targets in the UK, France and Germany for this market leading
software security brand, on a very tight budget?
Based on research, ECM prepared the creative concepts and messages
to communicate Rainbow's key messages in a series of impactful emails
and a simple but effective direct mail piece all translated for each
country.
THE RESULT?
Sales figures are of course confidential but suffice to say that
Rainbow Technologies have enjoyed the sales quarter.

ROLAND DIGITAL GROUP
 "The
best marketing agency I have ever worked with."
JERRY DAVIES
Divisional Managing Director
Roland Digital Group
ECM's objective was to create an overall Roland DG brand for all
product divisions and create lead generation for the new SOLJET SC-500
wide format solvent inkjet printer to support the dealer channel
Our strategy was to create a new brand styling to include optimising
the promotion of European Minardi F1x2 sponsorship, develop an integrated
direct marketing campaign to supply high quality leads to the dealer
channel and coordinate all communications to 'sing from the same hymn
sheet.'
THE RESULT?
- More than 50 SolJets sold as a direct result of the SIGN UK show
promotion (target was 6)
- Another 40 high grade enquiries passed to dealers
- 240 out of 1000 targets entered the Minardi competition; one
very lucky prospective customer won a day out with Minardi F1 x2 including
a 200mph drive with their F1 team driver!

INTEL LANDESK
 Big
trade shows can still attract big prospects- if promoted effectively.
ECM were asked to put together a new campaign to attract the attention
of UK-based Senior IT Executives in selected markets to Intel's stand
at the Networks Telecom Show 2001 in the Birmingham NEC.
THE RESULT?
Three times as many people visited the stand as last year, nearly
500 people registered to receive further information and website
use for the Intel LANDesk Management Suite site doubled overnight
and has remained high.

IBASE - UNLOCKING THE NATIONAL HERITAGE
 ECM’s
challenge was to create an effective lead-generation program for the
iBase digital asset management software. A direct mail campaign and
supporting range of marketing tools were developed – all on a very tight
budget and in a short space of time.
THE RESULT?
The telemarketing follow-up team reported a massive 38% positive
response on requests for appointments and further information from the
first batch.
The following week at the Museums Association Show, the iBase Stand
was busy with over 70 new registered prospects talking face-to-face
with the sales team. In all, over 300 high quality leads were generated
from the first phase of the campaign – an outstanding overall positive
response rate of 38% of the targeted database.

are lots of design agencies in the market but very few actually take
the time to understand our requirements. Martin Morrissey and ECM have

design and sales support for several years, with the 'full service'

ECM also provides us with in-depth expertise in targeting our markets

 "We
were immediately impressed with ECM's willingness to help and constant
flow of advice. We provided a very open brief and ECM quickly responded
with a selection of innovative and eye-catching marketing and creative
solutions which clearly reflected our company image and objectives.
ECM clearly portrayed the benefits of each and from start to finish
of the project, we have found them to be open, reliable and extremely
flexible. Consequently, I will have no concerns about working with ECM
again in the future."

HARP VISUAL COMMUNICATIONS
 "Faced
with the challenge of only having a fraction of the marketing budget
of our competitors, we regard the branding and marketing consultancy
from ECM as fundamental cornerstones in the rapid growth of our company.
For example, the first presentation using the new image resulted in
one of our biggest ever orders.
We have now not only achieved our primary objective of establishing
credibility in the market; we are now also the largest installers of
display wall systems in the UK.
ECM has provided a long-term partnership based on the highest standards
of professionalism and quality."

IMATION UK
 "With
the rapid growth in the SOHO market, it has been critical for Imation
to stand out as a prominent brand in the retail channel, and win the
all-important shelf space war. Combining the experience and expertise
of ECM with the opportunities offered by our sponsorship of the Jordan
Grand Prix Formula One Team has enabled us to achieve our goals faster
than we could have hoped - by the end of 2000 I anticipate that the
Imation range of products will be featured in 80% of the retail outlets
originally targeted."

GRETAG PROFESSIONAL IMAGING
 "When
we realised that sooner than expected, we would have our new, exciting
high speed photographic laser printer ready in time for one of our major
international trade shows - Photokina - we knew we had to act fast.
Not missing the opportunity that the show had to offer was so important
to the product launch.
That's when we called upon ECM's experienced network to save time
and act as an extension to our Marketing Department.
We knew our target audience from UK, Germany and France but needed
to make sure those people were aware of our product, had complete information
and a further incentive to put us on their viewing list at the show.
ECM achieved this with an integrated program of activities precisely
suited to the limited time we had before the show.
So with sales and interest almost 300% above target, we were extremely
happy with the results and it has given us a great head start for our
2000/1 sales targets."

EUROTEL TELECOM
 Eurotel
Telecom are a market leader in manufacturing high quality intelligent
routing equipment for the Italian and Scandinavian Telecommunications
industries.
ECM's task was to launch Eurotel in Spain by providing a sales lead
generation solution to a very tightly focused target market including
an innovative and eye-catching brand image - all to a demanding schedule
and tight budget.
ECM's stunning imagery on exhibition, literature and stationery
has broken new ground by providing a forward thinking company with a
forward thinking brand identity. So much so that Eurotel achieved it's
target for the Spanish launch and now plans to re-use the exhibition
equipment produced by ECM to launch the company throughout the rest
of Europe.
