In Focus Brands Acquires Saratoga Springs Direct Marketing Firm
In Focus Brands continues their Upstate NY accelerator buildup with the acquisition of online resources and virtual libraries to add to their growth and market pivot foci. The future of this acquisition will be a conduit for a series of funding programs to startup and small businesses.
Saratoga Springs, NY, May 19, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Robert Manasier of In Focus Brands (IFB) today announced the purchase of local direct marketing firm, Direct Response Marketing Institute (DRMI). This purchase adds to In Focus Brands’ growing presence in the Upstate NY local entrepreneur, startup, incubator and accelerator movements which also strengthens their growing local resources for their future, in-progress Saratoga Springs Accelerator.
Cheryl Paulsen, principal at DRMI, states: “We’re thrilled to join In Focus Brands. Together we will be leveraging the power of an international branding agency with in-the- trenches, small business direct response marketing that will have a positive impact on our Capital Region businesses. The synergy of In Focus Brands and Direct Response Marketing Institute represents an opportunity to support our mutual mission to see more Main Street businesses thrive.”
As IFB builds out their new incubator systems to align and further their acceleration focus, the online resources and libraries for any business, but especially small business, were key to their decision. Robert Manasier has been quoted: “In Focus Brands has always been known as an accelerator but our recent experiences in incubating new/small companies has proven that a new process is needed to progress and to sustain these vital pieces to our economy. IFB is putting a team together to tackle this need, DRMI is a key to our virtual resourcing initiative which will allow us to pivot even faster for our clients. It will also give us additional deployable assets in the field as we strategically and operationally execute.”
Paulsen adds, “After working with Bob and his team on a number of events, projects and consults this year, their ability to incubate and rebrand one of my clients really said that we needed to be part of this firm’s future. The integrity and vision Bob has at In Focus Brands is completely in line with our strategic focus of helping entrepreneurs build profitable, successful and sustainable businesses. We both live that mission and know that small business is the backbone of our economy.”
In keeping with In Focus Brands’ objectives of bringing their “creatively practical” solutions to business owners, ideas, entrepreneurs and leaders, In Focus Brands will be announcing a number of local funding programs through their DRMI buildout plus a number of company-wide moves to enhance and to support the local small business landscape.
