Marketing & Brand Management

Being creative and thinking out-of-the-box is extremely important in marketing. We deliver the goods all day long, but we like to rationalize our creativity with real, measurable research; our mantra is facts and figures win the day.

Do you have an in-house marketing director, a full department, or maybe no dedicated marketing person at all? Not to worry, HCP Associates has a long history of marketing support for all three scenarios. And for many of our long-term clients, we serve as their dedicated marketing department and support daily tasks that cover an array of A to Z skills and tactics.

Perhaps you already have a strategic plan in place and don’t need our research services; that’s ok too. No matter what service you engage HCP Associates for, we take pride in always delivering enhanced marketing services infused with unique business consulting levels.

Once a clearly defined strategy is in place, HCP Associates account management, marketing, and design teams will work to ensure every step of your marketing plan is efficiently executed. Through every step of the process, we will monitor and report the progress of your plan.
