Business Development Services Inc. <br /> <br />"BDS--Prospeets Unlimited" Marketing Services <br /> <br />Marketing involves the process of matching the benefits of a pro- <br />duct with the needs of a prospective purchaser. In terms of eco- <br />nomic development, the product is a conununity or county and the <br />purchaser is a prospective business that is either expanding or <br />relocating. In order to successfully market an area, BDS designs <br />a strategy for identifying the prospects it wishes to attract to <br />an area by: <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />Preparing a realistic assessment of industries and businesses <br />offering the greatest potential for locating in the community <br />or county; <br /> <br />Evaluating certain regions or areas for targeting efforts; <br /> <br />Developing a marketing strategy for attracting and identifying <br />certain firms; and <br /> <br />Most importantly, we actively contact companies on behalf of <br />communities. We have a track record with proven results. <br /> <br />Many comanunities attempt to complete the job of prospecting through <br />volunteer efforts. Generally, these types of efforts fail due to a <br />lack of consistency of approach and the follow up necessary to pro- <br />duce results. Business recruitment requires a professional staff <br />experienced in industrial and commercial development who can answer <br />the questions and needs of a business owner considering expansion. <br /> <br />The~ staff of BDS can represent you 'and your community by making <br />regular contacts with expanding industry on your behalf. We can <br />show you how to reduce the ever increasing costs of additional <br />staff while sti!l ~~ng your succes~ rate for'locating-active <br />prospects. By generating quality 'leads and qualifying them before <br />handing the names of companies over to your prospect team, we <br />decrease the expensive "cold call" process and give you more time <br />to concentrate on the "hottest" prospects available. <br /> <br />We at BDS have an absolute com~.itment to clien~ satisfaction, pro- <br />viding special attention to quality and detail. We understand <br />the meaning of professionalism and high work standards and know how <br />to operate within time/budget constraints.
