Jivaldi Launches ”StormPilot” Marketing Blog

Leading Interactive Marketing Agency Creates Forum for Professionals to Share Information, Ideas and Idiosyncrasies

Recognizing an industry-wide need, Jivaldi, a full-service interactive agency (http://www.jivaldi.com), has launched StormPilot.us — a lively marketing blog (http://www.stormpilot.us/) through which marketing professionals can share information, ideas and experiences within this competitive industry.

The blog features fearless leader Storm Pilot (a.k.a. “Defender of Designers, Developers and Marketers”), who deftly educates, entertains and inspires other professionals with tales from the field. While StormPilot’s initial focus is on “dealing with customers,” its goal is to evolve into a frequented destination for both consultants and their clients.

Says Brendan Coots, Creative Director at SplitVision Digital, a leading bay area video production (http://www.splitvisiondigital.com/video_production.asp) company: “Mastery of client relations is a requirement for success in media production. StormPilot isn’t just a hilarious take on our industry; it is an insightful primer for anyone navigating the rough seas of media production management.”

“The growing blogger population across the marketing industry will help decide StormPilot’s eventual direction,” says Jim Ivaldi, principal of Jivaldi. “We’ve started with client relationships because interactive agencies, and our services, are often misunderstood. This is our opportunity to tell some of our stories in a tongue-in-cheek sort of way.”

Jivaldi offers a host of integrated marketing services that includes web design and development, identity and print design, in addition to more focused efforts involving sports marketing, political marketing, search engine optimization, email marketing and more. Jivaldi believes its diversified client portfolio represents what it takes to successfully market products and services in today’s ultra-competitive, fast-paced environment.

“The online/interactive industry is fast-moving, and agencies have to adapt very quickly to stay on top of this ever-changing arena,” says Ivaldi. “Through StormPilot, we can reach out to online consultants and bring together a community of industry stakeholders who can share ideas and refine and stabilize our business processes.”

Another intangible but major StormPilot benefit: “Sometimes you just need to vent your frustration among peers who share the same concerns. StormPilot’s the perfect place to do that, and maybe come away with a smile,” says Faruk Hadzic, designer at Jivaldi.

StormPilot’s current blog entries cover issues typically encountered by consultants, including cost estimation, common hurdles and other project-related topics. In the near future, the blog will also include client-focused articles that will educate those companies seeking online services, helping them to better prepare for their marketing related projects.
