Norwalk, CT based marketing agency reflects on 2010 as a year of growth and evolution in strategic positioning

Norwalk, CT (December 20, 2010) – This year began with a promising outlook and has proved to be uplifting for JumarMarketing, LLC, a full-service marketing company specializing in marketing strategies, branding, web design and development, social media and search engine marketing, and public relations. The company, located in Norwalk, CT, ends the year with its feet on the ground after elevating its position in the marketing services industry and achieving double digit growth within the last 12 months.

Jumar’s ascent began with the decision to evolve from the name JumarDirect, LLC to its current JumarMarketing, LLC in February, a change that better reflected its service offering and reach to current and potential clients. This development was also accompanied by a re-branded website that showcased its firm grasp on current technologies and marketing tools, such as Twitter and Blogs, and allowed a forum for real-time client interaction and feedback.

The year was also highlighted by numerous public speaking engagements on a variety of marketing topics, the latest of which was held at the Wilton Library in Wilton, CT, on December 7, 2010. Entitled “Connecting with Your Customers: Online Marketing Strategies,” the session was geared toward local small business owners looking to strengthen their interaction with new and potential customers and ultimately boost business via the latest online technologies. The workshop, following suit with others presented throughout 2010, received accolades from attendees and also generated buzz about Jumar and the talent it possesses within.

“2010 has been a defining year for Jumar. We evolved our services to better correlate with the marketing needs of current and potential clients, and, in turn, were able to provide the strategic guidance for which many had been looking,” stated Judi Virgulak, President and Founder of JumarMarketing, LLC. Virgulak continued, “We’ve accomplished key milestones this year and have built mutually gratifying relationships with many new businesses. Looking back, I am proud of our achievements and am looking forward to elevating Jumar even higher in 2011.”

Jumar’s expanded service offerings, commitment to excellence and community exposure has been an effective combination, as its client list has expanded this year in both volume and range of industries. The ability to cater to each client’s specific situation, understand the uniqueness of the business, and deliver on the client’s expectation is what highlights Jumar as a progressive agency model.

“As new clients of Jumar this year, we at Turning Point Estate Services, LLC were pleased to see how quickly they focused in on what we do, and what was needed to convey that vision to the public at large,” stated Peter Schattenfield, Managing Partner. He continued, “Jumar's team approach ensured a wellspring of fresh ideas and an enthusiastic approach to providing solutions to Turning Point's specific needs. We look forward to continuing to partner with them in our marketing and public relations campaign in the coming year.”

A Dash of Kindness and Tablespoon of Hope: The Perfect Recipe for Many This Holiday Season

Friday, December 3rd, 2010

The day was cold, the wind blustery. But on Saturday, November 20th, the hearts of hundreds of were warmed by the act of giving. Volunteers—the JumarMarketing, LLC team included—of all ages came to lift, haul, sort, organize, and drive in support of the 2010 CT Basket Brigade. At the United Healthcare warehouse in Trumbull, folks assembled baskets filled with all the ingredients for the perfect Thanksgiving meal. There was also a toy or two for children who may otherwise not experience the joy of the season. Many of these same volunteers also personally brought the items to previously identified families in need. Through a year of planning, plentiful donations, and the generosity of participants, this year’s CT Basket Brigade fed 600+ families.

The CT Basket Brigade’s annual event represents the hope and the prospect of giving to those in need. Since 1994, on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, volunteers have been giving baskets filled with food and toys to families in need.
Thanks to the generous support from the community, the CT Basket Brigade has been able to expand its reach: all totaled,
including this year, it has delivered over 56 tons of food!

We at Jumar experienced such joy from partaking in this event, and, judging by the words and actions of our fellow volunteers that day,
we know others were moved as well. But don’t let us speak for you. If you were at the 2010 CT Basket Brigade and have stories, photos,
or videos to share, please visit the Facebook page. You may also email them directly to us at 2010 CT Basket Brigade stories and we'll be
happy to post them for you.

And, believe it or not, we're already planning for next year! Please save the date - Saturday, November 19, 2011, for our next 'Magic Moment'.

"One small act of generosity on the part of one caring person can transform the lives of hundreds."

Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, for your amazing support! Please visit www.ctbasketbrigade.org.
