We know the issues and speak plain language. We listen.
Our work is award-winning and we bring a customer-focused approach to deliver
results.
Au197 creates and develops significant innovations, mostly in the Health, fitness and Sports markets. Specifically, we
focus on creating and managing transformational technologies for tomorrow's
functions, products and business models from ideas through market entry.
Our end goal is to see these opportunities commercialized primarily by selling
or licensing them to global companies, and when necessary, commercializing
them ourselves.
We started managing web projects in 1996-- on the client side.
Before we started working on web projects, we cut our teeth working at
bricks-and-mortar companies. We've managed databases and conducted information
analysis for Fortune 500 companies like Merrill
Lynch. We've built sales
teams and real "old-economy" businesses. We're experienced at
satisfying demanding customers like DIRECTV, GMAC, Schering-Plough Healthcare
Products Inc. and Lockheed Martin, which means we grasp client issues and
develop solutions that can be executed effectively-- because we know what
it's like to be on the client side.
Our interdisciplinary project teams include professionals in strategy,
content development, SEO, design, technology and sales training.
Development is done in-house to ensure quality, and strategic alliances
with trusted resources complement our skillsets. Our staff is cross-trained
to provide backup and continuity on each project over the long
term.
