Lake Oswego, Ore. – In a time of economic uncertainty and financial turbulence, a Lake Oswego based marketing agency has risen to the challenge. Northwest Phoenix specializes in a new form of advertising called search engine marketing (SEM). By working with popular search engines like Google and Yahoo, SEM is an effective, affordable, and fast way for companies to increase their sales and retain customers.

“In this economy, business owners need to be smart with their marketing budget,” says Dyer Vest, owner of Northwest Phoenix. “When people are interested in a particular product or service, they use the internet to find it. SEM is an effective way to drive these people to your website.”

In addition to SEM, Northwest Phoenix also offers promotional services including public relations, event planning, and media purchasing. Unlike other agencies, all of these services are delivered “a la carte,” which means clients only pay for what they need.

“Traditional marketing firms will present their clients with convoluted marketing plans that lump all their services together,” says Vest. “We always operate on a per-project basis without any contracts. Our clients will never receive any billable surprises which makes them extremely happy.”
