About Techni-Source

Personnel, engineering, and consulting firm Technisource provides a broad range of information technology (IT) staffers and services from some 55 offices and five delivery centers throughout the US.

The Challenge

Techisource approached PRIME|PR to help build brand awareness of the company and turn around an ineffective internal PR/marketing team. PRIME|PR again employed a multi-tier media campaign to highlight the business problem and showcase how Technisource was uniquely positioned to solve IT skills gaps via their contingent labor model. Since media are not interested in covering the services of a staffing agency, PRIME|PR developed a series of surveys to share with media and highlight the thought leadership nature of the company. We also worked with the company’s clients (IT workers) to develop strong case studies that demonstrated the value of working with Technisource through personal and emotional narratives.

PRIME|PR Strategy

PrimeTech Strategy will populate here…

Video Creation

Content is king and video is the best medium to tell your story. We design content and websites only after messaging is completed so that every aspect of the site tells the right message at the right time.

Media Relations

Earned media is the main goal of a strategic PR campaign. At the heart of our business are the relationships we’ve built with editors and reporters across the past 20 years. We call, they listen.

Content Marketing

Marketing without lead generation is comedy, while sales without lead generation is tragedy. We have spent the last twenty years building a system that gets you in the door with decision makers. We utilize our own CRM system called The Marketing Insider that also has full marketing automation capabilities – all free to PRIME | PR clients.

 

Analyst Relations

Analysts are the extreme experts in their specific field and your customers typically spend $45,000+ each year just to get access to their unique insights. These are a group of influencers at the top of the sales influence value chain and every company should be engaging with them.

Results

After engaging with PRIME|PR, Technisource coverage grew by 300% and was viewed as the go-to source for IT-based labor market discussions by both media and economists. Recurring features in top IT publications and national business (Forbes, Fortune, The Wall Street Journal) publications exploded the company’s valuation – ending up with a purchase by rival Randstad for an estimated 3x the value pre-engagement.

Microstaq

Microstaq, a developer of the world’s most advanced silicon MEMS-based fluid control technology, created a completely new technology that offered significant energy savings for the HVAC industry by replacing 100-year-old solenoid technology with MEMS devices.While the technology was a true revolution, the HVAC space is a limited market dominated by a few top manufacturers. The Microstaq sales teams worked hard to create partnerships with these manufacturers but failed at every attempt. The manufacturers cared less about the energy savings and more about the cost of implementation of new technology – bottom line, the MEMS devices were considered too expensive.
