A History Of Successful Marketing

2004 - Building A Business

Bristlecone Web™ was founded in 2004 with one simple idea. The idea was that we can do it better. Little did we know at the time that we were entering one of the most fiercely competitive markets on the planet; but by remaining true to that one original idea, we continue to grow, learn, and succeed every day.

2005 - Earning Our First Successes

By 2005, many of the projects we initiated were finding incredible success. Our early recognition of the importance of SEO, user behavior analysis / analytics, and effective advertising allowed us to deliver tremendous gains for our clients. In fact many clients found their business doubling, tripling, and even decupling! That's a 10X increase (and don't feel bad we had to look that word up too).

2006 - Overcoming Challenges

As anyone who has entered a business venture knows, not every effort is a slam dunk. 2006 taught us many of the lessons that have helped us survive whether the country is in a recession or not. Because of the lessons learned here, our company remains a completely debt free entity. This commitment to remain debt free allows us to continue to work toward a long term vision rather than be subjected to short term market fluctiations. 2006 also opened our eyes to some of the darker sides of business. Suffice it to say that while there are many honest business owners, there are also those looking to to abuse those honest businesses for their own profit. For this reason we continue to be highly selective with the organizations we choose to accept as clients.

2007 - New Doors Opening

While continuing with our proven effective strategies and learning from our experience, it was time to grow our capabilities. We know that the web is ever-changing and thus we must learn to continually change ourselves. Investing heavily back into our company, we researched new and innovative ways to provide better service to our clients. We attended (an still attend) conferences, meetings, seminars, and other professional resources to ensure that we continue to have the pulse of the market. In our ever strong mission to embody the Bristlecone Pine's ability to withstand any environmental conditions we literally traveled across the globe seeking new opportunities and learning from others' experiences.

2008 - Continuing To Thrive

Despite being a relatively young company, our rock-solid history of results was beginning to land us new, bigger clients. We found only two things change on bigger projects: 1) how many zeros we add to the bottom line, and 2) how much those zeros put smiles on everyone's faces. Local governments, state government programs, universities, and even fortune 500 companies have found Bristlecone Web™ and continue with us today.

2009 - No Recession Here

If it wasn't for the news, we would have never known the economy was having such a downturn. We, and our clients, continue to grow our businesses despite the global recession. In fact, 2009 is already set to be a record year for us; not only in total sales, but in percentage growth. 2009 also marks formation of an important partnership with Vanguard Communications. Founded in 1994, Vanguard Communications is an integrated marketing communications and technology company rooted in classical advertising, branding and public relations. Through this partnership we now provide a complete marketing suite for our clients: from bleeding edge web technologies, to classic PR. Despite gloomy forecasts on the economy, our outlook remains truly bright.
