KCOMM | Unifying Markets and Mediums with your Message
Welcome to our March newsletter
Welcome,

A common thread running through this month's newsletter is addressing issues that affect people's lives every day. We are proud to be involved with organizations that are striving to make a difference. For example, an important new client is leading the way toward transforming high school education in America. A current client is helping individuals and families gain financial stability. And the Internet Marketing Association recently hosted its first advocacy visit to Washington, DC.

I am also very pleased to be serving as chairman and founder of the Chapman50, a group of Chapman University alumni and community leaders created to help provide long-term guidance for the school. We encourage you to get involved wherever your passion lies and help move the needle on issues that you care about.

Sincerely,

Sinan Kanatsiz
Chief Executive Officer

New KCOMM Client Leads Online Learning Innovation
Goal Is Education Transformation

KCOMM is very pleased to welcome an exciting new client that is leading the way toward a transformation in American education via online learning. The organization operates two very innovative and complementary entities.

Primavera Online High School serves some 5,500 full-time students in Arizona seeking an alternative, Internet-based approach to the traditional school environment, including those who want to accelerate their education, pursue professional careers that require flexible schedules, are geographically distant from traditional schools, or prefer learning from the security of their own homes.

FlipSwitch is an integrated online education system available to school districts nationwide interested in adding an online curriculum. It comprises a student information system, a parent-student portal, a learning management system and an online curriculum of more than 125 courses to give administrators, teachers, students and parents the ability to easily access, navigate and manage their daily activities.

KCOMM Offers Online Surveys To Help Clients Stay on Target
Complete Capabilities Available

Surveys have always been a very important tool for marketers. Gathering actionable information from a wide range of audiences provides a foundation for successful audience targeting, messaging, event development, market research and more.

Online surveys offer several distinct advantages compared to printed surveys. Perhaps the most significant is timeliness. A survey following a physical event or online event such as a webinar can be delivered to participants very quickly while the experience is still top of mind. And the results are literally received instantaneously. In addition, online survey mechanisms include built-in data tallying and compilation functions, so reporting can be generated and analyzed without delay.

KCOMM offers complete online survey capabilities from questionnaire development and distribution to data gathering and analysis. We can help make sure your marketing efforts are on target.
