Corporate Archivist/Historian Service
Your company is unique. And your company history is a valuable differentiator. "Telling your story" can be done in many ways and on different levels, allowing you to link past, present and future. Understanding and embracing your roots can help inform future business growth as well as provide a strong cultural base.
Our role is to collect, present and preserve your organization history and "corporate memory". Documenting your legacy may be solely tied to an anniversary celebration, and it may drive business strategy, branding, strategic positioning and marketing initiatives.
Our services include:
Company history: written and oral records, preservation of archival materials;
Organization timeline: visual representations of company highlights/milestones;
Anniversary celebrations: special events, documentary and promotional items;
Corporate identity: brand refinement, logo updates;
Strategic planning: marketing plan and tactics tied to historical attributes;
Public relations: press releases, announcements, profiles, interviews, special-interest features.
