LOCKS AND LOADS FOR SUMMER 2011
L.A. Marketing Experts Offer Every Promotional Option Under the Sun
WAR MACHINE MARKETING is ready to arm your business with high-quality, cost-effective promotional products and marketing giveaways.
Branding will always be a battle, but the Los Angeles-based marketing professionals serve as a conduit to a myriad of products that can be tailored to any business's needs and image. The firm delivers affordable and brandable items in bulk including stickers, posters, rubber bracelets, USB drives, skate decks, guitar picks, and more.
In addition, they're a tour marketing specialist providing backdrops and other road necessities for marquee artists across the gamut. Founded by Ro Kohli [Owner/Sales/Business Development] and Shannon Tracy [Director of Production, Partner], the firm officially began in 2007, but it's evolved into a go-to in the entertainment industry and beyond.
The ethos behind WAR MACHINE MARKETING is simple.
Kohli explains, "Our goal is to help people maximize their budgets when it comes to acquiring promotional products for their business. They can come to us for virtually any item that they want branded, and we'll provide it quickly and at a competitive price. We want to save our clients money, time, and stress."
In 2010 alone, WAR MACHINE MARKETING collaborated with a diverse client base ranging from Disney, Square Enix Video Games, and Guitar Center to Universal Music Group, Epitaph Records, and BandMerch. In addition, they provided unique merchandising for Ricky Martin, Sheryl Crow, Queens of the Stone Age, Kid Cudi, Bad Religion, and more. That was only the beginning though.
The company focuses on the client's needs first, and given their 40+ years of collective industry experience. Kohli and Tracy do everything they can to accommodate the companies they work with. "People aren't just numbers," says Kohli, a marketing veteran in the record biz. "When you call us, you actually get the people who own the company. No matter what the situation is, we get the job done, and we're always available for our clients."
WAR MACHINE MARKETING has long-standing relationships with the actual manufacturers of all these items, ensuring the best price due to their repeat business. In addition, most items will have a very swift turnaround process.
Kohli goes on, "We make sure everything is timely. Anything from download cards to bottles of water can be branded. It's a matter of what your audience is going to use multiple times. We try to help people come up with practical types of items that people are going to use."
Kohli and Tracy have that perspective because they've actually done this, and the company is built off an understanding of the customer's experience. "We come from both sides," Kohli declares. "I was on the promo side actually ordering these items for record labels, and Shannon was actually making them. Whether you’re Sony or a brand new band, everybody has a budget that they have to work within. We simply want to help people get the best deal and not get ripped off."
