Decus Communications: About Us - Marketing, media, public relations

Decus Communications (Decus: latin – honesty, integrity, grace) was born out of the frustration we heard about and experienced in working with public relations and marketing agencies – too much overhead, nonsensical billing and 50-thousand-foot advice that didn’t include actually doing the work.

Decus Communications prides itself in its ability to bring clients an integrated communications approach involving marketing, public, media, research, polling and government relations. We also work with an overriding sense of your sales and business development needs and it’s the impetus to everything we do. If you’re not growing or developing new contacts, prospects and customer bases – we know we’re not helping you..

At Decus we believe in three things:
(actually, we believe in a lot, but these three stand out)

We offer value without making you pay for our building, our excess of personnel to make us look “bigger,” our recreational room, pool tables, fancy digs, expense accounts and martini bar. (Okay, we don’t really have any of those, but we know agencies who build it into their hourly “fees.”). We also won’t be wining and dining you, because well – believe it or not, we don’t have the time – we’re too busy working.

We do the work with the goal of getting results. Period. We don’t leave you holding the plan and walk away, nor do we bill you for work that doesn’t actually get done.

We believe in giving back. We will donate 5% of our fees in our clients’ name to the non-profit or charity of their choice. Our non-profit clients get 10% donated right back to their own organizations. We feel pretty fortunate (and yea, very blessed) to be doing what we love and realize there are many who are struggling or need a leg up. Our clients tend to have the same mindset.

To make all this work, Decus employs professionals with on-the-ground experience. Our people have spent years in the media trenches, working in management, journalistic and promotions roles in radio, print and television. We’ve been on the other side and know what the media is looking for and we work to shape the messages that not only make sense on paper, but actually get seen by more than the people writing the press releases.

We also have experience in the boardroom and know the pressures you face every day with customers, investors and shareholders. In short – our people have not jumped from agency to agency, but have real world experience that adds to the expertise your company already possesses.

Decus. Media. Marketing. Public Relations.
