Ad Ventures, Inc., a leading national directional marketing advertising agency based in Roswell, is doing something few businesses can claim in 2009 - expanding their business solutions, adding clients and hiring staff.

Founded in 1992, Ad Ventures offers the most comprehensive suite of local search advertising solutions in the industry. Marketing services available include Yellow Pages, SEM, email marketing, mobile marketing, iPhone applications, website development and online video.

In 2009, Ad Ventures' staff has grown by 15% and its client billings are on track to grow by nearly 50%. Ad Ventures president David Cogdell attributes this success to the company's driving business philosophy: Provide maximum value for the client's investment and outstanding customer service.

"Particularly during a down economy, clients demand measured value for their ad dollars," explained Cogdell. "Other agencies are cutting their most important resource - their people. In doing so, they are sacrificing client relationships, overall quality and internal employee morale. Those ingredients are critical to success in any organization and especially critical to client satisfaction."

With good reason, Ad Ventures' projections for 2009 is positive. They plan to expand their marketing service portfolio to include direct response and affiliate marketing. To learn more about Ad Ventures, visit www.adventuresinc.net.
