AIM Group Two Retains Sidekick Communications

Feb. 28, 2008 - PRLog -- The small business promotion specialists at AIM Group Two of Apex NC, recently announced that they have retained Holly Springs, NC-based Sidekick Communications to function as their virtual marketing department.  Sidekick will oversee efforts to expand business opportunities and deepen relationships with existing customers, while growing awareness of AIM Group Two’s promotional products through targeted marketing and public relations activities.

Over the past 12 years, AIM Group Two has been focused on small business promotion needs and has built a solid leadership role in its market area.  As a result, the owners had never seen the need for a marketing firm, “but when we learned about Sidekick’s ‘Virtual Marketing Department’ approach, it clicked with us,” said co-owner Barry Sherrill. “We realized that this could help us communicate with clients more consistently, save us time, expand awareness about the breadth of our in-house line of promotional products, and make it possible to grow more profitably.”

“They have established a terrific niche in the promotional products category,” said Sidekick’s Managing Partner, Wendy Harrington. “Small businesses that want quality and a professional edge, but don’t have the need, the space - or maybe even the budget - to buy in large quantities can turn to them for affordable answers.  We realized that their biggest challenge has been educating prospects and customers about the breadth of what they can offer. That’s where we come in.  Our focus will be on developing direct and indirect information campaigns to close the knowledge gap, and to build on their reputation as a problem-solving, helpful brand.”

AIM Group Two is owned and operated by Sherrill and his wife, Ellen.  Their company specializes in customized solutions and small-quantity, high-quality in-house production of personalized promotional products for small business marketing and individual gift-giving. Sherrill is a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association, holds a private pilot’s license, and has his own plane in development.
