Unlike a lot of ad agencies and marketing firms, we’re not motivated by trophies or awards. We’re driven by something way more powerful—our conscience. That’s why everything we do here at Outsource Marketing is inspired by these seven things:
- We practice and evangelize the 7 Keys to Responsible Marketing
- We champion better ways of doing things—for ourselves and for our clients
- We respect our audiences—and our clients’ audiences by:
- Seeking permission
- Telling the truth
- Honoring privacy
- Avoiding clutter
- We respect the environment
- We give back to the community
- We only work with clients who share our values
- And we do it all with absolute integrity
SERIOUSLY FOLKS. DON’T MESS WITH MOTHER NATURE.
Sure, we’re committed to doing the right thing in our marketing. But we’re dedicated to protecting the environment too. For starters, everyone who works at Outsource Marketing signs a Green Pact—that’s our official agreement to run the most environmentally friendly office possible.
You should know we’re also carbon neutral. And okay, we sort of lied about the “not caring about awards” thing. We actually do like ‘em. Especially the awards we’ve won for King County Best Workplaces for Recycling the last three years running.
WE GIVE UNTIL IT HURTS (SO GOOD)
Responsibility isn’t just something we talk about. It’s something we really believe in. That’s why we’re proud to give back—both to our local community and our world, including:
- Doctors without Borders: In 2009, 5% of our profits will go to this organization, which provides urgent medical care to victims of war and disaster
- Kiva: We help third-world entrepreneurs lift themselves out of poverty through Kiva, a charity that provides loans to those in need
- Local charities: Every month, our team spends time at organizations in the Northwest lending a helping hand
