A Message From Jonathan Rich: President of The Galen Group

Jonathan Tasker Rich

I am convinced after working 22 years marketing small businesses and professional practices that I am successful because I help my clients succeed.

Oftentimes, marketing is nobody's job or all the pressure to market is on the owner.

Client after client has told me the reason The Galen Group grew their business was because marketing is The Galen Group's job.

I meet with you once a week at the beginning of the marketing program. Meeting with you makes marketing a high priority. I make sure marketing gets done when the strategic plan says it should be done.

Hire The Galen Group and see results from your marketing efforts. And see why results can increase, while at the same time reducing your marketing budget. Intelligent marketing is more effective.

Hire us and see why.

We study your clients and your potential clients in depth. We find the people and groups that use (and should be using) the services of firms like yours.

We study how you're marketing yourself now. (And a firm that presents itself to the public in any way, markets itself in some way. The only question is how well.)

We see what your firm is doing to get business, and to keep it. We learn which types of clients produce the most revenues. Which bring in the most business. Or which provide the steadiest and most secure business. Or which give you the opportunities you consider the most personally interesting and rewarding.

We help you define your goals and your identity. We enhance your strengths. We work with you to save your time, and streamline your work.

And then? We get the attention -- and the business -- of your future clients. By using state-of-the-art techniques to stimulate referrals. Or time-tested methods such as direct mail, newsletters, and brochures. Or through press releases, print, seminars, radio, television, the internet.

Whatever medium you choose we will make sure it is more effective and less costly.

The Galen Group Guarantee

What you do has value. What we do is make the world know it.

Do we get results? Yes. Our clients record tells the story. We've never failed to raise the client count of firms using our marketing program in its complete form for the long-term. We've raised some clients' incomes by literally hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The Rewards of Knowledge.

At the Galen Group, our philosophy is a simple one. We believe in the value of common sense.

It's simple common sense to find out what your clients or patients think about your service. To find out what they want. To find out what they'd like to see you provide, or improve on, or correct.

It's simple common sense to let people who might need your services know that you're there. That you've done the job before. And that you're good.

It's simple common sense to use experienced professionals. Like us. Rather than to use up your time and your money and risk an expensive mistake by doing it yourself, or by going to large, expensive, out-of-town marketing groups that simply don't specialize in the problems you face. Like we do.

That's why our tag line is: Marketing intelligence for intelligent marketing.

Ask For Our Help.
We Know What Works.

Many firms and practices have not used a consultant before. Don't be shy. Lots of larger businesses hire consultants who have specialized knowledge. That's what we have. Call us and find out why.

We can help make your revenues go up, and a reduce the stress of running your firm or practice. And if you'd like to find out how -- at no charge -- well, just pick up the phone right now, or email me.

Sincerely,


Jonathan T. Rich, M.A., M.B.A

Background

JONATHAN RICH, founder and president of The Galen Group attended Hope College in Michigan, where he received Bachelor of Arts degrees in Chemistry and English.

His science education is an advantage in writing about technical subjects for the general public.


He obtained a Masters degree in Journalism from the University of Missouri at Columbia, and an MBA at New York University focusing on marketing and finance. Recently, he begun part-time work on his M.F.A. degree in creative writing at Vermont College.

His communications education allows him to write response-generating marketing projects. And he's a quick learner in writing about new technical fields.


Beginning in 1982, Mr Rich worked for the Meredith Corporation as Circulation Manager for Metropolitan Home magazine for 4 years in direct mail and marketing.

During this time he developed in-depth knowledge of direct mail and the ways response rates can be affected by small changes in design or wording. He brings this awareness of measuring response to every client project.


In late 1986 he left to form his own corporation -- The Galen Group. He discovered a gap in the marketplace for marketing professional services -- traditional marketing firms didn't understand the needs of professionals.

The Galen Group does. Since starting his firm he has had over 200 clients. He has developed an expertise in focus groups and is a believer in only developing marketing messaging after research is completed.


In many cases revenues have increased 30% or more after clients work with The Galen Group. See the client list we've worked for both large and small clients, from Wegmans Corporation and area hospitals to smaller solo private practices.
