Southern Oregon Business Owner Featured on Ideacafe
Southern Oregon business owner, Tina Janke of TJ Consults, Inc., is featured on the front page of International Resource site Ideacafe.com, a Small,Home Business or Personal gathering place offering serious insights with a fun approach created by author, Francie Ward.
When asked by Ideacafe, "How do you use Idea Cafe to help your biz?" Janke responded, "Idea Cafe keeps my mind creative. I visit CyberSchmooz often and offer free advice. I do specific searches for those asking particular questions." Janke's profile can be viewed at
http://www.businessownersideacafe.com/
Janke is a marketing consultant transplanted from Southern California, doing publicity, promotions and public relations and more. Her firm is like a small PR agency targeting small- to medium-size businesses —
ones that that can’t afford a big firm. Most of her clients can’t afford $2,000 to $5,000 a month. Her clients pay about $250 for a national press release. She does in-house contract public relations for $45 an hour. Sometimes hired part-time and works within that budget. An aspect of the marketing department; marketing and promoting websites. Based on budgets, companies can be placed in the number two or three position on Google, Yahoo, MSN or monitor reciprocal links and more.
Another aspect of the business is soliciting sales through her database of rep agencies or through actual buyers. Helping product driven companies to place their product into retail loactions. Another part of the company does funding services; "growing" companies to a point where they take on investment dollars. "They’ve created a product and want to do a national push and need investors, such as "business angels" and venture capital."
