Creative Sage™'s photostream  

At Creative Sage™, we help organizations, project teams and individuals innovate to create outstanding management and marketing strategies, communications, solutions, services and products.

We design custom-tailored, modular creativity and innovation programs, and we consult with, train, mentor and coach people in every level of the workplace who are currently employed in corporations, on project teams, in their own businesses, nonprofit organizations, or in the arts. We also partner businesses and nonprofit organizations for projects that make the world a better place.

Additionally, we coach and mentor people who want to re-define "retirement" or who are already "retired" and want to create more meaningful lives. We design modular programs for executives and all employees who are approaching retirement and want to re-engineer their lives for greatness after they leave their current workplace.

We bring your inner innovator out of hiding. We help you innovate to be great!

Creative Sage™ grew as a new company branch from my previously established company, Cathryn Hrudicka & Associates, where we help you get the word out and get new clients through our marketing communications, public relations, business development and strategy mentoring and consulting programs.

Our team of talented associates implements marketing, public relations, print and online publishing campaigns. Our capabilities include designing print, online and multimedia collateral. We write first-rate copy, manage projects and edit publications. We do online marketing campaigns, and create content for e-letters, blogs, podcasts and AV/multimedia productions.

We also offer nonprofit organizations consulting, coaching and mentoring in the areas of marketing, communications, public relations, fundraising and strategic planning, and event production. We have co-produced many benefit events, concerts, exhibits and other innovative programs.

We bring your message to the world, and the world to you. Let's start a conversation...

By the way, I think it's always a matter of finding out where your audience is living and working, for any particular PR, marketing and social media outreach project—if they're still mainly on Google or Yahoo groups, for instance, or not even online very much, you've got to start where they are and bring them with you to newer media and social networks. We can introduce your audience to specific online meeting and information spaces, including blogs, YouTube, podcasts, Flickr, other Web 2.0 social networks. I find it really varies from project to project where I recommend starting—there isn't a totally pat template. You have to do your research first, find the audience and get their feedback. It's part of starting the conversation.
