What is Evident Marketing?

Evident is a strategic marketing consulting company.

We help companies figure out who they are and what they do for a living.

Then we help them tell other people about themselves.

Who is Evident Marketing?

Who are we kidding? Evident is a one-person company. David Weinberger.

Hi.

What's the relation to The Cluetrain Manifesto?

David Weinberger (see above) is one of the four authors of the site and book.

We try not to be too wildly inconsistent with what it says. But, hey, no one's perfect. (Oh, except you, I'm sure.)

What do you end up with?

Stuff such as:

  • Web site ideas and content

  • Long-ish writing that explains stuff and tells a story (aka white papers)

  • A day-long meeting that helps you figure out what the hell you're doing and how to talk with your customers about it

  • A PowerPoint presentation that helps you explain yourself to industry analysts or customers

  • A set of seminars or Webinars that brings David Weinberger to your company or customers

  • An educational film strip called "Hemo the Magnificent," explaining the miracle of the circulatory system.

Areas of Specialization?

1. The impact of the Web on the way businesses are organized and run (= "The Hyperlinked Organization")

2. Not looking like jerks online

3. Knowledge management, collaboration, document management

Distinctive Characteristics?

We here at Evident are a pretty conceptual bunch. Great with ideas, but not exactly your quantitative marketing analysis whiz kids.

We're pretty creative.

Most of what we do comes out funny. Sometimes on purpose.

JOHO: The Journal of the Hyperlinked Organization

Evident is also the publisher of The Journal of the Hyperlinked Organization (JOHO), a web newsletter that considers the subtle, pervasive and sometimes surprising effect of the Web (especially in the form of intranets) on how businesses work. (It's free.)

And don't forget our daily weblog on whatever the hell we want to talk about.
