1st Straw Marketing & Promotions

Based in Medford, New Jersey, this small business markets itself to companies in the South Jersey region, including a stated focus on cannabis industry clients as a specialty niche. It works with small businesses and non-profit organizations, positioning itself around business analysis, marketing consulting, and comprehensive marketing planning rather than a single service line, with a team of one to ten people handling client work directly. Its service list spans local SEO alongside custom apparel, custom products, and custom printing, direct mail marketing, cross-platform marketing, copywriting, graphic design and art production, and marketing consulting. Described methods include crafting messages around relevance, simplicity, clarity, and consistency; planning and promoting events to attract new customers; designing and producing projects aimed at lead generation, lead-to-sale conversion, brand visibility, and website traffic; and building tailored marketing plans to support fundraising for non-profit organizations. For promotional products specifically, the agency states a written satisfaction guarantee covering product and printing defects and on-time arrival for time-sensitive promotions, with replacement or refund offered if items are returned and do not meet the agreed criteria. It also publishes a stated procedure and artwork guidelines for clients placing orders, intended to guide project setup from the start.
