Houston, TX (1888PressRelease) February 11, 2008 - Entrepreneurs today have to work extra hard to get their companies firmly planted on the ground. One critical step for small business owners is the foundation of building a reputable company from the ground up. Many new businesses literally start on a whim and a notion. With typically only the drive and passion of an entrepreneur, small businesses are in desperate need of a makeover. One firm stands proudly for the growth of start-ups. Trisha Ahlman, CEO of Augment Marketing Group states, "It's not just home owners that need a makeover these days, what about the companies that keep this economy thriving?" Ms. Ahlman is fed up with seeing the struggles of small business owners and feels that taking one small step to help others, will lead to a great deal more for their future.

This amazing evolution is going to be captured on film for the world to see. Ms. Ahlman says she wants to show others how to boost their image and how they too can strengthen their position both with offline and online marketing. She decided to give-a-way a makeover to one lucky business owner in the Houston area. The makeover entries are taken from Augment's website (www.augmentgroup.com) for the entire month of February before the winner will be announced. The applicant should complete the online survey assessment, but can just contact the firm for more details if necessary. Ms. Ahlman says she has been marketing for over 15 years and the most discouraging thing to see is an entrepreneur that has the passion to succeed, but does not have the capital to invest in quality marketing materials. “Actualizing your marketing plan takes more than hard work, it takes perseverance”, states Trisha Ahlman.

It should be a very rewarding contest. All businesses are eligible, new or seasoned. As long as the need is there, Augment Marketing Group wants to help the business owner enhance their image and build a strong brand. The winner will receive a free website makeover, new logo with tag line, quality stock business cards, brochure, letterhead and envelop design—all integrated for a very professional final product. The winner will also receive a free search engine optimization report and publicity plan for the launch of their new look.

Ms. Ahlman states, “Marketing should be fun and exciting. More importantly, however, is winning the big contract. Unfortunately, small business owners do not have a chance if the company looks as if it has one employee and was started yesterday -- large firms see this as a risk. You have to present yourself in a professional manner to have a shot at the big leagues. With this makeover, we can help one company – that’s a start!”
