That’s why we care

(probably a little too much)

About whether you close that Fortune 500 account. About scoring that make or break funding round. About driving downloads and getting items into shopping carts. About whether that great engineer wants to work at your company. About attracting resellers who will really sell your stuff. About whether or not people know your name.

Passion is too weak a word. It’s all about helping you win. It’s positioning you in a way that’s going to leave your competition trying to imitate you. It’s driving the bottom line. It’s knowing when to go tried and true, and when to be creative. It’s email at 3 a.m. It’s not even considering losing with dignity.

At Karbo Communications we know how to map a path to success. Not because we’ve done it once or twice, but because we’ve done it too many times to count. We’ll drive results for your company by dedicating a respected, senior team to your business, day in and day out.

with no customers or name recognition. Karbo Communications was brought in to differentiate the startup in the crowded enterprise security market, while executing a creative, aggressive PR program to drive market visibility and sales.

Large, hardware-focused monopolies

have historically controlled the storage industry, forcing enterprises into expensive contracts that require upgrades and vendor lock-in, and diminish flexibility and strain IT budgets.

The debate over Netflix’s price hike,

Uber and Lyft surge pricing, the recent controversy with the AIDS medication pricing, and the constant fluctuations in oil and gas prices all indicate that companies are struggling to make crucial pricing decisions.
