Description: Software development company
specializing in curriculum-based internet management and
internet infrastructure solutions.
Objective:
- Position BASCOM as the preeminent provider of integrated "Internet
access management solutions" for the K-12 and small-
and medium-sized business (SMB) markets.
- Distinguish BASCOM's "smart choice" access
management from the herd of "filtering" and "blocking" methodologies.
- Promote BASCOM's "thought leadership" on matters
pertaining to leveraging the Internet in the classroom
(how, with sensible access management, the Internet can
be effectively integrated into the classroom).
Results: Our media strategy targeted these
core messages to education, SMB, information technology (IT),
and government media outlets. We also campaigned prominent
legislators invested in providing safe Internet access for
the nation’s K-12 students. The following provides
a representative cross section of media placements and successful
