Top 10 Reasons Why
Why Startups Choose Trainer
  • 1. The guessing game is over. We work with you to understand your core assets and potential, and we set your expectations for marketing deliverables with a forecasted, money-back guarantee model.

  • 2. There is no substitute for experience. We've launched more than 150 startups and / or startup initiatives since 1995.

  • 3. You don't have the time or money to gamble.  Startups are risky enough; no need to gamble on an unproven communications resource that may appear cheap – but then deliver nothing (or worse yet, get it wrong!) after months of investment.

  • 4. Our accessible network of funding sources, influential industry pundits, industry analysts, media, bloggers, channel and technology partners, and other creative resources elevates Trainer as a trusted, strategic partner and gives you a leg up.

  • 5. We only hire the best.  Trainer takes great pains to recruit and hire top talent in the industry – attracting rising stars from corporate giants and startups, as well as respected agencies.

  • 6. We're fair and principled, and take a long-term perspective. Our clients view us as  partner – a trusted member of their team – rather than a vendor.

  • 7. We never stop learning. We invest in and have a passion for learning as individuals and as an agency.  We believe this curiosity keeps us open and better consultants for you.

  • 8. Our work gets noticed! We've had the great honor of winning marketing and communications awards over the years that demonstrate our creative talent and the strength of our agency ranging from the Holmes Report to the Marketing Awards to the Silver Anvils.

  • 9. Location, location, location. We are headquartered in the heart of innovation: Silicon Valley.

  • 10. What others who have worked with us have to say: "The work Trainer did in preparation for the conference to change the media mindset prior to the event was invaluable." Chris Parnell, Jericho Forum
