An effective, integrated communications plan can help drive your business goals. Without one, your company risks any number of negative consequences ranging from anonymity to unfavorable impressions among your most influential targets.

Unless your marketing team can demonstrate thorough understanding of each of these target audiences, you need Mattson Communications - seasoned with experience across corporate communications, business and financial PR.

Business and Financial Media
A popular target among attention-seekers, these journalists and bloggers must be skeptical of every company and its products. They ask tough questions and read between the lines. Across industries there are major differences among print and online business media and the technology and business bloggers. Approaching these outlets requires in-depth knowledge of their areas of interest, relationship-building skills and solid communications materials.

Capital markets
Venture capital firms look for a pipeline of new technology ideas, entrepreneurial and management talent and companies that will evolve. Financial analysts can catapult an unknown company to stardom and mutual fund managers can take fairly large positions in companies once they're publicly traded, prompting savvy companies to secure their interest prior to an IPO. In addition, analysts and managers may move over to venture capital firms, streamlining future fundraising. Individual investors are increasingly channeling money into newly public companies, making their own decisions based on online media. Approaching these audiences requires the ability to clearly communicate your growth record and vision.

Industry Analysts
With the ear of Fortune 500 clients, industry analysts can generate major client wins by recommending the best products and services, and they can drive media coverage of new and evolving trends. Achieving their endorsement requires solid relationships and face-to-face contact.

Partners
Strategic alliances and partnerships with resource providers can draw big name clients, and may ultimately fulfill your company's exit strategy through acquisition. High-profile partnerships offer smaller companies access to a broader base of media and industry analysts. Attracting premier partnerships will require an excellent media profile, demonstrating your company's ability to fill an important gap in the partners' capabilities or offerings.

Clients
Big names on the client roster will raise the stakes in an IPO or merger, attract a network of vendors and alliances, while adding credibility to your marketing materials, Web site and social media content. Landing those clients will require the appearance of innovation, stability and scalability for the long term.

Employees
Corporate communications is a key challenge for companies relying on decentralized operations - such as home offices and mobile workers - to control overhead and raise productivity and valuations. Targeted emails and social media efforts from senior management can communicate your company's growth strategy and deflect the rumor-mill's impact.
