EXCLUSIVE MEDIA CREATION, PRODUCTION, & DISTRIBUTION
As high-volume retailers with significant marketing muscle, most members of the CIVITAS community will have well formed strategies around who they are in the marketplace and what kinds of promotional and brand messaging have been successful with their customers. Some will execute their marketing efforts with internal staffs, others may incorporate outside agencies, and many will use a blend of the two. The CIVITAS team is experienced and comfortable with all of these arrangements and exists to provide cost efficiencies and high production values to online, on-air and in-store media via any or all of those options. One of our goals is to minimize production costs while improving quality in order to maximize the funds available for media buys and promotional offers.
​
Whether it's a back-of-napkin idea or a formal creative brief, we've become adept at working with home grown marketing departments and traditional agencies alike. With our complete in-house production studios, post production suites, creative staff, talent agency relationships, music and media licensing agreements, and experience with dozens of first-call contractors and talent, the CIVITAS Team has a decades-long track record of serving the needs of the most demanding retailers and manufacturers.
CIVITAS ​provides:
​
-
Group-exclusive online, on-air and in-store media elements for major promotional periods and off-promotional periods refreshed annually. Deliverables include broadcast commercials, web videos, digital signage messaging, text and graphics for social media and more. Either these CIVITAS media packages, or your internally created options will be personalized with your company's identity and your unique offers.
​​
-
A library of produced and curated video elements featuring key manufacturers and products for use on websites, social media, broadcast and SeeMonster digital signage. Many vendors produce and make available high quality media with their vendor-focused messaging, however many suppliers do not. The CIVITAS team is skilled at repurposing vendor-focused assets into unique dealer-focused vehicles AND in efficiently creating new media assets for products and brands that don't produce their own.
