HOW DOES PAVILION ATTRACT MORE<br />

BUYERS?<br />

The Pavilion team works closely with our marketing<br />

agency Firstbase Business Services (www.firstbase.ca). This<br />

relationship provides the basis for our strategic advantage.<br />

Firstbase is an international strategic marketing agency<br />

with an exceptionally talented team to provide “best value”<br />

solutions for clients.<br />

Our marketing strategies are unique and comprehensive,<br />

when we implement the marketing program, we invariably<br />

have a significant level of high quality enquiries for each<br />

unique business enterprise we represent. The result is obvious<br />

very quickly – a higher level of qualified buyer enquiries based<br />

on our geo-demographic targeting initiatives.<br />

ABOUT FIRSTBASE<br />

Established in 1985, Firstbase was founded by Greg Spafford<br />

in 1985 in the UK and the business was a founding member<br />

of the Direct Marketing Association. The basis for success is<br />

that geo-demographic targeting enables precisely targeted<br />

messaging to niche and vertical markets. This expertise<br />

enables the selection of the most appropriate audience for<br />

specific messages to target business audiences around the<br />

globe.<br />

Unlike other indiscriminate media including newspapers,<br />

magazines, radio and television; targeted messaging ensures<br />

the message being delivered that the audience is relative.<br />

The result is higher levels of engagement and response<br />

based on accurate targeting.<br />
