IMAGE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATES LAUNCHES NEWLY DESIGNED WEBSITE

SELECTED BY NATIONALLY ACCLAIMED PHOTOGRAPHER AS PUBLICITY AGENCY OF RECORD

(New Albany, Ohio – January 19, 2005) -- Ohio-based Image Management Associates, a public relations and business communications services firm, has announced the formal launch of its new website, and the addition of a nationally acclaimed photographer as a new client.

The company’s newly designed website can be found online at:

http://www.image-manage.com

“This new website brings a compelling new dimension to our online presence,” said IMA Managing Director Tom Corbett. “It combines the best of established and conventional elements with more progressive ones that distinguish our firm in uniquely positive ways. I am thrilled and excited about the reaction so far. This website tells our story and conveys our capabilities in forward-thinking ways that will add value for both us and for our clients.”

The Image Management Associates website contains nine major sections, each professionally designed to be highly informative and visually pleasing. Each section spells out a different component of the firm’s profile, philosophy, function, perspectives, and capabilities. The site’s most innovative and popular components include a Director’s Blog, or weblog, which Corbett himself authors. Accessible through a link on the firm’s homepage, the blog is set up to accept responses from the website’s visitors.

“The blog is a highly progressive component of this site,” Corbett added. “The concept of a blog is still an emerging phenomenon in the online world. Only a handful of established public relations firms have attempted it. Being a smaller and more nimble firm, we feel this is an excellent way to capitalize on our capabilities. Executed in thoughtful, measured ways, the blog has tremendous potential to enhance our visibility in a highly competitive marketplace.”

The Image Management Associates’ website, along with the website of its newest client, nationally known photographer Lee Marmon, are professionally designed and hosted by Cynthia Schuman of Cyberactivesites, LLC. Cyberactivesites is a full-service web design and hosting company based in Farmington Hills, Michigan.

“Both websites truly exemplify Cindy’s outstanding artistic and technical capabilities,” Corbett continued. “I’m proud to have selected her company as our firm’s web designer of record. She channels her creative instincts and resources according to our guidelines, and the results exceed expectations across the board. Her attention to detail is first-rate. I look forward to retaining her services on future projects.”

The distinctive new Image Management Associates logo, which features prominently at the top of each web page, is designed by Ann Redner of Ann Redner Creative, a full-service digital graphic design company based in Rochester Hills, Michigan. Redner has also designed logos for such high profile companies as Pulte Homes.

“Ann distinguished herself to us right out of the gate,” Corbett said. “She puts tremendous thought and perspective into her graphic work, and her commitment to excellence truly shows in the final product. I’m extremely proud to have her work serve as the most visible symbol of this firm.”

NATIONALLY KNOWN PHOTOGRAPHER SELECTS IMAGE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATES AS AGENCY OF RECORD

The launch of IMA’s new website coincides with the addition of award-winning Native American photographer and author Lee Marmon as the firm’s client.

Based in Laguna, New Mexico, Marmon has distinguished himself for more than fifty years with his priceless collection of black and white portrait and landscape images. He is the only known photographer to have so exhaustively documented the last generation of his native people to live by their traditional ways and values.

Image Management Associates is proud to unveil Mr. Marmon’s new website at:

The site is designed and hosted by Farmington Hills, Michigan-based Cyberactivesites, LLC.

“We are very proud and fortunate to be working with a client like Lee Marmon,” said IMA’s Managing Director Tom Corbett. “The quality and scope of his work is without parallel in the photography world. He is truly a national cultural treasure, and we look forward to sharing the beauty and impact of his work with a global audience.”

“Image Management Associates was the clear agency of choice for me,” Marmon said from his home in Laguna, New Mexico. “Tom Corbett has the professional background and experience in both media and client service that gives me great confidence in his capabilities.”

“Cindy Schuman’s work at Cyberactivesites has given my photographs a flattering digital showcase of unprecedented quality. I’m excited to see this new site debut. It is truly memorable and remarkable.”
