New Agency Opens Doors; Online

Thursday, April 24, 2008

Industry veteran Jamie Cochran has announced the opening of LiveHive, a Virtual Ad Agency. Cochran, Founder and Chief Creative Officer, has more than 10 years experience in the advertising and media marketplace. Cochran left Leo Burnett in 2004 to pursue his vision of a more productive and efficient business model, yet still keeping the creativity at a higher standard.

What the Virtual Agency model provides is total flexibility and cost savings for both the client and the Agency members. This results in higher quality and lower costs but it does not compromise on quality.

“Our first projects have reduced our clients costs by more than 30 percent,” Cochran said. "LiveHive specializes in brand building ideas with a focus on the big concept. If needed we collaborate with partners specializing in web marketing, accessibility experts, copywriters and designers, to name a few. We are continuously expanding our roster of independent professionals."

The majority of LiveHive's business is done online and on the phone using project management applications and other network technologies. And because of the unique structure of its agency, they are typically less expensive than a full blown agency.

"We don’t have to pay for an office space, secretaries and other overhead costs, but we can still reap the benefits of our numbers by sharing expenses such as bookkeepers, software licenses, marketing and advertising. Therefore, LiveHive becomes whatever you need us to be, for every project, without limitations, at a price you can afford—without sacrificing quality." commented Cochran.
