„I would recommend Boris and his team to anyone looking to get high quality and reliable A/V production and graphic design service at prices that are multiple times lower than in EU countries“

“Boris and his team did a great job making a 2D/3D video animation which we used for presenting our department’s CEE, ME & Africa market results and future plans to Nike Global marketing management members. Besides video and audio production Mark IN agency provided us with matching graphic design services of our PowerPoint presentations making them really stand out.

Besides being fast and reliable, delivering on agreed deadlines while being available for continuous consultations and briefings, Mark IN agency’s pricing was a pleasurable surprise to say at least. I would recommend Boris and his team to anyone looking to get high quality and reliable A/V production and graphic design service at prices that are multiple times lower than in EU countries. Quality really doesn’t have to come at sky-rocketing prices. Lower prices and innovative/alternative approach in current economic environment should recognized as a clear benefit for any company/brand manager.” October 28, 2010

„He is trustworthy and gets stuff done My advice is to work with him. It will save you money and still get a high quality.“

“We have worked with Boris on creative projects. Boris has the guts to start an outsourcing company based in Holland. He is trustworthy and gets stuff done. My advice is to work with him. It will save you money and still get a high quality.” November 24, 2011

“Ik heb met Boris en zijn team van professionals gewerkt aan verschillende video- en ontwerp opdrachten. Ik was zeer tevreden met het resultaat van Markin Agency! Ze bieden hoge kwaliteit tegen concurrerende prijzen. Hiernaast spelen ze bij elk project een belangrijke rol binnen het brainstorm/ideeën proces. Ze zijn punctueel en letten op elk detail binnen het gegeven project. Als je op zoek bent naar een betrouwbare zakenpartner dan hoef je niet verder te zoeken.” November 19, 2010

The Pillar of Shame will serve as a metaphor for the immense betrayal of the United Nations in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and as a warning to all future co-workers of the United Nations. The plan: the 16,744 shoes (representing 8,372 victims) should form two gigantic letters measuring eight meters in height and colored in shimmering white. The two letters (‘U’ and ‘N’) will be penetrated by three monumental bullet holes with real shoes found in mass graves embedded in them.

In search for public support, our photography production team, led by Vanja Lisac, was to take pictures of more than 100 most influential people in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Their support was to be shown through photographs of them being barefooted in different location throughout Sarajevo, holding their shoes to be donated for the cause, next to them. The whole project lasted for several months; most of the photographs were done outside and in natural light. Photographs were published all around the world (magazines, TV, internet). Project continues, while next year there will be a photography book coming out with all of the photographs in one place.

Integrated Marketing Communications

Integrated Marketing Communications is a concept which ensures that all forms of communications and messages are carefully linked together and unified into a single, optimizing force.

All of communications tools work better if they work together in harmony rather than in isolation. Their sum is greater than their parts - providing they speak consistently with one voice all the time, every time.

However, to truly follow an IMC philosophy one needs to invest a lot of effort and resources. These resources are sometimes either unavailable within a company or too expensive to seek and hire from third parties on the „ad hoc“ principle.

For small and mid-sized companies, times of recession brought the pressure of lower marketing investments, which often lead to sub-optimal marketing communications, lower brand awareness, lower conversion to sales etc.

Now with Creative Outsourcing's new service, „Marketing Team“, any sized company can from now on truly embrace the Integrated Marketing Communications approach and work on their communications at their own pace.

Why choose “Marketing Team” service?

• Always available resourcesThe members of the Marketing team are always available to their client.• Fixed price per monthPlan your expenditure at the level of the year, with no surprises, and choose a custom-made package.• The flexibilityInterchangeable hours between team members. Depending on your ongoing needs during one month/current situation (should you need more hours of design, then for example iPhone development, video etc.) client can use the hours of all other members for set of services he needs now/within this month. Also, in case that a client estimates that some future activity will require expenditure of more hours at a later point of time, the monthly hours of the team don't have to be spent within the current month, but can be transferred to next ones.• Paying in installmentsActivities which require higher investments of resources/hours you don't have to pay all at once, but according to the chosen monthly dynamics. You spend hours now (out of the yearly total), pay in monthly rates! Say, you have a video animation or book of graphic standards you want to do now, but the hour estimate expenditure exceeds the monthly package, you don't have to wait. We can work now, and subtract the amount from the future months (or the yearly total available).

Why choose “Marketing Team” service?

• Creative freedomObtaining the freedom in terms of experimenting with the new ways of communication due to the constant availability of resources (your ideas, suggestions about new activities you have been thinking about but were too expensive to implement or to try).

• New activities without additional costIn case the monthly hours of the team are not spent within that month, and if the client doesn't want to save them for future ones, the agency has an obligation to think of a concept/activity which could be done for a client without any additional cost so the hours would be spent.

• ControlBefore any activity the client receives the Cost Estimation of hours, sent for his approval, so no surprise expenditure of hours.

• Significantly lower pricesBesides the fact the Creative Outsourcing’s services are per se priced at a fraction of Dutch market prices, “Marketing Team” service provides clients with even more attractive rates. For example the starting package “S” provides you professional resources at 33 EUR/hour

We believe in our mission, helping clients achieve more in their marketing communication while at the same time we help young creative professionals ensure a brighter future for themselves.

Ultimately, we want to change the international perception of our country – next time somebody mentions Bosnia-Herzegovina, instead of war, you will think : creative and professional service at a fraction of a price!
