Launching a new company is a big deal! Once a new company is incorporated, OCV Marketing will help the new company with a new company launch announcement plan.

Company Requirements

To kick off the launch plan, we ask that the company has the following ready:

  1. A company logo and brand assets
  2. The first iteration of the website is live
  3. Social media channels are set up with brand assets and taglines
