What We Do
Plan ahead.
A sound strategy selects the best tools for the job and will save time, money, and most of all, your business.
Lead them to your message.
Arrest their attention. Intrigue them. Make them wonder. Fit your personality and brand.
It's all about what you say.
How you say it matters. Informing comes down to telling the story and choosing the shortest, clearest path to understanding. Complicated and technical concepts can be translated for conversations at all levels.
We communicate ideas.
Ideas stick when people work with them, play with them, and talk about them.
What is your audience saying?
Communication involves listening as well as talking. We build an 'ear' into every effort possible. This can take the form of web analytics, event attendance, sales, direct response, or even opinion surveys.
The job isn't done when the project is delivered — we will stick with you, measuring all metrics to make sure everything we do is results-driven.
WHAT WE DO
It's all integrated
When every communications element is integrated with each other, an organization gains more than the total of each element individually.
At Uncork-it, our campaigns are fully integrated and when we are tasked with just a single element, we make sure it integrates with existing efforts from other sources.

WHO WE ARE
Established in 1985 as The Right Word, we have helped businesses and non-profits across the country reach their goals through effective, high-quality communications and marketing strategy.
We find strategic, creative solutions to client problems and enjoy making complex or technical messages clear.
In January 2009, we changed our name to Uncork-it and moved downtown. Due to strong growth, in 2014 we moved to larger offices in the Virginia Tech Corporate Research Center.
