The agency will hire full-time speakers and coaches as client and service demands dictate.

The agency will also hire a temporary Administrative Assistant until such time as a full-time Administrative Assistant can be hired as client and service demands dictate. The company will also hire an administrative assistant who will assist Mark with paperwork and act as a receptionist. Although it will rely on temporary and part-time help, quality will not be compromised, since customer service is the key to success. Smothers, his existing business, and personal relationships within the Upper Marlboro community will be the essential factor in establishing effective marketing. The marketing strategy will thus be achieved through a one-to-one, to basis with enhanced use of brochures. The strategy will be further enhanced by the monthly participation in a virtual one-to-many advertisement networking alliance with Alignable, to establish local and nation-wide marketing presence to gain loyal and repeat customers.
