Babacita ➞ John R Kowalski

With my evolution, it was (beyond) time to look the Babacita brand. Over the past 20 years, Babacita had served organizations, artists, and fire service audiences with an Evolve, Connect, and Inspire marketing ideology and practice. Looking where I currently am, the Babacita brand seems to be limiting. My work focuses on marketing — specifically an Integrative Marketing Fusion approach (see below for what this is). However, I am also more than marketing and wanted to include some other parts of me to embrace a more personal brand.

Integrative Marketing Fusion (IMF)

My philosophy has always been one of integrated marketing, meaning integrating the same visuals, messaging, tone, and feeling through multiple communication channels. This lends itself well to consistency, repetition, brand building, and strengthening.

But I think it can be even more impactful and bring even more value – internally and externally. I incorporate elements of change, network-building, brand ambassador creation, and most importantly, human value. So that’s where the term Integrative Marketing Fusion, or IMF, comes from and the meaning behind it.

So how is this accomplished?

Through honest and direct communication, transparency, respect, empathy, and a true value for each other and the gifts we each have. Internal with colleagues, and externally with customers, prospects, suppliers, and partners.

More to come!
