One on One with Aveus' Linda Ireland
“Traditional consulting firm” is perhaps the last description anyone would use to describe Aveus, a 25-person consulting firm based in St. Paul, Minnesota. Given its size, the firm has an impressive client roster, which includes: Cisco, Hitachi, and Xcel Energy. From its start in 1998, the way it approaches the market is unlike most firms. To better understand the business model, Consulting’s One on One sat down with Linda Ireland, one of Aveus’ four co-founders.

One on One with PwC's Tom Craren
Senior executives are becoming immune to traditional marketing. Marketing consultants tell us that to pierce through the white noise of corporate communication, firms should consider “content marketing”. Instead of more traditional marketing, providing valuable insight and perspective in a blog or electronic newsletter can serve as a more effective door opener. One of the best examples is PricewaterhouseCoopers’ “10-Minute” series. For almost three years, PwC has boiled down complex thought leadership into small electronic pieces an executive can read in about ten minutes. To learn more about PwC’s marketing efforts, Consulting’s One-on-One sat down with Tom Craren, the firm’s brand strategy and thought leadership leader. His team of 20 writers produces between two to three 10-minute pieces each month, along with more detailed white papers.
