2009

Did 2009 and the financial crisis bring changes in the company?

Marius Dosinescu: At first no, because we saw the opportunities of the financial crisis, we become more aggressive in our sales and we managed to attract some important clients: TBI, Vodafone, Tarom. This way we managed to keep on track and actually obtain a growth of business. Yet, in January - March 2009 we suddenly felt a lack of cash flow because everyone reduced the budgets: clients, advertising agencies... complete silence.

What was the next step in the company's marketing, taking into consideration the Romanian economy?

Marius Dosinescu: We managed to impose ourselves on the falling market with an aggressive price strategy. Although we launched a great roect, that was intended to help the companies market themselves online better, www.creditpentruwebsite.ro ("Credit loan for your website"), we had few clients and this really made us sad.

Did you manage to get new clients?

Marius Dosinescu: In 2009 we managed to gain and loose in the same time a few important clients (Tarom, Generali), but also to win and stick to other important contracts, such as Radacini Motors, Apa Nova Bucuresti, Nelson Hall (UK), Vodafone.

What makes Avantaj NET Interactive a winner among other web design and web development agencies?

Marius Dosinescu: I wouldn't say exactly a winner, more "a right choice". Mainly, our history talks about an agency that has gone through hell and fire to reach this development stage, so at this point we can say that we provide our clients with the best solutions for their time schedule and budget limit. We are set on results, we are set on giving the right services for our client. We are not perfect, we give you that. But the most important thing is that we strive for perfection, and the more persuasive we are, the closer we et to that perfection.
