Ajar Communications, LLC was founded in September 2006 by brothers Tim and Mike Marchand and is head quartered in our hometown of Manchester, CT.
We work with businesses of all sizes, including startups, corporate clients and non-profit organizations, as well as schools and other public institutions.
Clients who value original commercial art find they can afford a highly customized experience by working with Ajar.
Beyond our graphic design and marketing services, Ajar's secondary goal is to expand as a working art studio, with original prints and pieces for sale and Ajar artists available for commissioned projects.
Check out our online galleries to see what's available now – and as always, contact us if you have a special project in mind.
Clients that work with Ajar see results, and more importantly, develop a sense of pride and ownership in their projects. The world of business is a team sport. Helping others achieve their vision is our goal.
We create customized marketing material that makes your message clear to your audience and builds brand confidence within your organization.
We begin every project with research and fact-finding activities. Ajar wants to know about your organization, your industry, your process and your objectives.
Who is your target audience? Your niche market? What makes you a stand out?
Ajar will shape the message to tell your story.
Information is gathered through simple interviews with you and your key people. Based on this input, we will begin developing your custom-fit marketing material.
Ajar typically designs 3 initial concepts for your consideration. Based on feedback, one is chosen or reworked for final design. Client input is requested throughout the design process to ensure success.
At its core, Ajar is a first generation family-run business. We're personable and we're reliable and we pride ourselves on delivering excellence and value.
Way back in our history there was an old Chrysler family station wagon. [Blue, with torn carpet on the floor in the back]. On the dashboard there was a red indicator light to warn if the very back door was not latched properly: “The Gate is Ajar”.
From the start, we wanted our company to be open to a wide range of projects and ideas. Creativity springs forth from OPEN, judgment-free environments and dialogue.
To this day, we are Ajar – ready to consider every opportunity that walks in the door.
