AngelouEconomics is one of the largest independent economic development consulting firms in the U.S.

Our approach is unique. We customize each project to meet the needs of our clients, with special emphasis on high impact, high wage employers. Strategies are based on the lessons we learn from our site selection clients as well as our continued tracking of the trends and site requirements of those businesses.

AngelouEconomics offers clients a full line of services to help develop, market, implement, and understand economic development. We enable communities to identify and uniquely position marketing assets that will attract their target industries. Each client receives a customized strategy that builds on a community’s strengths and opportunities, and activates awareness and growth.

We understand the intricate details of the site selection requirements of high impact companies. AngelouEconomics has provided site selection services and economic analyses for companies in the microelectronics, information technology, life science, and telecommunication industries. Through these projects, we have become personally familiar with the executive teams of these firms and have insight into the future movement of these businesses.

Three aspects of AngelouEconomics help us stand out
from our competitors.

First, our strategies reflect the insight we acquire as site selectors. We work for high impact companies that communities – from Round Rock to Orlando to the State of New York – strive to recruit and retain. We understand what attracts the attention of decision-makers within these firms. We know what marketing techniques “open doors” and which approaches are ineffective.

Second, our strategies reflect our experience as economic development consultants. We have worked in communities across the U.S. and Europe and have witnessed similar economic development tactics duplicated again and again. We are able to differentiate a region from its competitors because we have a proven process of working with communities to identify marketing assets and establish their brand. Through our knowledge of what communities around the globe have to offer, we are able to help our clients truly differentiate themselves.

Finally, our economic development strategies reflect our philosophy that the best economic development campaigns are generated from the inside out. Unlike many of our competitors, we place equal emphasis on internal marketing – engaging the entire community in a marketing initiative. This will occur through our hands-on approach – collecting public input at every step of the process, through interviews, focus groups, and a collaborative project Web site that provides access to information and an avenue for communication.
