About TWMG Bill and Joanna Shaker founded The Washington Marketing Group in 1987. However, the Shaker Creative Team has been producing award-winning direct marketing campaigns and launching organizational membership programs for more than twenty years. In a past life, Bill Shaker ran both public policy and charitable organizations. In that capacity he learned that issues and causes of little popular appeal could be brought to life and given great fundraising appeal with innovative formatting. In fact, converting traditional packages to WMG Designs often lifts response by 25% to 35%. The Washington Marketing Group has launched and built several organizations. Our multimedia campaign for ACHCR won the Triple Crown -- ECHO, MAXI and John Caples. WMG increased ACHCR membership from 3,000 to 500,000 members within 18 months. We accomplished this increase by carefully targeting consumer groups with a tightly integrated direct mail and multimedia campaign. The organization enjoyed direct mail response rates of between 4% and 10% for most of the prospect lists mailed. The Washington Marketing Group was also chief fundraiser for Keyes 2000, generating close to $12 million for the Alan Keyes Presidential Campaign.
