About us

Company

Semiosis Communications designs and implements sustainable marketing solutions that empower socially responsible organizations to differentiate themselves, cultivate community support, and optimize their triple-bottom line.

We envisage a world comprising communities that have the capacity to solve their own problems.

We believe that nonprofits and socially responsible businesses should strive to accomplish this vision.

We believe nonprofits and socially responsible businesses can increase their capacity to serve their communities by elevating their community’s need over their own and allocating their energy and existing resources to fulfilling that need. Organizations driven by community-centered missions serve as infrastructure for building social networks and relationships among people.

We believe that we and our customers can strengthen our communities by nurturing relationships and partnerships, building alliances and coalitions, and fostering networks and connections with our stakeholders. Organizations that cultivate long-term relationships with their stakeholders will not only build stronger and empowered communities but also succeed in their marketing efforts. Community building does work as a marketing strategy!

Based in Portland, Oregon, we serve primarily the greater Portland metropolitan area, but as a virtual firm we can serve socially responsible organizations anywhere.

Semiosis Communications: Differences that make a difference.
