Simplicity Speaks Volumes.

New media is the art of simple.

Take for example, RSS. Really Simple Syndication, or the new media tool for making it easy to keep up to task with the latest news and information from websites that are constantly updated. A couple of clicks, and you have the latest from your favorite news or gossip site.

In the same way, we know our product. We know our services. That's why we chose the format you're seeing for our website. We realize to disseminate information about us effectively, we should use one of the products we help our clients develop and use effectively: a blog.

In the coming weeks and months (and if we're lucky, years), you'll see links to the personal blogs of our partners and staff, as well as interesting posts about new developments and breakthroughs we've found in our unique field. We hope you will continue to come back, and continue to interact with us in the future.




Just to explain...

We are Maryland's Premier Consulting Firm for Social Media and Grassroots solutions."

Now, what does that even mean?
Well, we're a new media consulting firm. This means that we use the latest new media and social networking applications and apply them to create unique solutions for businesses and political clientèle. Our partners and staff consult clients on the use of new media campaigning to enhance marketing campaigns, grassroots presence, and fundraising potential. Also, we deliver young interns and volunteers to any and all political or social events. We help politicians create a system of grassroots to enable a greater span of communication through out the region.

We utilize social media tools to connect our clients to the the people they want to hear their message. Then, for political clients, using our vast networks, help campaigns put together the grassroots support that helped get Obama elected in November 2008.

New Media, Youth Involvement, and Grassroots.
That really is our game plan, and it can help a local business grow a loyal and dependable customer base, an embassy develop a reliable press and public interest platform, and get a shiny-eyed first-time (or incumbent) candidate elected to office. That's the reality of what we do. And why you should think twice before going it alone in an economy as bad as this one.

If you're interested in just how we make such heady claims a reality, well it takes more than a blog post to that. But we can give you an idea of the new media tools we use:
Blogs, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Youtube, Digg, amongst others.

Now, this blog post isn't designed to answer all your questions about new media, social media, or why you'd ever need a consultant to help you with any of these problems. But it does give you food for thought.

NEW MEDIA FIRM OPENING IN COLLEGE PARK

Minority and Young Entrepreneur Owned Firm Opens Doors

College Park, Maryland, Jan 26, 2010-- Khan & Associates LLP is a new media firm opening its doors in College Park. Khan & Associates LLP's purpose is to consult clients on the use of New Media, Social Media, and Media 2.0 solutions in politics and in business. It is also one of the first new media consulting firms in Maryland to date. More than half the firm's principals are from minority backgrounds, and all are either recent college graduates or still enrolled in College. The grand opening and open house event is held Feb. 6th, 2010 inside the Sterling Building from 10:30 a.m to 2 p.m. at 4920 Niagara Rd. College Park, MD 20740, Suite 214.

Senior Managing Partner, Hamza Khan, is currently on hiatus from University of Maryland Baltimore Campus (UMBC) to focus on the opening of this firm. Whereas, other managing partners such as Evan Rosenberg, UMBC '11, David Anguish UMBC '11 and Erich Reimer Johns Hopkins University '12 balance college and work. Recent graduate, Sherryn Daniel, College of Notre Dame of Maryland '09, has said to balance work at the firm and studying for grad school in her free time.

Khan has an extensive resume of community activism, as do partners Reimer and Anguish. Khan consulted the several Iranian dissident organizations this summer, and is the President of the Maryland Federation of College Democrats, an organization he has tripled in size since coming to office. He is also the National Chairman of the Middle Eastern Caucus of College Democrats. Before his political involvement, Khan was an avid interfaith worker in Baltimore, who experimented in using social media to enhance his field work and communications between Israeli Jews and non-Israeli Muslims. Reimer is an experienced youth activist for the Democratic Party and in his hometown of Albany, NY, and Anguish currently is President of the UMBC chapter of College Democrats.

"Our firm is filling a gap in Maryland politics through bringing in youth, Grassroots and Social Media," the Senior Managing Partner said. By bringing those three in together, you have a potent formula for success."

The grand opening and open house event is open to all members of the public who are interested in the opening of a new business venture in the College Park area.

New Media Consulting is a growing service field with in the Washington D.C. area. The marriage of community activism and new media consulting is a twist on the traditional political consulting field; and according to the various research studies, it promises to draw more young people into the political spectrum. The political niche within New and Social Media grew ever since President Barack Obama's success story in 2008. All members of the public are invited to join Khan & Associates LLP in starting our new business.

These events will occur concurrently on Saturday Feb. 6th, 2010.

Grand Opening: 10:30 a.m.
