First Agency in the Southwest to Accept Cryptocurrency

You can talk the talk, or you can walk the walk. FabCom consistently does both, and after three decades of innovating, we’re still at it. 

FabCom is leading the way once again, this time with the future of online commerce. The agency is now accepting three types of cryptocurrency: bitcoin, dogecoin, and cardano. Cryptocurrency is a digital currency that uses blockchain to secure online transactions. Since blockchain decentralizes the management and recording of transactions, cryptocurrency is an extremely secure form of payment. 

The agency knows one thing for sure: this is the future of online commerce. Even Visa announced they are now accepting cryptocurrency. Banking aside, just think of the possibilities blockchain and cryptocurrency pose from a security aspect! New doors are opening with this technology for all industries, whether its education and digital credentials or cloud computing and storage.

Contrary to the list above, it is not the objective of FabCom to be first. From the beginning, this integrated agency strives to stay 3-5 years ahead of the pack by learning and evaluating new technology first and bringing the best right-sized technology to our clients to create new growth and efficiency opportunities to empower their brand with added market share.

By going through the learning curves first and applying what we learn from the advancing marketing or communications technology, we are able to pick through and uniquely apply technology for our clients. In order to achieve that value and keep brands ahead of the market’s changing curves, a consulting firm needs to learn and understand all of the technology facets first. A true partner understands the technology capabilities, problems, and solutions to recommend the best fit for a particular client or industry. 

Because we’ve been first to synthesize the capabilities of new technology for new marketing methods so many times, we’ve already thoroughly road tested the next, next, next big thing in technology and applied it in marketing and advertising to give our clients unprecedented marketing ROI. Because we’re a mid-sized agency, not an international conglomerate, we can deliver on our promises affordably, rapidly, and responsively. Contact us at (480) 478-8500 or [email protected].
