ABOUT US

OUR MAVERICK ROOTS

Media Experts was founded in Montreal in 1981. Back then, the ad agency world was made up of predominantly full-service agencies. Companies such as Media Experts (specializing in the art of media buying) were thought to be rebels. To this day, we honour our maverick roots by always striving to be nimble, adaptive, and ahead of the competition in an ever-changing media landscape, allowing us to grow our customers’ businesses.

We have, and continue to be privileged to provide high performance media solutions, driving the sales of some of Canada’s leading brands and most savvy marketers. We provide advertisers with proven, award winning media solutions across all traditional, digital and emerging platforms. We deliver the best of both worlds: an agency with an entrepreneurial, independent spirit backed by best-in-class global resources. The result is agility, efficiency, and innovation.

LEADERSHIP

MEET SOME OF OUR EXPERTS!

Business growth does not just happen. You need always-on, active leadership; leaders with the foresight to know where the industry is headed, and how to capitalize on those changes for each client.

Meet the people who grew our business with their hands-on approach to each and every client.
