Capabilities

Six areas, used together.

Most engagements draw on several of these at once. What matters is which ones your objective actually needs — and which ones it doesn't.

Scopes are built around the assignment. No two engagements are packaged the same way.

01

Brand & Strategy

When clients bring us in

The business has objectives, but nothing connects them to an audience — and every department is telling a slightly different story.

What we may shape together

We spend time in the category and with the people you're trying to reach, then write down what the brand stands for plainly enough that everyone can use it.

  • Consulting for small business through corporate
  • Strategic marketing and brand management
  • Positioning, narrative, and messaging

02

Creative & Campaigns

When clients bring us in

There's a position, and now it needs a form — something recognisable on sight rather than another round of executions.

What we may shape together

One organising idea, expressed with restraint, and the discipline to keep it intact everywhere it appears.

  • Creative platforms and campaign concepts
  • Integrated campaign planning
  • Cooperative marketing opportunities

03

Press & Media

When clients bring us in

The story is worth telling and nobody is telling it — or the moment is coming and the materials aren't ready.

What we may shape together

Materials written to be used, relationships worked directly, and timing chosen so coverage lands where your audience already is.

  • Public relations and press releases
  • Media placements
  • Press kit / EPK creation and revision
  • International media relations and exposure

04

Influence & Talent

When clients bring us in

Reach is easy to buy. Credibility isn't, and the wrong alignment costs more than it returns.

What we may shape together

A short list of people who genuinely fit, an agreement structured to hold, and someone senior stewarding the relationship after signature.

  • Talent management
  • Sponsorship and spokesperson opportunities
  • Partnership strategy and structuring

05

Events & Experiences

When clients bring us in

The brand is seen often and remembered rarely, and a real moment would change that.

What we may shape together

A special event built as the sharpest version of the idea — designed for the room and for what circulates after it empties.

  • Special events and brand activations
  • Event promotion and audience development
  • On-site production and run-of-show

06

Digital & Design

When clients bring us in

The owned channels look like an afterthought next to the work that brought people to them.

What we may shape together

Design and content held to the same standard as the campaign, then run at a pace you can actually sustain.

  • Web and graphic design
  • Social media management
  • Email campaigns
  • Online marketing and services

Best fit

Where we do our best work.

  • Brands launching something that has to land the first time
  • Organizations repositioning after a shift in strategy or category
  • Brands entering culture and needing credibility to do it
  • Teams building talent, sponsorship, or cooperative partnerships
  • High-stakes moments: openings, announcements, and tentpole events

Not a fit

One-off commodity execution with no strategic context. If the ask is volume production detached from a position, another partner will serve it better.

FAQ

Before you write.

How do engagements work?
They're tailor-made rather than packaged. Scope, structure, and duration are built around your goals, budget, and timing, and agreed during discovery.
Where do you work?
ILMG operates from the New York area and works wherever the audience is. The corporate profile documents international media relations and exposure.
What are typical timelines?
It depends on the objective and the calendar around it. Timelines are mapped in discovery and revisited as things move.
How is confidentiality handled?
Client details are not published without permission. Relevant credentials can be shared directly on request.
Who is involved day to day?
Vern is. Specialist support is assembled per engagement around him.
