IN MARKETS, MEDIA AND BUDGETS OF ALL SIZES.
The Omni-channel world we live in today has created the most interconnected and voracious consumption of media history as ever known. The average consumer takes in information across a multitude of screens and printed material simultaneously, and many advertising messages hang in the balance. So finding the right media, at the right time, at the right place, at the right price and with the right message has truly never been more important. At GWA, we have spent decades focused on the strategies, science and skills needed to balance these needs to achieve the goals our clients desired. Below are a few examples of just how far you can go with the right partner by your side.
Our Media Services
Our media services for the most part are all inclusive…because we have yet to meet anyone who truly enjoys additional billing. At GWA, we offer clients the ability to focus more on running their businesses than worrying if they spent too much time solving a problem with their agency partner. At the end of the day a true partner should care more about getting the best value, impact and results for their client rather than their billable hours. As such we offer a complete suite of campaign inclusive media services to fit a mix of client needs.
Strategy: Online & Offline
The architecture of any great campaign begins with the basics and evolves through the careful stewardship of seasoned experts and clear objectives. The strategy that comes from this process is critical to longevity, impact, and ultimately your ROI. Because we all know, you can’t sell what you don’t advertise, and how you approach the market makes all the difference in the world.
Negotiation & Buying
Global Media Works, GWA’s centralized, in-house media relations team researches, selects, plans, negotiates, purchases and schedules your advertising campaign. Our proprietary relationships with over 7,500 media properties across the United States and Canada afford us the ability to gain the maximum value for our clients regardless of their campaigns size or geographic focus.

Research & Competitive Analysis
Long ago Sun Tzu famously said that “if you know your enemy and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles”. It is incredible to think that not that much has changed in all that time, and today, the more you know, the stronger you are. At GWA, we take this to heart and employ a dedicated team of analysts and tools to provide our partners with the best intelligence possible.
Verification & Reporting
Verico, our in house verification, tracking and reporting team, serves as your campaign’s personal watchdog, ensuring that every ad not only ran as scheduled, but was of the highest quality possible. They do this across every advertising medium, proofing close to a million spots annually with less than a 1% error rate. Yes, we also think it is quite impressive.

Our Media Networks
We believe that a network should be more than just reach and frequency. It should connect with your target audience wherever they are, online, offline and on the go. A network needs to not only be impactful, but influential in a target audience’s complete circle of life, thus allowing a campaign’s message to resonate within a multitude of influencers and ultimately increase their propensity to act. It is with this strategy that a campaign can live long beyond its placement and truly make an impact that yields a lasting ROI.
