We know as Maxus that, in today’s fast-paced and complex media environment, our clients need a media agency which will turn this extraordinary change that this stage has created, into work-oriented results. By embracing both technology and innovation, we encourage our clients to go further and try new things. Providing effective, efficient and concrete, as well as creative results, combined with measurable communication solutions is the key for us. Being the one and only global media agency that was born in digital age and has its own creative technology department (eg. Metalworks) is what differs us from the others. Inspired by our motto “Lean Into Change”, we believe that the real opportunity for media is being an individual in digital world.

In MediaCom, we believe that everything is connected. And that means a media agency has to think and operate in an entirely new way. So new that we don’t even call ourselves a media agency anymore. We call ourselves The Content + Connections Agency. We have a unique approach to planning and buying across paid, owned and earned media, which can optimise our clients’ entire system– not just the individual channel silos within them. For us, “content” refers to any form of consumer messaging that connects brands with their consumers. “Connections” is how we guide the content around the system, ensuring there are no dead ends or wastage. This framework drives connectedness through our global digital portal, ensuring One MediaCom approach.
