Media Representative Firm - Advertising Sales Agents: About Gallagher Media & Marketing

About Us

Gallagher Media & Marketing is a publisher’s representative firm that offers successful sales and marketing solutions that help publications cultivate new advertisers while bringing value to existing advertising clients.

Legacy of Success

Twenty-five years of publishing experience brings with it an understanding of best practices and expedient business procedures, giving Gallagher Media & Marketing its unique ability to help publishers achieve sales goals while making the sales and marketing process smooth and orderly so that publishers can focus on other priorities.

Trust and Confidence

Turning over one’s client list and publication advertising sales to a third party requires a great deal of trust. Will key clients be treated with respect? Will telephone calls be returned promptly? Will directions be followed? These are but a few of the concerns that publishers have when they outsource their advertising sales function to an outside organization. At Gallagher Media & Marketing, we build on the strength of existing relationships, enhance them, and seek out and develop new business relationships on behalf of our clients. We do so with what have become hallmarks of our company — professionalism, tenacity and high levels of personal service.
