THE COMPANY In Spring of 1987 Sweeney Media Marketing (SMM) officially opened its doors and began to offer independent media, marketing and promotional consultation. Advertising agencies and direct clients quickly found the advantages of working with Sweeney for swift and strategic media expertise. Sweeney Media grew. In the year 2000, after the planning and placement of over a billion dollars in media, Sweeney has made a name by using both established media principles and unorthodox strategies. Sweeney considers and has bought and negotiated all elements of media: television, radio, outdoor, newsprint, magazines, radio promotions, banners, sponsorships, direct marketing, radio tie-ins, even aerial banners! In the quest to find effective added value, Sweeney Media Marketing has no rivals. The entire Sweeney staff is steeped in the company's philosophy of dedication to results and creativity.
