An introduction
to DCM Media
We are an independent media strategy and buying consultancy, bridging the often huge gap between creative and media.*
One which is fit for the modern media landscape – multi skilled, fleet of foot, collaborative, with low overheads, high delivery and a passion for delivering fame.
We work with clients to build planning frameworks, advising which media they should use, when and how.
Throughout the process we’re impartial, transparent and work as if our clients’ media budgets were our own.
We never over promise but we always over deliver.
*“If I were starting an agency now I would go back to the future. I would make it strategic and creative and I would insert media alongside it.”
