About AE Marketing Group
Our company began inside a rehabbed walk-in closet in Chicago and now our boutique advises businesses around the world on strategy, media, design, marketing, and co-creation. AE Marketing Group’s performance is at the top of our industry in terms of growth, customer success, and customer longevity.
We attribute this consistent performance to our philosophy that a brand is not a creative function, but rather an enterprise-wide business function.
Our customers’ success and AE Marketing Group’s expertise have been featured by Inc., Forbes, Branding Magazine, Ad Age, The American Marketing Association, Modern Healthcare, Buzzssumo, and more.
AE Marketing Group was named a “Top 100 Content Marketer in the World,” and our Brand Lab Series™ Podcast won “Top Business and Technology Podcast” by The Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts.
We are 100% customer-funded, a 3x Inc. 5000 Winner (the prestigious list of America’s fastest-growing private companies), a Goldman Sachs 10K, and 1871 alumni (world’s #1 ranked business incubator).
AE Marketing Group’s sales increased 434% last year, and we have been profitable for 15 consecutive years. We reinvest that profit in our employees, our customers’ local economies, and more than 48 local, national, and global non-profits through our social entrepreneurship and corporate philanthropy.
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, we established the Small Business Big Impact Fund to help our peers during an unprecedented time. More than 75% of the grants went to women and minority-owned businesses.
