The Firm
Since its founding in 1995, Gildea Communications has been providing insightful,
results-oriented marketing services to the high-tech, financial services and non-profit
sectors. Our mission is to make a significant, positive difference in the fortunes of
every client we work with. We believe that the true value of any consulting firm you work
with is to provide an independent perspective from a vantage point outside of the
constraints of day-to-day operations. Most importantly, we develop an in-depth
understanding of the details of your business which assures that every marketing dollar
invested aligns with the results you want to achieve.
Gildea Communications takes a comprehensive approach to the marketing process.
We believe that successful marketing programs are closely linked to an organization’s
new business generation, operational, and product development processes. Our approach
is to base programs on insightful analysis and then to apply a creative spark which makes
customers and prospects take notice.
