Gilmore Marketing Concepts, Inc.

Chicago's GMCI Creative, which operates under the legal name Gilmore Marketing Concepts, Inc., handles marketing for businesses that want their campaigns to reach defined audiences in print and digital media. The firm calls its approach full service, so strategy, design, media, production and analytics are offered together and a client can work with one team rather than several. It says its aim is to help each business grow and prosper, and it describes its work as building an all-inclusive marketing environment designed to scale.

Web design with analytics and purchasing built in

The firm builds websites and describes its UX and UI design as award-winning. Each site is set up with full analytics, search engine optimization and digital purchase integration, so visits can be measured and orders taken from the same place where the business is promoted. Search visibility is treated as part of the build rather than as a separate task added later.

Paid social and search on Google, Facebook, TikTok and Snapchat

GMCI Creative lists certification with Google Ads and partner status with Facebook, TikTok and Snapchat. Its paid social and search work includes geofencing, which lets an advertiser target people within set locations, and the firm names search visibility optimization among its specialist areas. Campaigns are set against the target markets each client names.

Logos, service marks and brand style guides

Branding services include custom service mark and trademark design, logo design, brand style guides and catalogs. The firm presents these as the branding needs a company may bring, from the first logo through to the guide that keeps the look consistent across its materials.

Event concepts and media relations through influencers

For events, the firm handles the concept, design, advertising and management, with the client's return on investment set as the aim. Media and public relations work is carried out through relationships with media contacts and influencers, which the firm offers as a route to established audiences.

Video from influencer clips to live event coverage

Video output includes influencer videos, viral videos, grassroots social campaigns, video blogs, video display advertising and podcasts. The firm also facilitates live events that are shared on social media, so one event can supply material for several channels at once.

Search and generative engine optimization with campaign analytics

The search service combines search engine optimization with generative engine optimization, the work of making a brand findable in AI-generated answers as well as in conventional results. Analytics show which campaigns are working, and the firm says that this clarity is what turns marketing spend into results for its clients.

Brittain's car care businesses and Doctors of Physical Therapy

Brittain's Express Oil & Lube and Brittain's Car Wash appear on the client list, alongside Doctors of Physical Therapy. It reports that its work with these businesses has been aimed at widening their presence, improving return on investment and reaching the markets they target.

A full-service agency with a stated mission

The firm is based in Chicago, Illinois, and describes its mission as ending bad design one project at a time. Its credentials, listed across its material, cover Google Ads certification, partner status with three social platforms and expertise in geofencing and search, and its services are offered under the GMCI Creative name.
