Grossman Marketing Group’s clients include athenahealth; the Boston Bruins and Boston Celtics; Brigham & Women’s Hospital; Columbia, Harvard and Tufts Universities; Hewlett-Packard; International Academy of Arts and Sciences (Emmy Awards); John Hancock; L.L. Bean; Massachusetts General Hospital; Novocure and Zipcar.
“[Premier Marketing Group’s] success and expertise in health and other business-related services is a perfect fit for us, and will complement our existing products and services, which also include full-service graphic design, a network of company-owned warehouses and production facilities and a dedicated technology team building best-in-class e-commerce programs for our clients,” said Ben Grossman, co-president of Grossman Marketing Group.
Mike Whitman, founder of Premier Marketing Group (PMG), said he is thrilled that his company is joining forces with “such a prestigious, well-established, growth-oriented company.” He said his client base, product line and service-oriented approach to customer relations will “dovetail nicely” with the Grossman team.
