GKV, briefly
We’re from Baltimore. The Orioles are our team. Therefore, we hate the Yankees. For us, it’s elemental, like air… or eating crabs. We hate the Yankees because they can always write a bigger check. Which is also the market reality for most of our clients, routinely outspent by bigger, better-funded competitors. So, to the category number twos, threes, sevens, eights, to the new and barely visible, we’re pleased to meet you.
GKV has been helping challenger brands succeed for 35 years. Our mission is to help you beat the Yankees.
