What Maslow Media Group does

Maslow Media Group is an integrated workforce solutions company founded in 1988 and headquartered in Clarksburg, Maryland, operating four interlocking service lines: executive and temporary staffing across IT, marketing/creative, and media production roles; Employer of Record (EOR) services spanning all US states; managed services that operate as embedded workforce administration layers for enterprise clients; and end-to-end multimedia production services from script-to-screen including camera crews, post-production, animation, and live broadcasting. The company's core asset is a global network of 12,000+ vetted media professionals, including security-cleared crew credentialed for Capitol Hill, Pentagon, and White House engagements, and SAG-AFTRA signatory paymaster capabilities. Underlying technology is operations-oriented rather than proprietary: an internal database of pre-qualified talent, ADP workforce management portal integration for payroll and HR administration, and production management workflows; no proprietary platform, AI/ML systems, patents, or technology IP are disclosed.

The business model is enterprise services-led with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. Revenue is generated through professional services fees on temporary and permanent placements, EOR and payroll service fees bundled with workforce administration, ongoing managed services contracts delivered as embedded operating layers with semi-annual reporting, and project-based multimedia production work. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales and inside sales targeting Fortune 100 corporations, financial institutions, government agencies, and broadcasting/multimedia companies, with no SMB or self-serve channel. Geographic reach spans all US states via the EOR infrastructure and international production deployment across 14+ countries. Capital structure has been lightly funded, with a single disclosed $500,000 funding round in 2019 and a 2019 acquisition of Intelligent Quality Solutions; a 2026 share-settlement with Reliability Inc. transferring 253,292,210 Maslow shares introduces material corporate complexity around ownership and capitalization that warrants further diligence.
