Descriptiontext

MTM Choice, LLC is a privately held, founder-led holding entity organized as an independent network of specialist marketing and communications agencies, established in 2017 by CEO Alexei D. Orlov and headquartered at 234 Fifth Avenue, New York. The company serves 160+ enterprise clients across both business and cultural sectors globally, delivering services through approximately 100 employees across offices in New York, Los Angeles, London, Milan, and Shanghai. MTM operates as a federation of non-competing but complementary agencies rather than a single integrated firm: Local Projects provides experience design for museums, performing arts, libraries, and governmental institutions; Camron provides global communications and PR with a design-oriented positioning; Nomology operates a brand-optimized video and connected-TV (CTV) advertising platform offering media optimization technology; and Sub Rosa contributes strategic design capabilities. The network's service portfolio spans brand service design, global communications, experience design, digital and social engagement, media optimization, content production (including 360 video, AR, VR, 3D, and immersive experiences), and experiential marketing.

MTM's underlying technology footprint centers on Nomology's proprietary media optimization platform, which provides contextually relevant, brand-safe media placements for video and CTV advertising. Beyond Nomology, MTM describes itself as a 'technology-enabled creativity platform' but provides limited technical detail on integration architecture, data assets, or productized SaaS components — the bulk of technology is deployed in service of bespoke creative and experiential client engagements rather than as standalone software products.

The business model is professional services: revenue is generated through agency retainers and project-based engagements with enterprise clients, with pricing not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales via the network agencies' regional offices, supported by earned media (Fast Company, Forbes, AdAge coverage of network projects) and an extensive portfolio of design industry awards including Cooper Hewitt National Design Award, Webby Gold, AIGA Gold, Cannes Lions Gold Lion, and CMO of the Year recognition. Customer segmentation is horizontal, targeting global enterprise brands as the primary segment and cultural institutions as a secondary segment. Since its founding, MTM has executed four acquisitions (Sub Rosa and NOM in 2017; Camron PR in 2018; Local Projects in 2019), all for undisclosed amounts, signaling a roll-up strategy to assemble a multi-disciplinary global creative network.
