The agency integrates with platforms like YouScan for ORM monitoring, Yandex.Market for e-commerce activations, and Russian marketplaces (Ozon, Perekrestok, Utkonos) for promotional campaigns.

Family operates a professional services model with project-based, quote-based pricing for enterprise clients and direct sales engagement. GTM is sales-led, targeting large brand CMOs and marketing directors across automotive, FMCG, and retail verticals. The team is structured in-house across creative, technology, strategy, and production, with multiple Group Heads, Creative/Art Directors, an R&D Director, a CPO, and a Head of Strategy & Analytics.
