Home/About us
Five decades of helping brands grow through accountable media, informed strategy, and measurable results.
Since Sydney Yallen founded InterMedia in 1974, the media landscape has transformed, and so have we.
Today, we bring together media, video, data, strategy, and proprietary AI-powered intelligence to help brands grow, while staying true to the principles that have guided us from the beginning: great people, trusted relationships, smart thinking, and an unwavering commitment to our clients’ success.

InterMedia has evolved alongside television, expanding its roots in direct response into an integrated agency spanning TV, streaming, digital, creative, and analytics.
We do what we say, communicate honestly and earn trust through our actions.
Our business is built on people. We invest in lasting relationships with our clients, partners and each other.
We stay media-agnostic, data-informed and focused on what works, building strategies around our clients’ objectives, not a predetermined channel or solution.
Strategy, media, buying, analytics and creative work together around one shared goal: making our clients successful.
Big or small, every client deserves smart thinking, attention and a team genuinely invested in their success.
Experience matters, but so does evolution. We keep learning, challenging assumptions and finding smarter ways to drive growth.
Deep media expertise and longstanding relationships, combined with modern data, technology and measurement.
We start with the business objective and build around the right combination of media, audience, opportunity and performance.
Our teams work together, not in silos, connecting strategy, execution, analytics and optimization.
We pair decades of marketplace relationships with senior-level attention, transparency and ownership of our clients’ results.
Ability is what you’re capable of doing.
Motivation determines what you do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.
