About Us
Brown Farmer Media Group (BFMG) is a strategic communications and creative agency that blends bold storytelling, cultural fluency, and data-informed strategy to move audiences—and results. With deep roots in television production and journalism, we bring a newsroom mindset to brand narratives, delivering timely, relevant, and high-impact campaigns across digital, broadcast, and live platforms.
What sets us apart is our community-centered approach—we don’t speak to audiences, we speak with them. We specialize in reaching underrepresented and hard-to-engage communities with authenticity and empathy. Our team reflects the diversity of the audiences we serve, giving us an edge in crafting campaigns that resonate and convert.
We lead with GRACE: Growth, Responsibility, Authenticity, Creativity, and Excellence. Whether it’s launching a public service campaign, producing a multi-city video series, or managing influencer activations, BFMG offers not just services—but strategic partnership with purpose.
"Brown Farmer Media Group grows and manages relationships while making premium connections invaluable."
