About BMG
Organization History
Berg Marketing Group (BMG) was founded in 1995 by Terry Berg as a sales agency servicing the consumer product goods (CPG) industry in the Great Lakes Region.
Terry’s strong financial background, involvement early on in his career with private equity, helped expand the scale and scope of BMG’s business transforming the company from a regional sales agency to a full-service international sales, marketing and operations company.
BMG has produced sales in excess of $250 million for 8 straight years.Today BMG is keenly focused on achieving the 4 goals below for all of our client – partners .
- Generating predictable and sustainable free cash flow
- Achieving memorable and sustainable brand awareness while at the same time delivering profitable sales
- Creating an indelible brand connection with the consumer on a broad-based and leverageable brand platform
- Creating long-term asset value
- We believe the above four goals are tantamount to establishing an ongoing brand driven CPG enterprise.
