The Basics
CMS Marketing is one of Ireland's leading marketing agencies. Our starting point was in strategic below the line campaigns, events & brand activation; over the years we have explored new territory and expanded our team and experience so that we now offer a full 360 service across all channels. But our Event Management & Experiential beginnings ensure that our focus is always on accountability; engaging consumers to deliver real results.
We pride ourselves on being explorers. We are adventures, discoverers and inventors. We are always on the lookout for a new challenge, a new path through the everyday, a new view of the horizon. We are passionately curious and curiously creative. We treat every brief, no matter how big or small, as a chance to discover something different.
