Nahil Communications Group Formed
Agency principals apply more than 50 years of marketing communications experience
HINGHAM and EAST DENNIS, Mass., January 6, 2003 – Joseph C. Nahil and Christopher M. Nahil today announced the official launch of Nahil Communications Group (NCG), an agency that provides marketing communications analysis, advice and action to client companies of all sizes and in several arenas. NCG’s founders and principals deliver to clients more than 50 years of combined experience that has been earned while serving companies in industries such as technology (hardware, software, Internet and consumer), non-profit, business services, hospitality, law, higher education and healthcare.
“We view each client engagement as unique, each set of problems and concerns as distinct. After rigorous analysis of the ‘state of play,’ we then develop marketing communications solutions that are most relevant and will have the greatest impact on the client’s business. NCG deploys its expertise across all marketing communications disciplines and mediums to get the job done,” said Joseph C. Nahil, co-principal, Nahil Communications Group.
Charter Clients
NCG’s initial client engagements include, Nixon Peabody, a law firm with offices across the country; The Templeton Foundation, a nonprofit foundation chartered with exploring the nexus between science and spirituality; Warren-Impact, a marketing communications and promotional product developer; Watershed Networks, a telecommunication company, and the British American Business Council of New England, an international trade and investment group. These client programs run the gamut from general marketing consulting, to public relations, to direct mail, to Web site and traditional media copywriting.
“We work hard to earn the reputation as a trusted advisor to our clients and their businesses,” said Christopher M. Nahil, co-principal, Nahil Communications Group. “The fact that we are an independent, family-run business whose highly experienced principals deliver the most hands-on work makes us unique in this market. At the same time, the fact that we’re easy to work with and like to have some fun on the job is appealing to many client organizations.”
