About The MX Group

We Are a B2B Agency. Our Mission Is to Impact the Marketplace for Companies That Impact the World.

Our clients make things that matter. To people, industries and economies.
Our people do work that drives growth by opening minds and challenging thinking.
Our results are only as good as our relationships, so that’s our #1 focus.
Our agency was born in 1989, which we believe inspired Taylor Swift’s Grammy-winning album.
Our office is in Chicagoland, but our people add perspectives from every U.S. region.
Our partners make us global.
Our pets keep us sane.

Why B2B?

We believe there’s no more exciting, important, challenging or timely work to be done in marketing and advertising.

Executive Leadership Team

Tony Riley

President and CEO

Tony is focused on growth with a bias for action. Might have something to do with his time in the military (USMC), but it’s worked out well for every company he’s helped move forward, from startups to Fortune 100s.

James Meyers

SVP Managing Director, Content Marketing

Jim’s a founder. In 1994 he created Imagination, an award-winning, Chicago-based content marketing agency that’s now part of MX. An inveterate innovator, Jim helps companies thrive by establishing credibility in the marketplace.

Emily Kleist

VP Executive Creative Director
