Who We are


 

Dalmath Associates, Inc. provides integrated marketing communications services to help businesses achieve their objectives, be competitive and succeed.

The firm was founded in 1996 by Gabe Dalmath, 30-year news anchor for WHEC TV (NBC), and Jean Dalmath. Today the firm is a 100% women-owned family business led by Jean Dalmath and Amanda Antinore.

Our expertise extends to multiple sectors including business-to-business, cultural arts, education, financial services, healthcare, music and entertainment, technology, retail, sports and the not-for-profit sectors.

The services we provide include strategic communications planning, public relations, reputation/crisis management, publications, advertising, social media management, event management, digital marketing, web development, and brand strategy.

We are experienced in successfully navigating difficult complex issues that may have a major impact on reputation, revenues, fundraising and other key performance metrics.

Our special event capabilities – from press conferences to media receptions to unique and creative theme-oriented events – reinforce our clients’ key messaging and brand value and capture media and public awareness.

Our Approach – Strong Stories and Strong Relationships

Clients come to us because they want to solve problems. They want to increase awareness and understanding for who they are and what they do. They want to earn and retain consumer loyalty. They want their stories told.

We begin by gaining a deep understanding of our clients’ businesses and objectives – where they’ve been and where they want to go. We view the relationship as a partnership – looking out for your interests and opportunities.

We go above and beyond, looking for the right avenues, unique angles, new approaches and opportunities to tell and extend our clients’ stories and shine the spotlight on issues that are important and resonate to their target audiences.

Throughout our more than 30 years of working with the media, we take pride in building strong relationships with journalists and understanding their needs.

Your Reputation is Our Reputation

We have built a trusted reputation that our clients can count on – for accessibility, attention to detail, accuracy, and follow-through.
