About TSG

Approach

The Salak Group understands that the world doesn’t want for random information, sound bites, data, documents and meaningless activities. It is, however, desperate for insight and engagement. Companies, organizations and individuals that understand this difference are more effective at defining and delivering their message, gaining a competitive advantage, advancing strategic aims and achieving business goals.

The Salak Group helps clients gain this crucial advantage by relying on research, insights and expertise to develop and execute integrated communications programs that save money and generate results. Clients enjoy a high return on their communications investment because our programs focus on their short- and long-term needs. They are not used to simply launch busywork. The TSG model is appropriate for all companies regardless of size because it builds effective outreach efforts based on a client’s aims and their available resources.

Team

The Salak Group’s ability to deliver results stems from its team of senior communications professionals and associates. Our staff has both the technical expertise and the real world experience to help clients identify needs, define their goals and build and execute cost-efficient programs that are results driven.
