nextMEDIA runs on a simple idea: small businesses deserve the same caliber of marketing strategy that Fortune 500 brands pay millions for. The driving force behind that standard is Carlos Ribero.





nextMEDIA opened in 1999, back when most owners had never heard the phrase internet marketing and the rest weren’t sure they believed in it. We helped them make the jump anyway. Over the years we worked with just about every kind of organization there is, from Fortune 100 household names you’d recognize to federal agencies, foreign conglomerates, and the corner store down the block.
In 2015 we made a deliberate choice. Small business owners were wearing so many hats and getting almost no real marketing help, the kind that runs from strategy all the way through implementation. So we became their marketing department. We still are.

Carlos Ribero, also a Partner and Chief Strategist at Inteligencia Research, led consumer insights for global brands including Corona, Model, Kraft Foods, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Dunkin' Donuts and others. His insight campaigns won back-to-back Ogilvy Advertising Research Awards, in 2013 and 2014.
We made a deliberate choice. Small business owners were juggling everything and getting almost no real marketing help, the kind that runs from strategy all the way through implementation. So we became their marketing department. We still are.
90% of our small business clients have stayed seven years or more, every review we've earned is five stars, and one ecommerce operation we manage grew 50% year over year for its first four years and holds steady 7% to 10% growth today.
Two principles have stayed constant through every version of this company: produce real results for clients, and stay transparent about how. We show our work.
The proof shows up in the numbers. 90% client retention past seven years, thousands of leads generated, every review at five stars, and one ecommerce operation we manage that grew 50% year over year for its first four years and holds steady 7% to 10% YoY growth today.

We never lock you in. Clients stay because the work earns it, and 90% of them stay seven years or more.

Every month we sit down with you and walk through what happened and why, instead of emailing a dashboard and disappearing.

Everything runs on The Momentum Machine: a deep look at your goals, your current marketing, and your competition, then a program we know we can execute and measure.
If your marketing feels scattered and the phone isn’t ringing the way it should, that’s a fixable problem. Tell us what’s going on and we’ll show you where the gaps are and what we’d do about them.
The driving force behind nextMEDIA is Carlos Ribero, a marketing strategist with more than two decades of experience building brands and driving growth for some of the largest companies in the world. He’s the reason the agency holds a big-brand standard: small business owners deserve the same caliber of strategy that Fortune 500 brands pay millions for.
It’s how Carlos describes his approach: combining hard data and consumer insight with creative strategy to turn marketing spend into measurable growth. The analysis tells you what’s true. The creative makes people act on it. Marketing Alchemy is using both together instead of picking one.
nextMEDIA was founded in 1999, in the early days of internet marketing. In 2015 the agency shifted to working exclusively with small businesses. Today 90% of its small business clients have stayed seven years or more, and every review the agency has earned is five stars.
Three things. The strategy comes from someone who has run insight and marketing for global brands. The agency connects that strategy to execution under one roof instead of handing you a plan and walking away. And it backs the work with no required contracts and a monthly review where results get explained in plain language.
