Discover the power of 1

Founded in 1989, mf.1 is a full-service advertising company, specializing in integrated sales and marketing solutions.

Our goal is no secret: we’re in this business to help clients succeed. We’ve got our eyes locked on success because we know how it feels to be on the client side of the boardroom table. Our partners started out there! This experience shaped our process. We collaborate with clients to produce solutions that support the bottom line. We know that when personalities click, when we are honest and truly listen, that’s when the magic happens.

A mixed-bag of client work

As for a particular type of client, our specialty is: we don’t have one. Every day is different for us, and we like it that way. Our employees thrive in this kind of environment. Our large and diverse client list has allowed us to gain expertise in a broad range of industries including travel and tourism, agriculture, financial services, health care, government, municipal, non-profit, education, transportation and consumer products.

People first

Our team is quickly growing with some of Winnipeg’s most creative, innovative, diverse, and all-out wacky individuals. We employ account executives, graphic designers, developers, writers, illustrators, and production experts. We also have an in-house media specialist responsible for both online and offline media buys in Canada, the US and around the world.

Parlez-vous français?

Why yes we do. We have years of experience delivering bilingual creative communications solutions to the French community. We create effective bilingual campaigns no matter what the purpose or the audience. We take pride in being able to offer this service to our clients.
