Food and Beverage Design is near to the heart of any designer who loves great food and beverage pairings. Its even closer if your significant other is a master chef that pairs great foods and beverages with every course. So creating great brand or creative experiences for this industry is very special to me.
From November 2006 - August 2008, I had the pleasure of being the lead creative source for one of Atlanta’s leading Food and Beverage agencies.
IMI Agency is a 20 plus year, on and off premise marketing agency. Specializing in F&B beverage programs and marketing.
I continue to do consultant design work for creative initiatives in the F&B industry.

Brand Engagement
We map the touchpoints your business has with its key stakeholders and create relevant, unique and compelling customer experiences. We work with your team to make the case for change inside your organization and equip and motivate employees to understand your strategy and actually deliver on it - in a fun and engaging way.
Brand Management
We then set your organization up to be brand savvy for the long term, weaving it into your culture and the way you do business.
What We Believe
• We believe your brand is your reputation. It is the promise that you make and, therefore, the promise that you must always keep
• It is the expectations people have about you before they do business with you, and the experiences they have when they do, that form your reputation
• You can proactively manage your reputation by ensuring the experience they have with you — your communications, behaviors and actions — are consistent with what you want your reputation to be
• It is not what you say about yourself, but the stories that others tell about you
• Your brand is the "DNA" of your business. Reaching full business potential means fully aligning and integrating the brand promise with all aspects of business operations
• The brand is about creating and living a common vision for the future — becoming a company on a "brand mission" that inspires and guides behavior and performance
