The A Group

Based in Brentwood, Tennessee, The A Group is a small marketing and technology agency, founded in 2001 by Maurilio Amorim, that works with businesses, nonprofits, ministries, and churches. Its client focus centers on purpose-driven organizations looking to expand their reach, grow donor or customer relationships, or move through transitions such as rebranding, new leadership, or new locations. The team, described as writers, designers, developers, and strategists, positions itself around helping organizations that feel stuck on a plateau or are launching something new find a path to growth. Services include brand strategy and development, brand messaging, website development, marketing strategy, digital marketing, creative services, advertising, software development, and market research, alongside the declared capabilities of SEO, PPC, social media marketing, content marketing, graphic design, and video production. Work is organized around what the agency calls its GAST Framework, used as a structured process to guide clients from initial problem diagnosis toward defined goals such as clearer storytelling, wider audience reach, donor cultivation, product launches, or expansion into new markets. Engagements typically begin with a discovery call to assess an organization's situation before determining which combination of branding, marketing, and technology services applies.
