TLM Agency
TLM lives to nurture fragile thoughts into phenomenal ideas. We are passionately committed to the power of creativity. But more than this we are about solutions. We create solutions that have the capacity to change people’s minds and connect with their hearts. We create solutions that make the little hairs on your body stand erect. We build on strong and vital ideas rather than a routine production line. We are small enough to still have conscience — and smart enough to matter. Our group is all about what is new, hot, and long lasting. We are about the passion a man has for football or a woman for her stilettos. *We are about love. In 2005 Jordan English Gross started the TLM Agency using a $50,000 retainer and a borrowed office. But He had a huge dream, to create an agency — a place where talented folks who love their craft could come together. Collaborate. Dream. Think Big. Foster love for products they love. In its first year of operation TLM launched a national web property and established a rockstar client list including Coke, Sears, Starbucks, Motorola, Microsoft, Nike, Tony and Guy, and Oregon State University. Today TLM serves clients in New York, Dallas, Portland, and Las Vegas. In 2008 the company launched TLM FreeLove, a subsidiary whose primary focus is with ventures where it invests time, manages, or holds ownership. Most recently TLM became the creative force behind Saber Seven, Inc. — a technology start up company it has founded with the Coyne Brothers’ angel capital fund and a series of high energy entrepreneurs. The Love Makers currently plan on rolling out three additional strategic start up ventures in the next five years.
Saber Seven
Saber Seven is a social media company dedicated to the power of dreams.

From where you are now to the fulfillment of your dreams. A little girl named Dorthy followed that road with a feisty dog and a pair of borrowed shoes. She had big technically dreams in a black and white world. Saber Seven is building an interactive yellow brick road that will enable human emotions, connect congruent dreamers, and harness the power of each individual’s full human potential. Our products network like minded dreamers of all kinds and help them discover what Dorthy and her friends did. The fulfillment of your dreams is already in you.

We had a dream — to help other people achieve their dreams. And in offering free access to simple, intuitive web-based tools for converting dreams to reality — tools that the founders have very effectively used themselves — they are manifesting their dream: building Saber Seven as a premiere social media company. In mid July 07, the company opened a live work-live incubator in New York City, and completed the initial architecture of its technology. Saber Seven expects to conduct a private beta test in the summer of 2008; and then launch a controlled, public beta in the fall, followed by a creeping public launch in late 2008/early 2009. During 2008, the company will develop relationships with key partners, up-staff with key executive, marketing, sales, legal, HR, technical, programming, and customer service personnel, and likely open a Technical Epicenter in Tahoe, Nevada.
