Mosaic is a large-scale agency (subsidiary of Acosta Group) with 2,000+ employees focused primarily on Fortune 500 clients. AirFresh provides direct senior leadership access, lower minimums, GPS check-in technology, and transparent published pricing that Mosaic does not offer.

Is Air Fresh Marketing a good alternative to Mosaic for smaller brands?

Absolutely. While Mosaic primarily serves Fortune 500 companies with high minimum project sizes ($25K+), Air Fresh Marketing works with brands of all sizes. Our flexible minimums, published pricing starting at $25/hr, and dedicated account management make us an ideal choice for growing brands that want enterprise-level experiential marketing without enterprise-level budgets.

What technology does AirFresh use that Mosaic does not?

Air Fresh Marketing uses proprietary GPS check-in verification to confirm staff arrival, mandatory video training with certification to ensure brand knowledge, and real-time reporting dashboards that give clients visibility into every activation. While Mosaic has enterprise systems, they do not offer the same level of transparent, client-facing real-time accountability tools.
