We’re your alternative to more of the same.

When prospects tune out, “more of the same” is to blame: more of the same generic messages, in more of the same hollow jargon, through more of the same mundane narratives they've heard before.

It takes a fiercely distinct message to crack a hotly contested market; we'll help you craft one and build it out. We'll bring to your project everything we've learned from every leader we've ever served, from Oracle's Larry Ellison to PepsiCo's Indra Nooyi to Deloitte's Michael Raynor — all to make you appreciably better at nurturing prospects, closing buyers, cultivating partners, pursuing investors, and energizing your own teams.

Welcome to bVIVID, producer of fiercely distinct messaging and content.

Your alternative to more of the same.

I'm David Gilman. I run bVIVID.

Known for messaging and content that is crisp, smart, and exquisitely on point, I equip companies to spark response from key constituents: prospects, customers, analysts, investors, partners, and employees.

My career began at The New York Times, where I wrote for the Sunday edition. From there I moved into corporate and marketing communications through successive roles at Dun & Bradstreet, KPMG, and PepsiCo. Today I continue to traverse verticals from Enterprise Tech to WealthTech, MedTech to EdTech, Consumer IoT to Industrial IoT, CPG to Cybersecurity, and more.

I went to Stony Brook University, where I was editor-in-chief of the campus newspaper and won the Buskin Prize for Journalism, sponsored by Newsday. A grateful father of four, I run five miles a day and do some of my best work between miles two and five.
