A creative agency for bold brands

This January is an independent creative agency in Washington, DC, building category challengers into household names. We started in January 2020, and we've grown every year since. Our creative, design, production, account and media teams sit side by side, which means strategy turns into things people actually notice: names that stick, mascots people get attached to, campaigns that punch well above their budget. Clients call us when they've outgrown their MVP brand, or when a competitor has deeper pockets and our work needs to earn attention instead of buying it. That approach moved ticket sales 36% for the International Spy Museum, lifted awareness 32% for ZURU's Gumi Yum Surprise, and made us the US agency of record for the Lufthansa Group. We're small on purpose, independent, and fairly convinced the golden age of advertising isn't over, it just...different.

Our Story

This January is the time of year when everything is possible. We build brands for companies that can't buy their way to attention and have to earn it instead, which means the work has to be sharper, stranger, and more memorable than whatever the category leader is running. We've done it for airlines, museums, candy, dog treats, diapers, and vitamins. Our ambition isn't to be the biggest, but to be good people who are good to each other and make the best work of our lives.

What Sets Us Apart

Integrated by design

Creative, design, production, account, and media sit side by side on every project. Media strategy shapes the concept, and vice versa, which means our creative is tailor-built for its platforms. And our media plans go beyond the basic 3 platforms.

Built for challenger budgets

We're set up to deliver broadcast-quality work at a fraction of what the holding companies spend getting there. Clients with $250-400K in production budgets come to us for a full integrated campaign, and we deliver best in class results.

We're passionate about brand mascots

We build brand worlds and mascots that earn emotional attachment, not just recognition. Harriet the gummy-laying hen, Habbie the spokes-vitamin, and Scuzz the trash raccoon all started as strategy documents and ended up as things people follow, buy merchandise of, and ask for by name.
