KEY STRENGTHS: As a Business Agency, we bridge the best of a few different worlds. Integrated is the idea, and the objective is simple. Make work that drives the business. Work that’s relevant and scalable has positive ROI and moves people. You don’t get there without an understanding of the business, data, and audiences. Our ambition is to be the smartest solution for the smartest marketers on the planet. We look at everything through this lens, from whom we hire to work with and learn from. Our business and data-driven way of working has made us agile enough for whatever clients need, smart enough to approach brand problems as business problems first, while always being rooted in a solid, integrated foundation, fostering a way of collaborating that is unmatched by our peers.

Data & Tech: We tap our proprietary tools and team of engineers to leverage the latest in Ad Tech and Mar Tech technology; First-party Data Strategy; AI/ML Model Creation.

Our business is grounded in data – we lead with science. Unlike most agencies, we are ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certified, which means we can safely and securely handle first-party data, including HIPAA-sensitive information. We also have invested in and built our own marketing tech stack made of proprietary offerings and platforms, namely ASK GALE and ALCHEMY, to help us get to insights that drive business outcomes. Once we’ve made sense of the data, our creative and media teams work hand in hand with our data scientists to help us execute systematically.

ASK GALE is our consumer research capability. When clients want to measure or understand customer behavior that isn’t tracked or apparent in their own data, custom research from ASK GALE can fill in the critical gaps. We enrich first-party data with customer surveys to capture key variables like demographics, perceptions, attitudes, needs, interests, etc. Then, we reach a network of third-party survey panelists of over 5M Americans, ask specific questions to make decisions with confidence. Then we combine both qualitative and quantitative research to understand the drivers and the barriers to behaviors we want to change.

ALCHEMY is our Gartner-ranked Customer Data Platform (CDP) that rapidly organizes a brand’s first-party data, including a customer’s transactions, interactions, and behaviors. We can also enrich this information with third-party content, like location and census data, to develop a more robust customer view. This data (because everyone has data) provides marketers with a 360-degree view that can be used to speak to customers in the most relevant way.

If they even have access to client data, most agencies rely on third- party platforms to surface revealing data insights. That’s slow, time consuming, and expensive. Having our own research and data tools together allows us to answer quickly and intelligently some of our client’s most complex marketing problems.
