About
At RPA, we have a simple tenet we live and work by: Respect & Results.
RPA is first and foremost a culture of respect—respect for our people, our clients, our clients’ customers, the audience, and the work.
The way we go about creating work for our clients is through and with respect. That makes us true growth partners. We respect our clients and make their goals our goals. Yes, our work is memorable and breakthrough, but what’s most important is that it’s effective. That it grows our clients’ business and directly leads to real, tangible business results.
We feel that a genuine interest in people and their well-being is far too rare in ad agencies. And while other agencies claim to be interested in results, rarely are they focused on metrics that matter. Those real business results, the sort that matter to a board of directors and a company’s bottom line, are our specialty.
We don’t do this for awards or fame or the short-term. Our bottom line is yours.
