The beginning
It all started with a phone call to our founder back in January 2014 from the CEO of an FMCG multinational. He was asking for help in creating a story basket for the work they do with communities, that could be put out to create awareness and public support in meeting their advocacy goals. They also had to be powerful enough to beat the PR news cycle. That was our first piece of business! Since then, we have been in the thick of things and loving every minute of it!
While we draw upon the collective experience of our founding members of nearly 45 years of strategy, insights and planning, we also work with some of the best in the industry including brilliant creative minds, authors, social media experts, PR and advertising partners to deliver on content and outreach
