Creativity is NOT a Commodity!™

ABOUT US

Ok, at first glance, you may say we're a strange, odd, weird bunch of misfits and rebels. And we'd say thanks for noticing.
 
We create unforgettable creative work that engages customers for our clients. 
 
If you want to blend in with the media landscape like the "common-camouflage" of others in your industry?

It's simple: We... Listen. Analyze. Disrupt. Engage. Repeat.   
 
Be Different... Get Results!  Join the Circus!

BMC Brand

 

Thinking like a brand is quite different than thinking like a business. 
Business sells tangibles. Brands create the intangibles.
Small difference but huge when it comes to understanding the power of a brand.

 

LISTEN.  
Gather information. Identify trends.
Learn your wants, needs and goals.
Find the consumer emotional buttons and understand their behavior.

 

ANALYZE. 
Attain Focus - Info without insight is useless.
Research without comprehension is deadly.
We dig, think, and re-think to find a single-minded big-brand idea.

 

DISRUPT. 
Grab Attention. We take the big brand idea and apply it to every consumer touch point. 
We then build it out, creating simple, intrusive and relevant emotional ideas.

 

ENGAGE.
Brand messages built-to-relate that "consumer connectivity" is what is is all about. 

We believe in strong consumer relations and financial gain goes hand-in-hand.
Every step of the process has already built in its next step.
Together, all paths lead to the ongoing goals of driving the business forward. 

 

REPEAT.

Measure. Monitor. Modify. And do it again... Because the Brand with the Most Friends Wins!

 

Let's build or re-stage your brand. Give us a call (630) 892-7700
