Every project at Brains is a unique journey. We collaborate closely with each client, shaping our services around your specific goals and the impact you're looking to achieve. Here's a snapshot of the areas we commonly explore together. Remember, we understand that modern brands have unique and evolving needs, so our services are designed to adjust accordingly.
We work side by side with our colleagues at Mass Culture who are experts at Media Planning and Performance Marketing.
What unfolds when our brains sync with yours? Structure, flexibility and a whole lot of magic. To deliver quality creative, we’ll learn how to collaborate effectively on each unique project. We’re as proud of our team as we are of the work we put out into the world. Here’s a look at our approach:
We have team members from EST to PST and everything in between to meet your team's needs no matter where you are (yup, even international).
We’re not a**sholes and we don’t suffer a**holes. Life is just too short to work that way.
We don’t meet on Fridays. Why? Because flow matters. We reserve this time to allow our team to dig deep on transformative creative for greater impact.
From the jump, we’re your extended workbench. We want to see you win just as much as you do. We immerse ourselves in your brand and world to work with you on what’s truly best for your team.
We're a group of subject matter experts with big, bold ideas, regardless of title. Our team approaches each project with a fresh perspective to devise unexpected, creative solutions.
We’re collectors, chefs, parents, musicians, poets, florists, film buffs, and animal lovers who happen to look at the world a little differently. We seek inspiration in our day-to-day and bring all that back into our work.
Explore some of our recent collaborations, where we've teamed up with a variety of brands to transform creative visions into reality. These partnerships exemplify our dedication to crafting innovative solutions and achieving meaningful impact.
Brand incubator Launched.LA and celebrity co-founders Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard approached us to help them create a new, natural line of baby products. It would be sold as a retailer exclusive, along with a direct-to-consumer offering at HelloBello.com. In two years, we became the number one DTC diaper bundling brand, reached ~$200MM L52 Weeks Total MULO + DTC, were awarded Good Housekeeping’s #1 diaper, and our brand work was also awarded the Gold trophy for best strategic or creative development of a new brand from Transform Awards North America.
Together, with Tom Hanks and CAA’s Global Client Strategy division, we brought Hanx For Our Troops to life. Brains owned all branding, packaging web design and creative direction for the project. Since its 2022 holiday launch, we’ve increased the brand's social media presence to over 20K followers.
After gaining popularity in Europe, tonies set their sights on the US and hired Brains to guide strategy for the American brand launch in 2020. From in-store displays to an immersive takeover activation at FAO Schwarz at 30 Rockefeller, our whimsical design and strategy resulted in over $150MM in US revenue and 40% increase in annual purchases. We collaborated again in 2023 to develop their Discover Imagination campaign, an endeavor that took us back to our own childhoods.
In collaboration with founder Janice Gott, we created a world around a product that surprisingly didn’t exist–a discreet and mobile breast pump. At launch, muu was featured in Forbes and heralded by the likes of Meghan Trainor, Mandy Moore, Lauren Kennedy, Ashley Tisdale and What’s Gabby Cooking.
