Hi. We’re Elma and Greg.
After years in PR, advertising, and digital/social, two things became clear to us: small, collaborative teams of focused people can move mountains and simplicity can be a secret weapon. When both are properly applied, creativity works harder, brands grow faster, and success comes more naturally.
Our brand studio is built on these two unshakable beliefs. We’re deliberately small and stay hands-on for every project while bringing in expertise from a select group as needed. And simplicity is the driving force behind the way we run our business, the way we work, and the things we make with our clients.
If you have a project you’d like to discuss or if you’d like to know more about Brief, let’s chat.
Our Approach
Create Fast
Your vendors should be able to work at the cadence your world demands. We’re proud of our ability to deliver highly crafted work with speed.
Challenge The Channel
Why social when an activation, partnership or something else could work harder? Wherever possible, we stay broad before going narrow.
Stay Small
When the time comes to scale an idea, we bring in expertise from a select group of partners. Until then, we’re it.
We are Brief
