Busy Corner

I've been watching Global Advisory since their formation, and I am yet to see another creative agency that thinks about how people shop, consume, and produce culture this critically.

I've been in and out on Gymnasium and their whole "short video is the next television" for a couple of years, and finally decided that no one is thinking about short video as deeply as Adam Faze.

You may know them as the creative agency behind Brat, I know them as the creative agency behind Perfectly Imperfect's visual identity and Puppets and Puppets rebrand. Either way - their work is phenomenal and cuts through the noise like nothing else.

If you are a brand with a special purpose, there is no one quite like No. 29 to tell the story of your brand. I love this press trip they organized for Baserange and this one for Mwani Zanzibar.

If you are a tech company or an investment fund that's looking to refresh your newsletter and other content, Maya and Eliza are some of the smartest people in the biz. I had a privilege to work with Maya early in my career and I can confidently say that she is one of the smartest, kindest people I know.

After dealing with hundreds of talent managers in my influencer marketing stint, I decided that DBA is the only agency for full-time influencers that's worth signing to.

If I had a bar or a restaurant, this is where I'd go for merch.

The content studio behind What's Poppin, Subway Oracle, and more. Everything about them screams "we make TikToks" but sometimes that's what you need.

Whenever I look at the comments under some niche, weird post on IG, odds are David is there. He knows what's up. He also does comms for my favorite brand to watch right now - Hodakova.

They write words for Kosas, Reformation, A24, and Rhode. Here is their deck.

I have no idea how you could possibly get on the Many Forms talent roster but here is the BTS of how they work.

Assembly does not consult on merch design but production-wise, they are the best in the biz. Assembly's parent company Rovo has been making shirts, jeans, and hoodies for Stussy and Supreme for a decace, and you can learn more about their philosophy here.

Gabrielle Katz does comms and PR for Maison Kitsune, Edie Parker, Doen, and Rimowa, and comes with the highest recommendation from Puck's Lauren Sherman.

I know Loop from these really nice founder videos they shot for Capital but they've worked with everyone from Duolingo to A24 since.

Dana Dang and her team are probably the reason why you've heard of Dedcool, Starface, Futurewise, Canopy, and many other DTC brands.
