We're not afraid to ask
"what if" and "why not"
We've succeeded in a business where others often fail. That's
why many S&A clients work with us for decades.
Strong individuals are stronger together
The sum of our unique interests combined with individual expertise is what makes S&A a strategic and creative powerhouse. We're business leaders. Creative thinkers. Bright minds who bring varied perspectives and inspiration to the table.
Teams that connect business needs
with creative solutions
Our client service commitment: Cultivating rock-solid partnerships built on deep expertise and clear, thoughtful communication. We’re problem-solvers who delve deep into the unique influences of a brand’s industry, product category, people and history to understand the challenges and generate the best possible solutions. By thinking both big and small, we deliver impactful strategies that are executed within real timelines and budgets.
It’s more than words. Our content specialists help brands share valuable, persuasive and (yes) entertaining information that will educate and engage target audiences. With a passion for storytelling, we go beyond the obvious to uncover the compelling. From public relations to digital, social, print and everything in between, content is more than king at S&A; it’s the cornerstone to our unique Brand Whispering® approach.
The marketing world is noisy and cluttered. That’s why we channel our exuberant imaginations and honed skills into crafting breakthrough creative that cannot be ignored. Always nimble, we adapt to provide creative executions that provide
new ways to meet a brand’s needs. With a solid foundation in traditional design, we stay ahead of emerging technologies in the digital space to push brands—and
ourselves—forward.
Our S&A values
To drive your business and brand, we live
and work by these core values.
Trust
Trust must be built over time and can be lost in an instant. We seek to build it every day. With each other. With our clients. With our business partners.
Respect
What you say matters. When you say it matters more. How you say it matters most. But listening is always the first step toward respect.
Passion
We take everything to the extreme. We become experts in our clients’ businesses. We care deeply about each other, our work and our clients.
Accountability
We believe in holding ourselves accountable. To our mission. To each other. To our clients’ businesses.
