drive positive societal change
why
Mash started in 2018 with a simple purpose…to drive positive societal change.
We believe our work as communicators is a service to enable this positive societal change, not just another job.
We support growing businesses providing paychecks to families and tax revenues for government programs.
We support non-profits to help them raise funding and help more people.
We do far more than run amazing ads and campaigns…we serve people and drive positive societal change.
The “Triple A” Mash Way: Our Secret Sauce
The secret to the outstanding results we get for our clients is based on establishing a strong weekly rhythm with 3 components: advising, acting, and adjusting.
Advising: Ongoing strategy and advice, like a marketing quarterback calling the plays
Acting: Setting tight deadlines and taking action to produce creative to tell your story
Adjusting: Analyzing data/results and adjusting constantly
Too many big agencies provide an expensive one-time strategy document as the marketing gospel for your organization or launch one campaign hoping it works forever.
But that’s not how marketing works today. Platforms and issues change constantly and we must do the same.
Plus, with social media, there’s instant feedback that informs adjustments so we can move faster.
We also encourage direct access to our creatives (designers, video producers, copywriters, etc) for a faster working relationship, rather than playing telephone through layers of account managers.
It’s different...but it’s why we get different results.
It’s all part of our vision to disrupt the big bloated agency model with FAST, BOLD communications around the world.
