Company Description

There is no substitute for a big, different, organising idea. An idea that disrupts. An idea that moves you. And an idea that zags when the world zigs. It enhances the value of the brand, and it grows our clients’ business.

And today, advertising is just one way to communicate an idea. Today a brand is only as strong as its weakest touchpoint. That’s why we apply the same level of BBH thinking, the same amount of care, craft and creative magic to the entire customer experience. We do this to create not just a connected and consistent customer journey, but an extraordinary one.

In practice, in the direct arm of BBH, this means we help our clients attract new customers, convert more customers and grow the value of existing customers. We like to work with people who are different. Our enduring commitment to difference is best embodied by The
Black Sheep. It represents our businesses, our culture and the people who work here.
