I spent 15+ years as a CMO and Marketing Director for other companies before I went Bald. I lost my hair – but found my calling:

Leading a creative agency that builds unapologetically bold ideas for brands with big (hairy) audacious goals. 

With emotion, insight, and imagination, we Baldly take you where no brand has gone before.

Brands go Bald because:

❌ Full marketing teams are expensive to staff in-house
❌ Finding reliable freelancers takes a ton of trial and error with high turnover
❌ Companies need fresh takes from people who can see the forest for the trees
❌ Average agencies burn businesses with cookie-cutter processes and soulless results

What Bald does different:

✅ Treat clients like partners and collaborate
✅ Operate as an immediate extension of your in-house creative
✅ Provide golden trifecta of strategy, creative, and marketing under one roof

Bald’s team of world-class branding experts, designers, strategists, and marketers have worked with brands like Tesla, Audi, Coca Cola, Under Armour, HP, and Volkswagen. 

Between us, we’ve directed Super Bowl ads, won 9 Cannes Lions, 19 Loerie awards, Best ad on TV awards, and more…

Here’s what we offer:
Brand strategy
Brand identity
Brand marketing
Brand campaigns

We’re rulebreakers, misfits, free-thinkers, and future-dreamers.

With our unique process, we’ll help you go Baldly where no brand has gone before. 

Our magic method:
1️⃣ Research and discovery
2️⃣ Insights & pattern recognition
3️⃣ Brand definition
4️⃣ Brand expression
5️⃣ Brand distribution

It’s hard to see what makes your brand truly shine and stand out from the inside. Bald can shave your creative load and comb through the noise to wax smooth your bald spots.

Let your heart rule your head.
