Building and evolving brands

Hi, I'm John, Chief Creative Officer at Herman-Scheer, a strategic and creative brand consultancy. We believe the businesses that prioritize connection over transaction are the ones that succeed. 

Since 2010, Herman-Scheer has helped change the way businesses make people feel. We have big heart and daring instincts. A sunny disposition and assertive gait. 

I consider myself a people-people kind of person, enamored by how brands connect to people and how people connect to brands. I love working with businesses that—put simply—keep people healthy and happy.

My career journey has been about embracing the idea that friction makes fire. 

I believe in mixing the intuitive and familiar with the audacious and novel, creating a healthy tension to captivate and engage. This friction, this interplay of ideas, is where I believe brands find their true voice and distinctive edge.

Alongside Chapin, (The Herman to my Scheer), we’ve built an agency with a strong POV: great health and self-care brands create narratives and identities aimed at changing behaviors—experiences so compelling that customers stick with a product or service even before they see the tangible benefits.

If you're in the wellness industry looking to evolve your brand toward lasting impact, let’s talk shop.

John Scheer

When I was a 17 y/o senior in high school, our whole class got to do what was called a senior project, a month or so of real-world experience before graduation. 

I chose to intern at an advertising agency called Point To Point. 

I had two assignments while I was there...

The first was scanning all of their print ads from magazines into a digital database - tedious but oddly satisfying...

The second challenge was to select an ad from any magazine and come up with three alternative ideas that were better than what went to print, then pitch them to the entire agency.

I found a boring ad for a Cobra radar detector and gave it a shot...

I spent at least two weeks sketching my ideas onto paper, doing my best to illustrate, write, and learn Photoshop well enough to make it look as legit as possible...

Fast forward 20 years and Nano Banana Pro comes out...

As a way to learn and experiment with it, I decided to recreate my senior project.

It took me about 7.5 minutes to do, and in stark contrast to my shitty high school drawings, well...thumb through the carousel. 

Still processing what this all means, but the gap between idea and reality is becoming smaller and smaller...

Building and transforming the brands that make generations healthier.
