ABOUT TRACTION - Traction is a creative agency that is very good at uncovering insights about your customer and connecting them to the work we produce for your brand through branding, advertising/content and digital experiences. Insights are critical for producing work that drives business results because today's customer is not just harder to reach, they are actively taking steps to ignore your marketing. The reason Traction exists is to create work that people actually want to consume. Our core competencies are branding, advertising and web design. We have in-house capabilities for strategy, creative, media, web development and analytics. But what sets us apart is how we've created an integrated method of working that ensures ideas are always driven by insights. It's a formula that works. Over the past few years, Traction has been a 4-time finalist for iMedia Small Agency of the Year and has won Small Agency of the Year awards from both Advertising Age and the Business Marketing Association. We were proud to be named the #1 Creative Advertising Agency in the US by Agency Spotter in 2018.

ABOUT BOATHOUSE GROUP - Ad agencies are great at brand ideas, but are weak technically. Digital agencies are great at executing technically, but weak at brand ideas. We bring together both skill sets under one roof. No departmental silos, no separation of advertising and digital. We want the single-minded culture and creativity possible only by having highly conceptual people with different skill sets working together from the start. We learn the most by having both entrepreneurial and corporate clients. We help the smallest VC-funded companies be smarter, and help the largest Fortune 500 companies be more innovative. We invest in and bring together high-performing, forward-thinking, conceptual people. We look for brains and drive and often search in industries and specialties that fall outside of the norm. We test our instincts and learn the challenges of being accountable by investing in and launching stand-alone businesses and ideas. We shouldn’t spend our client’s money to do conventional, me-too work. We need to help you stand out.
