About Us
Boutique Creativity
Outsized Impact
Mission-Aligned Focus
We’re a team of strategists, creatives, product geeks, and campaigners who know how to turn vision into momentum. We build and scale what matters—brand strategy and messaging, standout creative and video, design and web, performance media, PR/press, live events and field activations, and fundraising programs (donor, grassroots, and digital)—delivered as full-funnel campaigns across every platform. We bring Madison Avenue polish to mission-driven work—partnering only with clients who share our values and our commitment to building a better future. We don’t just build brands. We build movements.
Milestones that matter
Substrate is founded, driven by a belief in combining Madison Avenue excellence with mission-driven impact.
Launched our events and activations vertical, hosting summits and gatherings that helped clients build real community—not just clicks.
Expanded our PR and political campaign practice—cutting turf, scaling grassroots strategy, and raising nearly $2 million for political candidates aligned with our values.
We’re scaling our campaign operations coast to coast: candidate messaging development, online and out-of-home voter targeted ads, multilingual outreach, and data-driven field programs that move persuadables and mobilize the base.
Amid a global shift, we helped clients pivot to digital-first storytelling, producing high-impact campaigns in a fully remote world.
Established our startup services to include pitch deck development, fundraising management and outreach, data room support, product summaries (video/print), and PR.
Partnered to build an award-winning nonprofit from the ground up, delivering end-to-end branding, fundraising, and growth strategy.
