NYB Creative

Boston, United States · 28 people

We Ignite Your Marketing We offer specialized marketing and brand support for companies in the FIRE industries: finance, insurance, real estate. Having worked deep inside in these industries, we have intimate knowledge of these markets, their customers, and what works based on decades of experience. We’ve tried all the tactics, kept on top of new ones, and we know what’s worth the investment - what makes dollars & sense! We Do Things Different - Because We Are Different. From the way we collaborate to the way we get your customers’ attention, you probably haven’t experienced anything like us. Our founding partners are fiery and impassioned about growing businesses through branding and marketing. They provide unique insight having come from both sides of the equation: one a successful business owner who has grown multiple companies and along the way worked with many marketing agencies, the other a branding and marketing strategist who has created strategies for and collaborated with companies ranging from global insurance and real estate firms to local brokerages. Michael Honig brings a real understanding of the back-end workings of your business, the multiple hats you wear as an owner, and an empathy for staying on top of all that and your marketing... and emerging technology (in an owner's shoes it feels endless). Trent Warner comes with a breadth of experience in providing brand strategy and marketing insight: creating campaigns for national finance, and global insurance and real estate juggernauts (a few with 3 letter acronyms), understanding and combating the trickle down effect that carriers and national brands have on local markets when it comes to messaging, strategy and technology adaptation, and creating strategies that work for everyone in between. They are supported by an all-star team of hungry creatives that share their passion for great work and creating an impactful story. Spark up a conversation - you won't be disappointed!

Zozimus Agency

Boston, United States · 23 people

We understand that you can’t jam a prescriptive service down someone’s throat just because it fits your agenda. Instead, we made the decision to work together with our clients to discover and define the best solutions to address their individual needs. There are two ways to approach media: outspend, or outsmart. At Zozimus, we believe the latter is the optimal approach, even if a partner is able to outspend competitors. We believe that identifying the right audience and data driven targeting helps our clients win. Our promise to our clients and to our team is that our agency will always put our client’s needs first. We will always collaborate, create, and find the best solution that works for you, not just a prescriptive service. You have our word.
