Brunner

Pittsburgh, United States · 191 people · Est. 1989

Most agencies split your brand into departments that occasionally cc each other. We don't. At Brunner, data, creative, media, and measurement work as one team in one room — not four functions passing work down a line. We call it Unified Intelligence. It's not a buzzword. It's how we're wired. Every project starts with the same business question, not a service menu. We pressure-test our way to the truth instead of settling for the first answer that sounds good in a meeting. And we treat measurement as fuel for the next move, not just a report that closes out a campaign. Independent for nearly 40 years — not because we couldn't sell, but because we didn't want to. We answer to our clients. That's it. We're Good People Getting Great Results for Our Clients It makes us proud when our clients say, “work with Brunner, they helped us accelerate our marketing performance.” But when we hear, “work with Brunner, they are truly an extension of our team” it drives us to work even harder - because we’re in it together.

HUEMOR®

Pittsburgh, United States · 36 people · Est. 2011

For a lot of B2B companies, marketing is doing more than ever. Campaigns are running. Content is going out. But the pipeline still isn’t where it needs to be. Sales wants better leads. Leadership wants clearer results. Marketing is left explaining the gap. The answer isn’t always more ad spend, another campaign, or a new website. It’s making those investments work together. When your messaging, content, campaigns, and website tell different stories, buyers have to connect the dots themselves. Let’s not make them work that hard. At Huemor, we help B2B companies build demand and turn buyer interest into qualified sales opportunities. We connect strategy, messaging, and digital marketing around three priorities: 1. Reach the right buyers. Focus on the customers you’re best equipped to help, their challenges, and where they look for answers. 2. Give them a reason to choose you. Build recognition and trust with clear positioning, useful content, and consistent messaging. 3. Turn interest into opportunities. Create campaigns and website experiences that make the next step clear. Improve based on lead quality and sales opportunities, not just clicks. Your website matters. So does everything that gets buyers there. For 15 years, we’ve helped hundreds of companies turn their websites into stronger marketing and sales assets. We bring that same focus on clear communication and business outcomes to your broader digital marketing. You don’t need more marketing for the sake of marketing. You need more opportunities your sales team can actually work with. Meet with a Huemor expert to identify what’s holding you back and where to focus next: https://hubs.ly/Q0469_fp0

Shift Collaborative

Pittsburgh, United States · 12 people · Est. 2013

We envision a world full of lucid communication that connects and engages, and free of murky brands, confusing websites, boring campaigns, and aimless approaches. Clear communication connects with people, energizes organizations, and builds a better world. We design brand solutions that are attainable, sustainable, and grounded in discovery. You need to connect with the world — or at least a specific set of people in the world. Maybe you have a service or a product to sell, maybe you have a story to tell, maybe you need to build a community that shares in an important purpose. You believe in your message, your product, your vision, and you know other people will too. If only you could get through to them. We use earned, owned, and paid media channels to connect you with the people you want to reach. And we help you figure out which channels and styles are most effective, so you put your money and time where they have the most impact. What’s different about us from other agencies is we look at things in a different way. We learn all we can about your situation, and we find ways to turn things on their head, or to see them from a new angle. Is what you’re doing now in your marketing and communications working? Cool. Keep on keeping on. But, if it’s not working as well as you know it could, give us a call. We’ll help you shift your thinking and your situation, and connect you with the people you need to reach.
