Our Ambition

We exist to make purpose popular.

We believe in the notion that businesses have both the opportunity and responsibility to drive change. That’s why we act as a trusted partner and advisor for rapidly emerging, purpose-led brands.

We work at the intersection of beauty and consciousness.

Why Us

01

Cultural Capital

We believe diversity lies at the center of innovation. As a minority-led group, you’ll have fresh perspectives from our various backgrounds and experiences. This helps us infuse unique solutions, values, awareness, and empathy into your brand, so your customers can turn into real fans.

02

Purpose-Bred

We were created with a purpose, for a purpose. As a B Corp, we’re serious about fostering growth in our communities. Embodying this helps inform our brand-building approach, considering both the brand itself and the value it brings to people, the planet, and all without sacrificing profit.

03

The Odd Notion Method™️

Our approach blends values-based marketing strategy with our cultural capital. This way, we incorporate elements from culture, brand values, and customer values to make your brand both a memorable and meaningful experience.

04

Sauce

We believe that purpose doesn't have to be modest. We are renowned for creating award-winning work that is culturally aware and offers solutions, inspiring brand loyalty. After all, purpose-driven brands can be saucy too.

Recognized by the world’s leading awards.

A foreign perspective from a team of misfits.
