Ain’t no party like a Chess Club party.
We’re an ad agency in all the ways you’d expect. But past the standard stuff, we remain unexpected—keeping you curious.
We cultivate peculiarity at the top with our owners. Hailing from finance, accounts and creative, it’s a nearly unthinkable trio. But like peanut butter and pickles, chocolate on potato chips, unlikely pairings can create magic. When they put their heads together, they’re transformed into an unstoppable advertising dynamo ready to rock every area of the agency. Our name. Yes, we know you’re going to have an opinion about it. Our brand—a loud, proud expression of who we are and where we’re going.
We believe in the strength of an idea. We invest in relationships, because we understand clear communication, trust and respect are invaluable. We forgo the fluff and cut right to the good stuff. We’re cross-trained, so our process is streamlined. We’ll give it to you straight and loop you in early. We know a healthy culture yields better results—and ours is in the best shape of its life.
We’re art kids, wordsmiths, divergent thinkers, leaders, office DJs, animal lovers, craft beer aficionados, TikTok famous, motorcycle enthusiasts and the cool kind of nerdy. We’ve been around the block. We’re dripping in new blood and fresh ideas. We’re more fun than your real friends but have your back just as boldly. We’re a small-town girl with big-city swagger. We’re chocolate cake for breakfast. We’re a perfectly aligned stack of freshly printed papers.
We’re hungry—and you’re going to want a seat at our table.
