We suck at Advertising! Lucky for us... We just suck less than most Chicago agencies In one hand, we are an award-winning boutique-style ad agency. And in the other, we think we sorta suck… Yes, all our clients are happy with increased sales and market share…But we bask in the continual sense of dissatisfaction… Because we realize everything we do is subject to the ultimate judge: the marketplace. And this challenging environment is always changing and evolving. So we never stop listening to that little voice in our head (fret not - we are in therapy for this illness), “we can always do better - so do not be satisfied.” It is our genetic makeup, this unceasing need to improve and be ahead of the curve. Bad Monkey Circus. Our name is a simple way to describe our philosophy. We believe in a small group of smart, rule-breaking, unique, entertainers about as many as can fit into a clown car should drive every piece of business. So everyone, including the client, is headed in the same direction. Our mantra is Doubt the Conventional – it guides everything we do. It means we're never looking for the usual play-it-safe performance; we're looking for the smartest and most entertaining way to connect to the consumer. Brand Entertainment! We tell compelling stories designed to help build powerful brands ­– stories that are driven by a powerful message delivered in the right context and then mapped to the right medium. We're an agency for clients who would rather outsmart the competition than outspend them. Original Thinking is Hard... Thus Creativity is NOT a Commodity! WE HELP CREATE UNCOMMON BRANDS, PRODUCTS, AND EXPERIENCES IN AN ENTERTAINMENT FORMAT. BRAND ENTERTAINMENT
