Too often, the essence of a brand can get lost behind a wall of words.
Mantras and mission statements are nice, but a tweet might be the best way to distill a company’s essence down to the basics. So we asked agencies — brand-builders themselves — how they’d describe their companies in 140 characters or less. Then we did them the favor of mocking up a tweet for them.
Got any we missed? Tweet at us.
