Stagehands

You can call us your stagehands.

Derived from the Japanese "Kuroko", which literally means "black-clad", the word refers to the stagehands in traditional Japanese theatre, dressed entirely in black so as not to be seen by the audience.

This perfectly sums up what we want to be for our clients - working tirelessly in the background so that you can shine, without us being noticed, without us taking the credit.

It's not about us. It's about you.

How We Help



After working with over 150 clients, we've learned a thing or two about personal branding. Actually, we've cracked the personal brand code and now use it to help people like you.
It started with one vision: to help the most exciting CEOs and founders to build powerful personal brands and create the reputation they deserve.

Position

First we help our clients gain clarity on their brand and position them as industry-leading figures.

Amplify

Next we create a credible online presence for them by blowing up their social presence and landing them high-profile media features.

Convert

Then we help them convert their new-found reputation into meaningful opportunities and ROI.
