Award-winning creative that transforms lives
Let’s illuminate your story, fulfill your brand promise and drive change for the better
Delivering outcomes that matter
Our clients are addressing challenges that directly affect the long-term well-being of individuals, communities and the planet. They include Fortune 100 financial companies helping people build more secure futures in retirement, start-ups tackling the shift to clean energy, and global nonprofits working toward a sustainable future and an end to world hunger.
The particulars are very different, but the needs are often the same—building awareness, articulating solutions, overcoming entrenched behaviors and, ultimately, changing individual lives in lasting, positive ways.

Going beyond the quick click
A holistic pipeline of services drives results
Truly effective creative comes from connecting the dots for people so they can see the whole picture and be motivated to take the next step. That means knowing the product, goals, audience, obstacles, landscape and potential impact. We do that by engaging with our clients as early as possible and through every phase of development. When we’re in on the ground floor with you, you’ll reach your destination faster and with fewer stops along the way.

Simple, not simplistic
Telling your story in clear, concise ways can be challenging, especially when your industry or product is complex. It can stump even the most seasoned agencies. For us, it’s all in a day’s work. We make the complex simple for people, offering compelling answers to their three underlying questions:
Why is it important to me?
How will I benefit?
What do I need to do?
Don’t let size fool you
Bigger doesn’t always mean better
Big clients can hire any agency they want. So why do multiple Fortune 100 clients choose CCG? It’s the same reason you choose your favorite local hangout over a corporate chain. The vibe is friendly, the quality is unbeatable, the service is second to none and, best of all, they know you when you walk in, so you’ll always get more than you came for.
