To help someone do better, you have to know them better.

Welcome to Marcus Thomas

Ok, so here's our story: We're approaching 300 professionals in our offices in Cleveland and Cincinnati, Ohio, Buenos Aires, Argentina and Santiago, Chile. We're one of America’s leading independent, full-service, integrated advertising agencies. And we're recognized for our creative, media, public relations, social media, digital strategy and technology thinking and work. 

Our approach is help our clients create more experiences and fewer ads. More value and fewer interruptions. We start by helping our clients understand the human journey – not just the buyer journey – their customers and prospects are on.

We think brands that create value for people – that make people’s lives better even in some small way – will be the winners moving forward. These brands will develop long-term relationships with much better lifetime ROI. The industry’s current short-term focus on isolated data, on clicks and likes and transactions, works against this. Some say bucking this is impossible. We say, bring it on.
