Fact Sheet

What We Do

Brokaw was founded by Bill Brokaw on April Fools Day, 1992. That should tell you something. And so should Bill’s three business goals: to do great work, to make money, and to have fun. As Bill is fond of saying, “Two out of three ain’t bad.”

Since then, Brokaw has grown from a small creative boutique to a full-serve advertising agency with one purpose: to help brands rise above the blah, blah, blah, blah, blah (No, seriously – it’s etched on the lobby wall.)

From Bruegger’s Bagels to MTD to Glaceau Vitamin Water to White Castle to Parker Hannifin, this creative-driven agency specializes in connecting brands to people in simple, honest, meaningful, unforgettable, un-blah-blah ways. (just call and ask to be put on hold – you’ll see.)

Their work and unique culture has attracted people from places like DDB, McCann-Erikson, McKinny & Silver, Arnold, Fallon, Ten United, Saatchi & Saatchi, and J. Walter Thompson. People who have gone to work and live in (get this) Cleveland, Ohio to do the kind of work they align with. And work with the kind of people they believe in. Fun-loving, hard-working, big-hearted, small-ego, brilliant-misfit, resilient lil’ engines who think-they-can, think-they-can.

But this agency believes it’s more than just about helping brands rise above. It’s about doing one thing, and doing it really well. It’s about walking the walk. It’s about working hard and playing hard. It’s about respect. Courage. Love. Life. And above all, it’s about laughing so hard, you poop your pants. Then laughing some more, because you just said the word “poop.” That’s what Brokaw is all about.
