What Local* Clients Say
Creativity is our core strategic driver. Building Creative & Marketing Departments today, tomorrow, and for the long-haul...
...Your versatility is commendable, seamlessly transitioning between diverse projects...
I hired Neil↗ as a fractional Creative Director for BrightAI two years ago, and reflecting on our journey together, I can't help but express my profound gratitude for the incredible impact he has had on our team and brand.
Director Of Marketing, BrightAI
"We love you!"
Local* is full of self-starters. I’ve never met an agency* so passionate about bringing out the creative juices in others. To do just that, and to introduce theories of play in the workplace, Local* started a regular interactive project called GroupMind, in which everyone was invited to learn and explore their own self expression via different mediums. The series not only improved morale within our 30-person team but it also helped people see their own creativity in new ways, building confidence and ultimately improving client deliverables.
Managing Director, Dilate
"Thanks for giving a sh*t"
Love what you all are doing.
Founder, Room 214
"We talk a lot about our integrated approach to medicine,
I think what you* did/are doing is a kind of integrative design - cutting edge aesthetics, new technologies, but deeply in tune with the essence.
Thank you,
Thank you,
Executive Director, Commonweal
"Above all, Local* is inquisitive, imaginative, constraintless, adaptable, unconventional, surprising, determined, genius."
Local* thrives in complex environments, studying and examining and connecting dots until they're able to make sense of the problem - no matter the medium. This in essence this is how I view all of Local*s interdisciplinary work. Be it painting, drawing, graphic design, sculpture, video or strategy work. Local* works and works until they find the underlying idea, then imbue it with all of its beautiful meaning and emotion.
CD & Partner, Interact
"At first I thought they were professional strategists. They are in a way, however the label of strategist is too limiting for them."
I believe the greatest strength of Local* Dot Agency is the way they move through the world. They* live with an open heart and an open mind. Many creatives desire to make something for themselves. However not Local*; they focus on solving real world problems for real people. It all derives from empathy, they place their clients at the center, fueled to search for ways to meet the users needs. I've witnessed them chop up a standard solution to uncover something truly magical. A solution that brings joy and relief for their intended audience.

The study of who* we are— and our relationships with these felt spaces & places*
01
Do we mesh?
Finding lasting partners (for both parties) is mission critical. Let's grab a coffee, a libation, or a zoom call and learn about each other.
These are the values we* look for:
- Strong, timely communication
- Understanding of visionary mindsets
- Sustainability; for each other and our* build
02
concept & proposal
Before getting started on projects, we move our collective visions through shared expectations to ensure all parties receive fair ,transparent, and ongoing values, standards, and expectations.
This is the process we* follow:
- Local* Proposal
- Local* Contracts
- Phase-Based Builds*
03
Pipeline expansion
Contemporary Brands move fast. We* integrate phasing across digital & print needs to encourage irl/url identity expansion and natural workflows.
Pipeline Expansion encourages...
- Infrastructure Development (Who* Work)

- Ad/Marketing growth for physical & digital touchpoints and omnichannel growth

Ongoing pipeline projection
Creative Projects and Pipelines will end, fade, stall; our Founders* work with Senior and Executive staff to mitigate build cycles.
Pipeline Projection empowers livability...
- This keeps everyone feeling valued
- This keeps economy regular and expected
- This allows all Local* parties to grow and thrive
