The right size for every project

UpperNinety can grow and shrink based on the needs of our clients, without the difficulties of belabored hiring processes or heartbreaking layoffs. We’re dedicated to generating client success on terms and timelines that work for everyone involved. Whether you need something as big as an integrated global campaign or something as minuscule as a highly localized social push, we have the people, resources, capabilities and desire to make it happen. We’re built to adapt to whatever is thrown our way.

Our capabilities include:

Honestly, we can do just about anything a large agency can do. Just ask!

Our clients come in all shapes and sizes

big companies

Whether it’s a one-time gig or an ongoing campaign, we have the experience and resources to deliver successful work that generates real results — and we can do it with a level of speed ad agencies aren’t designed to handle. UpperNinety’s highly resourceful team can work with you from strategy to account management to creative executions to implementation.

small businesses

All of our clients are project based, so small businesses get equal footing with large companies. Ad agencies know what you do is important, but they simply aren’t set up to take on clients who can’t afford to sign on with a yearly scope. Whatever you do, UpperNinety ensures your work will be given the attention it deserves, even if it’s just a one-time project.

creative agencies

Ad agencies and other creative agencies: We respect what you do, and we’re standing by to lend a hand when you need it. Think of UpperNinety as an extension of your shop. Our highly experienced team can step in on pitches, projects and more to fill out your roster of talent with as-needed freelance professionals.

Startups

We want innovators to succeed, and we recognize how difficult it can be to gain traction as a company when you lack a brand identity. At UpperNinety, we are accustomed to working magic with small budgets, and we’re willing to discuss payment alternatives with people whose funding doesn’t yet match their ambition.

social causes

As agents of change, we support philanthropic work and nonprofit entities. UpperNinety is ready to work with you to promote any social causes and issue-based work that can help improve the lives of people in our communities. From big ideas to strategic implementation, let us know how we can collaborate.

Curiosity killed the old brand (and gave life to something better).

AlphaBEST has a unique take on what after-school education should be. More than just babysitting and homework help, this organization values an ever-shifting curriculum designed to boost curiosity and inspire imagination in children. Problem was: their brand identity didn’t reflect this value. UpperNinety and its creative partners were tapped to bring the AlphaBEST mission and vision to life in all aspects of the brand, so we got to work exploring how we could inject their dedication to wonder into the brand in a way that appeals to three distinct audiences: school administration, parents and children.

rebranding learning as play. And vice versa.

Kaplan Early Learning Company is a valued and respected partner in the education of young children throughout the country. They have a thoughtful and insightful take on effective learning techniques, and UpperNinety was asked to help them create a full brand refresh that reflected their new philosophy: learning is play, and play is learning. So we put together something that screams having fun should be taken seriously, and we crafted more than just the new look and feel — we put together an internal campaign to ensure employees didn’t just understand the new philosophy, but saw how they fit into it.
