Business, regulation, your marketing, your brand. Tell us in a line: no names, no company, no budget. We reply within 24 hours. Personally.

See what we solve Everything we do is under NDA.

What we solve

CEOs and C-suite executives call us when something isn’t working and the usual answers have run out. It’s almost always one of four things.

Business

Sales, category, growth

Sales are falling, the category got crowded, or growth stalled and nobody agrees why.

We find what’s actually broken (market, offer, story or execution) and set the few moves that fix it.

Context and crisis

Regulators, governments, unions, reputation

A regulator, a government, a union or an industry body has become part of your business problem. Or a reputational crisis is eating your leadership’s time.

We build the narrative and the plan to deal with it, so you can get back to running the company.

Team

Your marketing department, reinforced

You’re not sure your marketing works: the structure, the people, the spend, the agencies, how it’s using AI.

We review it from the inside and reinforce it: what to keep, what to change and who you need. We also review your vendors and help you choose new ones. We don’t sell any, so we can be straight about them.

Brand

Architecture, creation and repositioning

The brand and its products or lines no longer fit together, the brand has drifted from what the business does, or you need a new one that solves what the current one can’t.

We sort out the architecture, reposition the brand you have or create the one you need. Always starting from the business problem, not the logo.

What we
don’t do

We’re not an agency

We don’t run campaigns or buy media. When execution is needed, we help you pick who does it, and we keep an eye on them.

We don’t talk about our work

You won’t find our clients on this page, and you won’t find yourself on it either. If you need references, we share them privately, under NDA.

How we work

Quietly

NDA from the first call. We work directly with the CEO and the C-suite, sometimes on questions about their own team. No logos, no case studies, no press.

Independently

We’ve sat on every side of the table: media, PR and creative agencies, and in-house. We don’t sell agencies or media, so we can tell you which ones to keep.

For as long as it takes

Senior judgment for as long as the problem lasts. Not a permanent hire you’ll still be managing once it’s solved.

With the right people

A senior team put together for each case, and only when it’s needed: strategists, marketers, content creators, political communicators, creatives.

Local or global, the same judgment

We work with teams in Central and South America, Spain, the United States and Europe.

  • Highly regulated markets
  • Companies in open conflict with governments, unions or employer associations
  • Industries in transformation
  • Scaleups where the next step can’t go wrong
