LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Small Ax Creative and Cluster are partnering to make it easy for brands to ideate, produce and launch ad campaigns that both align with social and environmental impact causes and engage their social media influencer supporters. YPulse’s most recent Causes & Activism behavioral report found that “…the majority (83%) of young people believe all brands should do some sort of social good / charitable work.”
This partnership brings together two companies with complementary service offerings to deliver a seamless service that can increase campaign engagement by 30%+.
“The potential gains that nonprofits, creators and brands can see by using their media dollars to tell empowering stories is massive. Not to mention there is no better way to engage with Gen Z than by activating change and letting the brand’s story naturally unfold as a purveyor of purpose,” says Cluster Founder & CEO C.R. Celona.
“Brands today must align themselves with socially relevant / activated campaigns so that they can show real world impact or else become irrelevant. The world we now live in is one where Social Influencers drive brand awareness and campaigns for social good are seen as a must-have for Brands,” says Small Ax Creative Founder & CEO Jon Seidman.
This partnership is a long time coming. Both CEOs are close friends since having worked together more than a decade ago. Celona and Jon Seidman bring a passion for social impact and media and have dedicated their lives to finding ways to blend both.
Recent campaigns include brands such as Aspiration, Root Insurance, Hawaiian Springs, Miss Universe and the non-profit, The Elephant Project amongst others. Hawaiian Springs is launching an Aluminum line on September 1st as they seek to move towards a more sustainable and plastic free tomorrow.
