BS LLC is a boutique Strategy, Branding, and Marketing agency focused on helping clients discover their place in the world and build from purpose.

With diverse and cross-disciplinary methodologies, with passion for educating and problem-solving, with a deep love for the stories and images that define the human condition—we don’t just create work for our clients, we help them evolve and transition, think and act differently, and grow with resolve and intention.

We are the liaison between an organization’s right and left brain and strive to architect solutions informed as much by research as creativity. Our name stands for Brand Strategy, the initials of our co-founders, and yes, that BS—a challenge to ourselves to rise above mediocrity and create true and undiluted meaning. We work as a collective within and across three core disciplines:

Strategy:
Identifying pain points and opportunities for brands, businesses, and institutions to illuminate and implement a tangible path towards improvement and growth.

Branding:
Connecting human insights to the creative process in order to position or reposition, create or recreate an organization’s permanent visual and verbal assets.

Marketing:
Impactful assets consistently communicated to build longer-lasting, deeper, and more valuable relationships.

    Amazing experience from the very beginning! Rebranding can be extremely stressful for any company. BSLLC made this transition seamless. HUGE shoutout to Maddy and Sebastian! Thank you! "
    karyn alten's Review Sourced from Google
    Had an excellent experience with Ben and his team at BS. Beyond being very creatively talented, their design had a lot of depth. They really explored not just our demographic, but where our products come from, the history of the mediums and also our geographic locations where we manufacture. It all built up to be a much more intentional and purposeful brand. All-in-all, quite impressed and hope to use them more in the future. "

    This is the only agency I’ll ever use from here on out! BS LLC was an incredible partner in launching Space 3 Yoga, delivering top-tier branding, strategy, design, and marketing support. They handled everything—market research, brand identity, website development, and launch strategy—with precision and care. Every deliverable was ahead of schedule, and their responsiveness was unmatched. Their team felt like an extension of our own, fully invested in our success. If you need a strategic, creative, and truly committed agency, BS LLC is the one. "

    We've worked with the team at BS recently for the rebranding of our new cybersecurity solution, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Their team was exceptional throughout the entire process. I want to specifically call out Ben, Marielle, Liam, Sam, Hannah and Sebastien- they are all incredibly great at what they do. From the initial consultation to final revisions, BS LLC was responsive to our needs and questions. They took the time to understand our company culture and target audience, ensuring the brand resonated with both. They are responsive, relatable, reliable and profoundly creative. "

    I had a great experience working with BS LLC. The brand discovery process was so much fun for me and my team and I am SO happy with the final result. We have been complemented so many times on our branding. After years of looking at it, I still love it. Great team and great work overall! "
    Marina Gee's Review Sourced from Google
    We worked with the team at BS LLC to design a new website for our custom furniture business and we continue to work with them on maintenance and upkeep. They have been incredible from the start. Responsive, creative, knowledgeable, and fun to work with. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to upgrade their website, or think thoroughly through their branding and marketing strategies, both on the creative side and the technical side. "

    BS LLC distilled a complex structure and product offerings down into something palatable to allow us to target relevant prospects and customers to guide them to the information they need to start the journey on finding the right solutions for their production line. They provided us with the framework to successfully apply this structure to our sister companies while keeping the overall visual requirements that align with our parent company seamlessly. "
