Our Mission
>Greater Thought is devoted to being a valued partner to our clients, and producing top-notch work that is strategy-driven, inspired, goal focused and results oriented to create success for our clients, our team and our community.
This is a different kind of organization.
>Greater Thought is a collaboration that came together naturally out of identifying a need. The ability to do what we each do well, without a box around us. We are all doers, who enjoy the work we do but heard a call from across the pass, to clear the clutter. The people you meet are the people who are doing your work.
What’s more, it matters far less where we are… we are in “the cloud”, able to work with clients anywhere and do our creative magic from where we each are most productive. We have built a complete capability out of like-minded individuals who do great work, creating smart content and have a desire to think and innovate. In bringing this team and our talents together, we created a dimensional service that can be scaled to meet the needs of today’s clients.
Regardless of your needs, we’ve got this. Seriously!
Our Driving Principles:
We are PROs!
What does that mean when we say we are PROs? It means we are seasoned professionals driven to think and be better than the average agency. It also means we are client focused. PROs is an acronym for our guiding principles that explain why we do what we do.
Greater
Perspective
We look for and provide you, our client, fresh perspective that will help move you forward and differentiate you. Perspective keeps us relevant, helps us survey our surroundings and informs us to make beneficial decisions about the trajectory of where we are going.
Greater
Respect
When we place an emphasis on respect, we level the playing field between ourselves and our clients. We are not a group of large egos, we are here with a purpose, and that purpose is to help and guide you. We respect your thoughts, time and money, and aim to be respectful and responsible with our work.
Greater
Opportunities
We are always on the look-out for growth opportunities for our clients, to increase their reach, and to amplify their message. Even when it is not our charge, if we believe there is an opportunity for you, we bring it to light and let you know that we are thinking proactively about your business, as a good partner.
Greater
Service
Driven by our desire to do better, and be better than our own counterparts in the industry, we aim to grow and refine who we are, to be of better service than what you have experienced with others. Evolution is a gradual process. As an organization we intend to be better tomorrow than we were yesterday. We promise you mutual trust, authenticity and transparency.
