Since its founding in 2009, The Many has combined technology, creativity and empathy to make stuff consumers actively seek, engage and share.
It has resulted in loads of integrated campaigns and award-winning work for social and digital, long-form and creator content, and activations.
The secret sauce: we harness the power of participation. Because if you look around you'll notice that brands are no longer built in isolation, they're built in participation with the many.
Are you curious about why people do the things they do? What inspires them, motivates them, meets their needs and makes them happy? Do you love how users on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and the rest create and drive trends that spill into--and even take over--the online conversation?
