About us

Rigorous aboutresults.Human to work with.

We're a Cluj agency, started in 2017. We work with companies that want to grow, and we tell them straight how it's going, in the good months and the bad. Our clients are on four continents, from Romania to New Zealand.

How we work

Strict discipline on the numbers, collaboration without the stiffness.

We like a friendly, direct collaboration free of pointless formality, and it stays that way as long as the results are OK. Underneath the relaxed tone sits strict discipline: every decision has a reason, every campaign has numbers.

01

Obsessed with results

The one thing that's never negotiable. Every campaign has numbers, every decision has a reason, and when something isn't delivering, we change it rather than excuse it.

02

Flexibility

No rigid processes for their own sake. We adapt to your pace and way of working, and constantly update our tools, AI included, as long as everything stays measured.

03

Friendly collaboration

You talk directly to the people working on your account, not through three layers of go-between. No meetings for the sake of meetings, and no agency boilerplate.

04

Honest reporting

We tell you what's working and what isn't, with the figures on the table. No spin in the reporting, no end-of-month surprises.

The founder

I built my first website at 11.

Founder · Cluj-Napoca

I grew up in Baia Mare, with childhood summers spent in the countryside, and a passion for computers and the internet that arrived long before any career plan. At 11 I built my first website, about football; then came forum communities, video editing, design and a few IT contests won along the way.

I studied maths and computer science at the “Gheorghe Șincai” National College in Baia Mare, then Business at Babeș-Bolyai University in Cluj. Maths taught me how things get measured; business taught me how they get positioned and grown. That's where our obsession with numbers comes from: it isn't sales talk, it's my training.

Away from the desk: music, mountains, tennis, padel, football, and chess. That's also where our view of marketing comes from: like chess, position beats spectacular moves.

The journey

Nine years, step by step.

2017

The beginning

Brand Developer starts in Cluj, alongside an associate, no market experience, but big dreams and the drive to get better with every project.

2020

Remote

After three years in an office, COVID moves us fully remote, before it was cool. We stayed because it works: clear processes, measured results, happy people.

Today

4 continents

Today I run the agency myself, with clients across four continents: Romania, the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and others. Working in English-speaking markets is a deliberate choice. Over the years I've worked with clients from 15+ countries.
