Life Story

For the last six years, Life Story has been helping companies and organisations to tell their story better. We do some of the jobs that marketing and advertising agencies do (like branding, positioning, marketing strategy...) but we're not a traditional agency. We believe that great ideas come from collaboration with our clients, rather than holding them at arms length. We don't have 'creatives' and 'strategists' because all good strategy IS creative, and all good creative ideas are, by their nature, strategic. We outsource creative production so that our clients are only paying for the things they need, when they need them.
