WE’RE JOINING STAGWELL TO EXPAND OUR CAPABILITIES🚀

A letter from our co-founders, Evan + Geoffrey

November 2, 2023

To our incredible community of clients and partners 👋

Over the 7 years since we founded Movers+Shakers, our clients have trusted us to continue to grow our capabilities, and deepen our thought partnerships. In the early days, we were making small, entertainment-driven social campaigns. Today, we’re helping clients drive cultural relevance much more broadly: across mainstream and emerging platforms, from strategic playbooks to tentpole campaigns to trend-driven organic social.

Today, we again expand our ability to accelerate brand growth, as we join the Stagwell network of agencies!

Why join Stagwell?

Our clients continue to invite us to expand our thought partnerships -- to not only help drive cultural relevance on social, but to increase our impact with (1) the ability to execute globally, and (2) adjacent capabilities like media, performance, experiential, data, brand strategy, and PR.

We spent the past year meeting and vetting dozens of potential partners across the industry. We searched for like-minded disruptive thinkers, who are also committed to our values like joy and caring collaboration. As we got to know Stagwell, we knew that these were our people.

Stagwell is a global challenger network, with 70+ agencies who are disruptors in their fields. Operating in 34 countries, they combine culture-moving creativity with leading-edge technology. The team includes iconic agencies like 72andSunny, Anomaly, Code and Theory, and Instrument. (full list here)

We also love that Stagwell is committed to founder-led agencies, and maintaining each agency’s unique personality and culture.

What this means for our clients:

You chose Movers+Shakers because of our unique blend of creativity, social-first expertise, culture-driving work, and our joyful and innovative team. All of these things will continue, and continue to get better!

👫 Same Amazing Team: Your family of innovators, creators, and ‘Culture Whisperers’ will continue to grow. Now they have access to complementary capabilities across the globe.

🤩 Same Leadership: The two of us will continue to lead Movers+Shakers. The mission to spread joy and connect brands to culture remains at the heart of everything we do.

💡 Always Evolving: We’ve spent 7 years inventing and reinventing our playbooks, and expanding our capabilities. Now, with our sister agencies across Stagwell, we're able to do even more for you. That might look like a global reach, or integrated thinking with media, data, brand strategy, PR, and beyond.

What's Next?

All of our projects and teams continue, business as usual. And, over time, we get to add this whole new playground of capabilities and scale.

The soul of Movers+Shakers will always be to serve our clients with our unique flavor of authenticity and creative energy. 💛

Thank you for putting your trust in us. We can’t wait to continue to grow together. 🚀

With joy,

Evan Horowitz, Co-Founder & CEO
