About Us

We’re The Black Sheep Agency. Here's what matters to us.

To shock. To awe. To be the agency that changes minds and accelerates impact.

That's our mission.

Black Sheep is a B Corp, a brand strategy and creative agency that wakes up every day with the goal of activating people around things that matter. We care about you and about what’s happening in the world at large. 

Fiercely dedicated to serving our community, we organize around a common vision. Together with our clients and collaborators, we unite around one thing—building a future we can believe in and supports us all. This means working toward equity for women, LGBTQ+ people and BIPOC in every industry and community.

We choose to spend our time working with clients who are changing things with a deep-seated sense of purpose, and that’s why we work solely with cause-driven brands who share our values, like:

Words We Live By.

Caring is hard. It means that sometimes you’re angry. That you struggle. That you’re disappointed when that chance wasn’t taken and there’s not another one. Caring also means you have to do something, and doing something is the most vibrant of opportunities. It’s the opportunity to put something of yourself into the world, into the work that’s building The Future, the work that makes all The Difference—or the start of a difference, which is all we really need.

To make The Difference, we work our asses off. We fail, sometimes not even forward. There’s never enough time, or money, or people to accomplish the things that need doing—and that part, it never changes. So we figure it out. We work with conviction. We believe in what we do. We believe in you and what you’re doing.

But when it comes to doing, the change isn’t always big: It’s about breaking it down into tiny, manageable steps and feeling the momentum when a plan starts to work. It’s finding the people who care enough to begin when dreams are distant and convincing everyone else to join in. It’s one day at a time, one foot in front of the other, walking with a burning feeling in your bones that grows with progress. It’s the life of an activist. We know it well; we’ve been living it for ten years.

Steps build. People notice. Victories spark. 

Then a break comes.

And the candle burning at both ends becomes a firework that illuminates it all: how far you’ve come, those you’ve brought with you and The Future you’ve built with your bare hands, your bloodsweatandtears. We know why you’re here. We’re here for the same reasons. To join and improve. To find ways to burn just a little bit brighter. To search for the kindling that ignites The Difference, which is all we really need—for now.
