Honor Code Creative

We've cracked the code and become the partners we always wished for.

We've been brand and agency. PR and advertising. We're passionate consumers and extremely honest grownups. We've figured out a way to do things fairly, efficiently, and effectively, building a dream team for each piece of work. You get us. And 75+ talented people we've held onto by not being assholes for 2 decades. We've cracked the code and become the partners we always wished for when we were in your shoes. We break through. By doing things differently.

WE WORK DIFFERENTLY

No big retainers. No one-size-fits-all approach. We work with clients who are kind, who trust us and trust what we've learned over time. Whether evolving a brand, conceiving a campaign, or doing something incremental and impactful, we create the emotional connections that resonate with real people.

OUR CLIENTS SAY IT BEST

“I’ve worked with Rachel at Rue La La, at M.Gemi and then brought her in as Honor Code. What I often find with creatives is that you have to pick one: someone who’s a creative visionary or someone who’s nimble, strategic and results-oriented. Rachel is the rare breed of both, the quintessential partner when it comes to moving a business forward. She’s a passionate brand steward, but manages to marry what’s right for the brand with what’s effective for the business…”

Jess Gallagher, Former VP Programming, M.Gemi
“Honor Code Creative is everything I need and more! It started out as some web copywriting and evolved into copywriting across the brand, project management, creative thinking and problem solving, blog, editorial genius, and a regular update on what’s happening out in the world with brands. Rachel and Susanne are able to work with any direction (sometimes little-to-none) and create something for me time and time again. They can also work FAST! Never have missed a deadline, no matter how insane, and understand exactly what questions to ask and what information to get to make the project outcome great. Truly could not function without them.”

Lily Alston-Swan, Head of Creative Services, Sperry
“I love working with Honor Code Creative!…I’ve turned to Honor Code Creative many times now, for a variety of important work at turning point moments. [Rachel] and her team led the creative evolution of our edX DNA, developed our new logo, and strategized with the team to launch our rebrand…HCC is able to bring us high-level thinking and high impact work quickly and more efficiently than you’d expect, and on top of that they partner incredibly well with - and energize - our internal team.”

Stephanie Brocoum, CMO, edX
