What Local* Clients Say

Creativity is our core strategic driver. Building Creative & Marketing Departments today, tomorrow, and for the long-haul...

...Your versatility is commendable, seamlessly transitioning between diverse projects...

I hired Neil↗ as a fractional Creative Director for BrightAI two years ago, and reflecting on our journey together, I can't help but express my profound gratitude for the incredible impact he has had on our team and brand.
Erin dudley
Director Of Marketing, BrightAI

"We love you!"

Local* is full of self-starters. I’ve never met an agency* so passionate about bringing out the creative juices in others. To do just that, and to introduce theories of play in the workplace, Local* started a regular interactive project called GroupMind, in which everyone was invited to learn and explore their own self expression via different mediums. The series not only improved morale within our 30-person team but it also helped people see their own creativity in new ways, building confidence and ultimately improving client deliverables.
Stacey kawakami
Managing Director, Dilate

"Thanks for giving a sh*t"

Love what you all are doing.
james clark
Founder, Room 214

"We talk a lot about our integrated approach to medicine,

I think what you* did/are doing is a kind of integrative design - cutting edge aesthetics, new technologies, but deeply in tune with the essence.

Thank you,
OREN SLOZBERG
Executive Director, Commonweal

"Above all, Local* is inquisitive, imaginative, constraintless, adaptable, unconventional, surprising, determined, genius."

Local* thrives in complex environments, studying and examining and connecting dots until they're able to make sense of the problem - no matter the medium. This in essence this is how I view all of Local*s interdisciplinary work. Be it painting, drawing, graphic design, sculpture, video or strategy work. Local* works and works until they find the underlying idea, then imbue it with all of its beautiful meaning and emotion.

"At first I thought they were professional strategists. They are in a way, however the label of strategist is too limiting for them."

I believe the greatest strength of Local* Dot Agency is the way they move through the world. They* live with an open heart and an open mind. Many creatives desire to make something for themselves. However not Local*; they focus on solving real world problems for real people. It all derives from empathy, they place their clients at the center, fueled to search for ways to meet the users needs. I've witnessed them chop up a standard solution to uncover something truly magical. A solution that brings joy and relief for their intended audience.

The Who* Behind The Why

Our internal values, identities, and the cultural DNA that shapes every product, service, and experience is brought to life by "Who We* Are."
VISION QUEST

Branded Products

For each Branded Product engagement, these protocols are not simply discovery—they are co-architectural frameworks that establish the internal logic, rhythm, and contextual DNA of each client project.
BUILD SYSTEMS

Living Systems◌

The "How" of each Brand and organization build is what creates Living Systems; toolkits that evolve with clients to yield truth, personalized accessibility, local* and global sustainability over time.

On The Ground

The Ongoing Study of Who* We Are & How We* Operate across Branded Product Landscapes
finding common ground
01

Do we mesh?

Finding lasting partners (for both parties) is mission critical. Let's grab a coffee, a libation, or a zoom call and get to know each other.

These are the values we* look for:

  • Strong, timely communication
  • Visionary mindsets; those interested in pushing boundaries
  • Sustainability; for each other and our* build
swapping shared value
02

concept & proposal

Before getting started on projects, we move our collective visions through shared expectations to ensure all parties receive fair ,transparent, and ongoing values, standards, and expectations.

This is the process we* follow:

  • Local* Proposal
  • Local* Contracts
  • Phase-Based Builds*
inventing design systems
03

Pipeline expansion

Contemporary Brands move fast. We* integrate phasing across digital & print needs to encourage irl/url identity expansion and natural workflows.

Pipeline Expansion encourages...

  • Infrastructure Development (Who* Work)
  • irl/url Creativity™: Core Operating Models™, Design staging environments, logic
  • Ad/Marketing growth for physical & digital touchpoints and omnichannel growth
upholding identity growth
04

Ongoing pipeline projection

Creative Projects and Pipelines will end, fade, stall; our Founders* work with Senior and Executive staff to mitigate build cycles.

Pipeline Projection empowers livability...

  • This keeps everyone feeling valued
  • This keeps economy regular and expected
  • This allows all Local* parties to grow and thrive
