No Layers. Direct Contact.
Innovative Ideas. Exact Execution.
At HollandMerriman, we describe ourselves as “creative aggregators.”
By assembling an innovative, flexible team for your project or need, we bypass the traditional agency model with its high overhead, fixed staffing and layers of management.
That may apply to projects such as web design and video production or on-going services such as social media and digital campaign development.
We combine the fresh thinking of a specialized team with the continuity and oversight of a marketing partner.
How We Got Here
Bill Holland was traveling the country consulting healthcare clients. Michael Merriman was traveling the country directing commercials, music videos and documentaries.
The thing is, they had started a regional advertising agency, successfully built it, merged it and eventually went their separate ways to nationally recognized marketing consulting and creative production careers.
Bill called Michael about his idea to start a new agency together. They could bring their experience with regional/national clients and top creative companies to bypass the traditional agency model. Instead, build a flexible agency with the principals on the front line. No layers. Direct client contact.
Michael bought in. He was having lunch with a country music legend in Nashville. Bill was having lunch at a client’s cafeteria in Indiana. It’s true that the creatives get all the perks.
Let’s take that experience and put it to work for your brand.
