At o2kl, we practice chemistry for the good of advertising, marketing and the advancement of clients everywhere. Carefully balancing logic, emotion and empathy, our agency was designed to create powerful reactions that work across every advertising medium. Based in New York City’s Flatiron District, o2kl was founded in 2004 by four big-agency ad executives who wanted to bring back the spark to an industry that was getting kind of flat. So we’ve made o2kl a fun place where people want to come to work. We hire adults who have respect for their fellow workers, a love for the craft of advertising, and genuine empathy for our clients and their needs. After all, you can’t have great advertising without great client chemistry. Advertising is a business that’s constantly in flux, but we pride ourselves on the fact that most of our clients stay with us for years. Chemistry is what keeps them coming back: No matter how complicated the job, they know they can count on us to conjure up great work that gets a great reaction. After all, over the years our people have won everything you can think of – from Golden Lions and Diamond Echos to Addys, Caples, Effies, Interactive Media Awards and more –creating customer experiences that turn into leads, sales and raises all around. So why not give us a try with your next challenge? Because whatever great things you want to concoct with your advertising, the answer is always the same: start with chemistry.
