Company mission
To deliver creativity and real ROI on your creator campaigns.
Our take
The impact that influencers are having on generating sales for brands has not gone unnoticed and is now a part of most large brand and advertising marketing campaigns. Takumi is a platform that connects large brands and advertising agencies with relevant Influencers for creative campaigns.
Takumi is the middle-man between brands and influencers, providing creative strategy and ideas to support sales for client brands. Founded in 2015 the company now has offices in London and New York, two of the leading cities for the marketing sector. What’s interesting about the company is the end-to-end service of creative to sourcing influencers which is normally a more disjointed workflow.
The client roster has grown to acquire clients such as L’Oreal and Gillette. The company releases an annual industry trends report which highlights the growth in the industry, and the appetite from consumers to trust and engage in creator-led content. Its clear Takumi are in an expanding sector and are ahead of the game in understanding the demand. It’ll be exciting to see how the develops and what new products / features it may create over time.
