TALK SHOP LA

A boutique agency specializing in specialists—academics, nonprofits, foundations, authors, and original thinkers on the verge of shaping tomorrow's conversations. We believe good things happen when people start talking about your good work. That's how you achieve something big.

you

You do what you do exceedingly well. But you need help to expand your reach, refine your mission, and drive the conversation.

WE

We get people talking about you through messaging, branding, communications strategy and execution, competitive analysis, and deep research.

PROCESS

First we listen—then we talk shop. Connection is at the core of what we do. That starts with a thoughtful dialogue with every client where we hear your challenges and big ambitions.

depth

Polished collateral is great, but if the design and copy aren’t backed up by deep thinking, and ideas that work all the way through a campaign, we’re left in shallow waters. We seek meaningful engagements in order to produce meaningful and lasting outcomes. That’s it. That’s the secret sauce.

Charge

Our focus is taking the work of very smart people and organizations and helping them frame or reframe their work and vision for wider audiences. Sometimes that takes the form of a mission statement, an anthemic About Us webpage, a logo, or simply a tweet. We’re collaborators and, we hope, long-term partners for the projects and problems before you today, and five years from now.

Let’s talk.
