John Maxham

I strive to do work with cultural currency.

From putting expressions like She Shed and Snack Hoodie into the popular lexicon, to turning notions of Super Bowl success on their head. My strengths include fusing powerful ideas with technology, design and production excellence to cut through the noise. From juggernauts to underdogs, big budgets to low budgets, my breadth of experience across so many different marketing scenarios taught me to adapt to the unique challenges of each client and devise solutions that are right for them.

If I’m stubborn about anything it’s that powerful ideas should still make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. So let’s have some fun, grab some headlines and move the needle together.

Vince Cook

You can’t make an ostrich fly. You can’t make a sundial on a billboard. You can’t make a grown man cry over a glass cleaner. I’ve been told you can’t a lot in my career. I think I’m a poor listener. I once was even told I shouldn’t get into the business then this happened. Adweek's "Creative 100, The Names You Need to Know Right Now” and Adweek's 22 "Creative Directors who are Completely Reimagining What's Possible in Advertising".
I love challenges, especially impossible briefs.

About where I’ve lead, art directed, the awards, what work has been parodied, the national news and media sensations made, where I’ve spoken at and who loves me feel free to click the LinkedIn button below. However, I’m not as excited about the past as I am excited about the great things we can do for you or your brand.
