Media Kit.
Company History & Philosophy.
Simple’s roots go way back to ancient Rome when the agency was manifested into existence by a benevolent yet highly judgmental god of advertising. Okay, not really. But we have been around a pretty long time now, at least long enough to see some pretty radical transformations in how business is done, especially online.
In this spirit, we now step boldly into the Web 3.0 frontier, embracing of next-generation technologies, and fully committed to helping companies prepare for the changes and challenges ahead. Better yet, we “keep it simple”, honoring the name under which we’ve staked our reputation.

(He also happens to make a pretty impressive omelet. Just saying.)
