MY BACKGROUND

 

Sean DallasKidd is a business savvy creative leader with more than 15 years of experience— designing business transformation solutions for industry leaders like Visa, Treasury Wine Estates, EA, Discovery and others.

 

DallasKidd’s foundation comes from the world of publishing, a place where “content is king” and communities form around brands that have a strong editorial message and sense of purpose. That background has helped to shape his approach to storytelling today; helping brands define their story and creatively communicating that narrative to their audience(s).

 

MY APPROACH

 

DallasKidd’s editorial approach allows him to focus on developing a compelling brand narrative. He believes that being narrative 1st allows for a more holistic, platform agnostic approach, which leads to deeper brand engagement. He believes that the key to converting target audiences into brand advocates lies in getting the right message, to the right people at the right time and on the right channel— be it digital or IRL. He believes that by identifying the shared space between what’s authentic to the brand and “courageous acts that appeal” is how brands will find success going forward.

 

Although DallasKidd has amassed numerous awards throughout his career, what he values most is the business success it has brought to his brand partners and the storytelling opportunities to creative collaborators. These two outcomes can only happen through the cultivation of trust, empathy and understanding of and for the business. This passion and interest is something that DallasKidd brings to each partnership and to the studio everyday.

“Trust is built on being interested

in your clients business.”
