About Us
What We Do
Engage is a boutique brand agency based in Toronto, Ontario.

Working With Us
The advances in technology closed the gap between small and large advertising firms and the geographic reach of the larger agencies is no longer relevant.
So, what does working with a boutique agency mean? It means working with an agency who consistently adapts their methodology to fit the needs for each specific project or client. It means working with an agency who works hard to stay ahead of innovation, who maximizes their resources and actually listens to what you need versus telling you what their time-tested methodologies have proven. It means to accept the new Darwinism, for the large agencies are no longer the fittest.
How Can We Help You Grow
A well crafted brand and communication strategy can do more than simply help you stand out from competitors. It can help you break away entirely. We work with you to understand your top line short and long term strategic objectives. The investment you make in creating or enhancing your brand and the creative ideas firing your marketing materials should help you create real value in achieving your corporate goals.
Even The Sky Is No Limit
You want to be noticed. You want to turn heads in your direction. You want the double take (or even the “double click”).
To do this you need to offer a “nice surprise”, a way of getting attention and giving rewards to the attentive.
How can we help you get your message across?
We’ll help you get your message across not by giving you what you want but by giving you something you never expected. And, of course, it will be what you needed all along.
The Impact Of Engagement
We are both, knowledgeable of and sensitive to the subtle cultural nuances required to work effectively in multiple or global markets.
We combine the sophistication of European aesthetics with the commercial imperatives of North America, to create a strategically targeted corporate presence for each of our clients.
