Buttermilk is a global, independent and specialist creator marketing agency. Influence has been replaced with advocacy and this is starting to play a vital role in brands’ marketing mixes. We call ourselves the ‘Community First Creator Agency’ because we believe that the closer brands are to their fans, their customers, the people already using their products and services, the more successful they will be. We also believe that creators sit at the centre of these online communities; and that their authentic, relatable content is becoming more powerful than mass communications and expensive advertising.
There are plenty of things that make us different: we don’t represent talent, we are talent agnostic, so the brief comes first. We have our own proprietary gifting programme - Brand Fans - which takes a ‘community first’ approach to gifting and a creator first approach to content creation. Whether we are working with brands on a campaign or their annual influencer programme, we have strategists, creatives, data, tech and delivery experts that help us get effective work out into the world.
We’re also really, really nice people. Hear our story, speak to our founders, take a look at our website and social feeds - Buttermilk is its own community of creators and we’d love to welcome you in.
