thirty6

It's a common perception now that advertising is just noise.

It shows up, and it's probably saying something, but most of it is being ignored (89% of it according to Forbes, the IPA and a few others).

At best it's pointless and at worst it's annoying – people are literally paying to avoid advertising it. 

So, all it’s doing is wasting a brand's money and the opportunity. And that’s because it doesn’t connect as well as it should.

So thirty6 is a noise-cancelling strategy and creative company. Named after the year that noise-cancelling was invented, 1936.

We make sure that powerful strategy and compelling creative earns attention, makes a persuasive point and builds affinity.

We counteract the noise.

Because now, more than ever, that’s what every brand needs to do.

With decades of experience in some of the biggest and best global advertising agencies, from Ogilvy to AMV BBDO, Leo Burnett to Publicis, TBWA to both Saatchi agencies, helping grow some of the most successful brands in the world, we blend the expertise, rigour and craft from our past with the energy, agility and cost efficiencies of our present independent agency model.

And while we’ll always put effectiveness before the shiny trinkets of industry awards, we are backed by more recognition from the most respected industry bodies in the world than most, if not all, of the UK’s other independent agencies. Including 142 D&AD pencils, 8 Cannes Lions, 4 IPA effectiveness awards as well as multiple British Arrows, Clios and so on, for brands like Guinness, McDonald's, KFC, The Economist, the BBC, Red Bull, the Olympics, Sainsbury's, Audi, Patek Philippe, Penfolds wine, Bollinger, The Guardian, RNLI, P&), Nissan, Jeep, Waterstones, RSPCA and more.

We'd love to meet you and see how we can help your brand stand out from the noise.
