WE ARE STAND.

We build brand belief for trailblazers.

WHAT WE DO

What We Do
It’s not enough for people to just know your brand anymore.

They need to understand the ‘why’ behind it, what you stand for, and why they should support you – whether that’s choosing to invest, picking your brand over another, or donating to your cause.

 

We are a team of communication experts who help you raise the bar and stand out from the crowd.

 

From changing banking for good, to building support for net zero, to communicating the future of education and health, no topic is too big for us to tackle.

 

We’re an award-winning B Corp that likes to shake things up. Here for those that are leading the way – disrupting markets, challenging the status quo, and raising the bar. For those who believe in better, whether that’s in business, charity or government.

HOW WE DO IT

As strategic partners, we work hand in hand to overcome your business challenges. We spot opportunities to cut through the noise and meaningfully connect with people, shifting mindsets and changing behaviours.

 

Whether we’re supporting you with insight, strategy, culture or content, we help people truly connect and believe in what you’re doing and why. Taking them from awareness to belief and translating that belief into value.

 

We never assume we know the answer to your challenge or compare it to another. Instead, we listen and develop a response that’s unique to you. This crossover of business and comms challenges means we work with the C-suite as well as comms leads and are proud to provide trusted advice to many founders and CEOs.

TESTIMONIALS
Will Gardner
CEO AND DIRECTOR OF UK SAFER INTERNET CENTRE
We’ve been working with Stand for five years now and we’re continually grateful for their creativity, tenacity, counsel and wisdom year on year. Not only have we achieved monumental results this year, but the team’s unceasing enthusiasm and expertise are pivotal to the success of the campaign – allowing us to build awareness that goes beyond just a singular day.
Hatty Evans
Head of Brand & Marketing  at Magic Breakfast
We worked with Stand to do a dive into our audience insights, because boy did we need it. The team were nimble with working around our needs and the very understandable challenge of gaining insights from overstretched teachers to busy parents. At every turn Stand dealt with any challenges sensitively and with solutions in mind, finding a way through and around obstacles so we could still get the hugely valuable insight from parents, teachers, donors and partners. Stand also packaged up these insights in a way that we could engage our staff which is key for them being used in a tangible way.
Andrea De Gottardo
CEO of Kroo
We embarked on our journey with Stand when Kroo launched its current account just over a year ago. Our aim was to shake up the banking industry, and we knew we had to punch above our weight and say something different. We had big ambitions and needed to build a brand and voice that matched. Stand understood our mission and got stellar results from day one.  Our teams work seamlessly together, and their expertise and strategic approach has played a pivotal role in establishing our name as the bank that has customers' backs.
