Welcome to Stephens Francis Whitson

We’re a multi-award winning creative agency that creates strategies and campaigns to inform, entertain, provoke, motivate, delight and engage in order to add to the bottom line.

We strive for simplicity because we know that simple thoughts flow much more easily across all the media channels we use: DRTV, direct mail, digital, print, press and radio.

We’re fighting hard to resurrect outstanding writing skills in agencies because mediocre ones have quietly and steadily diluted campaign effectiveness.

And we get particularly heated about customer campaigns that fail to recognise the customer in us. Don’t you?

That said, we celebrate great work wherever we find it, whoever created it, because there is so very little of it about.

Apart from the sheer love and enjoyment of doing it, our reason for being in this business is to ensure that the relationships we create and nurture make our clients’ brands sell harder than they did before.  And we’re proud of the results we’re achieving for them.

Come and have a look around.
