About

Proof is a collection of 45 diverse, talented people located in Austin, New York, DFW, Houston, Chicago, Georgia and Tennessee. We are independently owned and free from the red tape and creative limitations of a parent company. That’s probably why we’ve garnered our share of accolades over the years.

We’ve been featured in Ad Age, Adweek, Creativity, Communication Arts, Campaign, Fast Company, and The New York Times. Subway named us Agency of the Year three times, Expedia awarded us back-to-back Most Innovative Campaign honors, and we’ve been awarded Small Agency of the Year by Ad Age five times. Most recently, Proof won Ad Age’s 2024 A-List Award for Best Agency Culture. This latest honor is proof of our belief that focusing on creating a great working foundation for great people yields even greater results for them, our agency, and most importantly, our clients.

We are a Brand Liberation Agency®
At Proof, we aren’t like any other advertising agency. We approach everything differently and it starts with a deeply collaborative understanding of your brand, your objectives, and what makes you different. We believe all brands need to be liberated from something: old ideas, short-term gains vs. purpose-led strategies, chasing clicks vs. creating inspired content.

We partner with clients at any stage of their evolution to understand the business issues holding them back. We identify fundamental constrictions, and then collaborate to liberate them from those challenges. Proof exists to help clients win. We operate as a pivotal extension of your team, with a proven track record of creating innovative ways to help our clients stand out, including many digital firsts, new creative units and ways of tracking. We’re extremely proud of our proven track record of success using our Brand Liberation process to free brands from what’s holding them back, setting the foundation for every marketing decision and step taken in creating cohesive, breakthrough communications.

So, in functional form, we are a full-service agency partner, seamlessly integrating strategic and audience planning, media planning and buying, digital, social, content, advertising and communications. But what we really do is help you set your brand free.
