we’re part of your team

We are fortunate to have many on-going client relationships that have brought mutual long-term success.

Our work over the years has encompassed award winning and business building programs for highly successful US and International companies and organizations. From start-ups to Fortune 500 companies, we work with clients in a wide range of industries, providing creative expertise across multiple platforms. By helping our clients offer more, we’ve been able to grow with them.

We believe that the best creative work is the product of collaboration. We consider ourselves an extension of our client’s team, working with them to design experiences that will maximize their image and connect with their audience.

I have worked with Alternatives for almost 15 years on large established brands as well as smaller start-ups. They bring a unique combination of thoughtful strategic thinking founded in solid consumer insights together with no nonsense execution and blue-chip New York City creative talent. They do this while also being mindful of costs and the bottom line. A truly rare combination in today’s world.

We have worked with Alternatives for the past five years. They have played an instrumental role in the branding, design and further development and modernization of our sites across the board. Being that our websites are based on and require meticulous attention to detail, we could not have chosen a better partner than Alternatives to guide us through the process. Their innovative ideas, patience, ability to listen and sense of understanding of the nature of a business and its creative language as well as flawless execution, sets them apart from the rest. We are beyond grateful for their partnership and completely confident that they will always deliver the best quality product and end result. We look forward to working on the next project together!

More than a creative agency, Alternatives has been a long-term strategic partner and key member of our team since 2003. They bring innovative ideas that have helped us strengthen and extend our brands via licensing while growing revenue year after year.

Alternatives is the best marketing company I have worked with—bar none. They have done my marketing, they have done my website, and now they are my go to marketing company on Hotel Impossible.

Working with the Alternatives team was easy. We expressed our vision, they listened and executed flawlessly. They guided us along the process and we were fearless because of it. We are our brand and they were able to help us make that connection and expression through our packaging, marketing and website design. There is no greater feeling than working with a team who genuinely believes in your dreams and your product. We are so grateful for the opportunity to work with the entire team and look forward to expanding our brand with them. We’d highly recommend working with the Alternatives team. They are warm, friendly, and provides stellar service.

The all-star team at Alternatives has become a trusted, long-term partner to our business. This is far more than your grandparents’ standard agency. Up front, they invested the time and energy to build an intimate understanding of our strategic priorities and challenges. They then applied that understanding toward the execution of our full corporate rebranding and website redesign. And they NAILED it.

Alternatives is the epitome of professional service. They go above and beyond to produce quality work that surpasses expectations. Most importantly, Alternatives recognizes that communication is vital to building professional relationships. They have done a superb job at building and maintaining the British Virgin Islands Tourist Board’s Seeds of Love website. For these reasons, I highly recommend them for your branding and creative needs.

Alternatives took what we had and crafted the elements into a stronger brand image. We were helped every step of the way with doable changes.

Alternatives has quickly become a critical extension of the Blue Engine family. With an intuitive understanding of our brand and vision, they've brought to life countless pieces of powerful collateral in partnership with our team. From crafting digital campaigns to branding our new office space, we look to Alternatives to capture the look and feel that defines Blue Engine.

Emily BrenesCommunications & Development | Blue Engine

When we made the decision to rebrand our company we selected Alternatives because of their instant ability to understand us. They created a clear cohesive brand image with attention to details that were beyond our expectations.

Amanda AugusteBrand Marketing Manager | …me Too Shoes

PrimaLoft has worked very closely with the team from Alternatives for many years. They have entrenched themselves in our business and have worked closely with our team—at all levels from the assistant to the CEO, and from the sales & marketing department to the research and development department—to understand our business and to immerse themselves in numerous markets we serve.
