We’re Story-doers, not story-tellers!

In the past, people & companies created brands or products then made-up a story to help get it to market. Today, some of the best brands in the world have a story at their core, that they genuinely live through every touchpoint from the very beginning. A story and a set of values that are greater than commercial targets and ambition. We help companies define their values and story’s and communicate them in a way that SELLS!

The companies that thrive when faced with DISRUPTION & TECHNOLOGY challenges have one thing in common: They define the business they’re in beyond core product offering, category or enabling technology. To outlast disruption, they orient their business around a lasting benefit they bring to the world.

At Salt & Candy, we believe that this is the key to survival. Having a clear and generous purpose and taking actions to bring it to life in the world – is essential to remaining focused, relevant and proactive in the rapidly changing business landscape.
