About Blackstone Agency
Blackstone Agency is a well-established agency with many long term, great clients. Whether it be through our marketing approach or even our internal meetings, at Blackstone Agency we pride ourselves in being unique and actually thinking. We do things with a purpose. We do things with passion. We do things that truly make a difference. We launch campaigns that make the unknown brands become household names. What we don’t do is fluff. We don’t live behind smoke and mirrors or even create big presentations that tickle ears and waste time and money. We believe in doing great work without all the theatrics. Why? Because we truly believe in authenticity. And we get to do it in a really really relaxed office environment/yacht. “This past year, with office leasing rates that were insane I decided to break away from the traditional mold of being in an office and become a [marketing] agency at sea. Our office or sometimes referred to as the BOffice is named AgenSea. No one dreads going to the BOffice. Not just because it’s a yacht but because it’s a professional place where real work gets done by collaborating together without distractions or normal office politics.” – Grif Blackstone, President of Blackstone Agency.
