OUR THINKING
What we believe in
Experiences form the basis of all human relationships with other people and with the world around us.
We believe this is the same for brands. Great brands make lasting impressions on us as a result of continual, positive moments of interaction.
These experiences influence satisfaction, build loyalty, and create emotional attachment.
The customer is at the centre of the idea. We place intense focus on the consumer’s needs to ensure that the response to the client’s challenge is led by an insight that will connect and result in change.
Connecting the dots between every consumer touch-point creates cohesion and enables consumers to truly connect with the brand in a meaningful and long-term way.
We believe in asking pertinent questions.
We believe in exploring numerous answers.
We believe business is personal.
We believe in integration.
We believe in keeping the ladder steady for anyone who is ready to climb up.
We believe in purpose-led brands.
We believe in redefining experiences.
We believe that communication can affect the balance sheet and affect organizational legacy.
We believe in people.
We are CUB3D.

OUR ETHOS
We ensure that we understand your business strategy and objectives as well as marketing strategy.
This keeps us honest, so we know when to say no and constantly question the relevance of everything we create.
The people you deal with are empowered to make decisions. We don’t have to wait for someone in a different time zone to make decisions.
We need you to win.
We’re small enough to treat each of our clients as the big fish, because when you grow, we grow.
We’re not experts in everything, so we’ve formed strong collaborative relationships with various companies to help us deliver the best idea in its best form.
We are as interested as we are interesting. We are constantly learning and asking questions so that we can have better conversations for you and with you.
OUR WORK
We are led by intelligence, not by the medium. We believe that the solution (the magic) has to come from the strategy (the facts). We pride ourselves on being able to tailor-make solutions for our clients and provide them with the most appropriate and uncompromised response to their challenge in optimal time.
