Confidant is proud to announce that we are now members of the Nostos Network , a community of fully-vetted, values-aligned independent marketing agencies, consultancies, studios, and more. We can do a lot in serving clients with our wide range of capabilities, but with Nostos, we maintain our independence while having a wider range of specialized independent agency partners to help us better deliver on a full 360 suite of marketing and tech expertise. At the founding of Confidant 9 years ago, we felt that to be a true confidant, brands should have a team across the table who can work through whatever puzzle keeps them up at night. At minimum, we should be multifaceted strategists who can help demystify the brand landscape. And, from that strategic capability we ought to be able to step into those needs and deliver work that makes an impact. Joining an independent network of like-minded independent agencies moves us further in that direction, allowing us to more fully deliver on 360 brand initiatives where we can bring more partners and collaborators to the unique needs of any given brand. In only a few weeks, this partnership paved the way to deeper collaboration on media planning and buying, and research capabilities, with many more collaborations to come.
