Empower

We combine Creative and Media to Empower brands. 

Empower was born out of media, but in our 35-year company history we have evolved into so much more. The creative ideas inform the media plan. Media planning informs creative ideas. 

This cooperation leads to innovation on both sides of the equation. 

Recognized as an Ad Age Agency A-List Standout, Campaign AOY agency marketing team recipient and former Mediapost Agency of the Year, our award-winning integrated team of experts in creative, media planning and buying, word of mouth marketing, production and analytics. ​

Some of our biggest fans include Tempur Sealy, Fifth Third Bank, Gorilla Glue, TriHealth, Brooks Running, Jack Link’s, V-Tech, Bush Brothers, Wendy’s, GNC, Famous Footwear, Ashley HomeStore and Rust-Oleum.  

Empower is headquartered in the historic Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of downtown Cincinnati and has a rapidly growing Chicago office. Located in the city’s bustling River North neighborhood – Empower’s Chicago team is just steps from the Merchandise Mart.  

While much has changed over the course of our 35-year company history, some things remain: we are transparent, fiercely independent and we will constantly challenge the media status quo.
