Copper is a digital transformation agency
Bridging the gap between where you are today to where you need to be tomorrow.
Clients today need an agency partner who can help them meet their digital challenges head-on. Copper is a team of seasoned thinkers and doers – strategists, technologists and designers – obsessed with unlocking your businesses’ digital potential.
More than redesigning websites and marketing material (don’t worry we do all that), it’s about supporting the internal transformation of processes, skills and technologies to drive digital innovation and successful leadership.

Working with the
right partner …
Why Copper?
-
SCOPE OF ABILITIES - the ability to get it done
Being at the forefront of the digital evolution for 20+ years, we’ve learnt a few things and the foremost is how to deliver.
It starts with defining and managing expectations, while gathering the right insights to inform any recommendations. We don’t just pitch the ‘big idea’ that gets everyone excited. We map out a plan and then roll up our sleeves to get it done.
-
KNOWLEDGE & EXPERTISE – the right stuff
With technologies, experiences, demands and resources constantly changing your agency partner needs to be smart, effective and proactive, to help you navigate delivery of your digital roadmap.
What makes Copper a digital transformation agency is the fact that our creative team thinks about all the possible delivery channels – from 140 characters to immersive video – the strategy team understands CRM, CMS and analytics, while our technologists believes in the importance of brand messaging.
Digital is in our DNA and right now this is the most exhilarating time to be a marketer.
-
CHEMISTRY – the right fit
More than how we think or what we do, it’s about adding value at every opportunity with the drive and passion to make you a success.
Copper is a small boutique agency born out of big agency rigor and methodologies – a local company, easy to visit, easy to talk to, and fun to work with. As your digital transformation agency, we’ll spend an inordinate amount of time to get to know you and your business. We’ll detect and prioritize the steps on your road to actionable digital concepts (be it products or services) that will put your business in sync with the future.
We understand you are not just looking for possibilities; you need to see results. -
PROVEN EXPERIENCE – walking the talk
The ‘proof is in the pudding’ as they say, and there’s no better way to appreciate our experience and expertise than by spending some time with us and getting to know our team.
You can also peruse our ‘Sample Work’ below or better yet speak to our biggest fans — our clients. They’re the best gauge of our value, and their success and retention is the way we measure our success. No different than their KPI’s and metrics, we are proud of our 90%+ client retention rate. Having worked with many of our clients for years we are often invited to sit with their leadership team serving as a natural extension of marketing; always confident that we have their success at the forefront of everything we do.
