WHY WE EXIST
Because we care more about our clients’ success and the work, than agency profits. Granted profitability matters, but it doesn’t drive us, it follows us. We do great work and success follows. It has for over ten years.
Angie Maddox and Mark Sorensen started the agency after years of working at large, tier one agencies. Both are very successful and respected in their fields of PR and Advertising. They’ve won awards, made clients happy and moved clients’ growth trajectories.
They started Seed Factory to bring the best of large agency Creative and PR skills to a nimble, independent agency culture. They wanted to be an agency that was owned and run by makers, not managers.
Today, we have an amazing team, while continuing to exist for the sole purpose of doing great omni-channel work for national and regional manufacturers, CPGs and service providers.
Let’s talk. You’ll soon feel the passion we have for every client engagement.

Capabilities
As an integrated marketing agency based in Atlanta, we focus on digital and traditional advertising, PR and design, including social media, branding, positioning and creative. We work with national and regional B2C and B2B brands that care about ideas and craft. Often times we work with challenger brands, but also with some category leaders to keep them ahead of the curve. From project and creative briefs, through ideas and execution, you can be assured you’ll get talented people working on your brand. Because of our backgrounds at large agencies, we know what it takes to stand out. But now we operate in a much more nimble package because you have to move at the speed of digital in today’s marketing world. With a team of strategists, media planners, creatives and PR professionals, we have a huge network of the most talented people in the country and in-house. If there’s a part of the project or agreed upon strategy that doesn’t play to our strengths, we’ll collaborate with another agency of your choosing or that we recommend.

Advertising
Emotion and human insights are how we connect brands with audiences. People make decisions with their hearts, then justify with facts, figures and benefits that support their decisions. We get to B2C and B2B audiences by focusing on extended benefits, then rationalize with product or service benefits, facts and support points. We use positioning, tone or voice (humor, wit, heart-strings), shared-experiences, entertainment, education and more to build your brand.

As Yoda once said, “Smaller in numbers are we, but larger in mind.” That’s the agency model that works for us and our clients. The in-house, day-to-day team is small, smart and efficient, but our network of long-term contractors is large and accomplished.
We bring our knowledge to your brand in a nimble, efficient package. Take a look at our leadership and some of our Super Team:

Testimonials
We’re fairly humble and even if we weren’t, we’d like you to hear from someone else. To us, that’s the power of PR—getting others to write about your brand. So we’ve done it for ourselves with a little pleading, prodding and begging. We’re delighted with the below testimonials and we think you’ll be delighted working with us.
Social
Social
Feeding the social media beast takes a concerted effort. Like anything, it requires time, dedication and quality content, especially when building engagement. Once we understand your brand, conduct competitive and industry audits and create the right tone and approach by social channel, we work to proactively share your voice with your online community. We work with the algorithm, not against it. We create great social media content with stellar engagement.
