The Agency

I founded Advisory Board in 2020 after over a decade as editor with a variety of luxury fashion magazines. My idea was to provide what I have often been missing in my journalistic life: support from brands that would allow me to perform every editor’s most daunting duty – filling white space in a fun way. Too often, I felt left alone while tasked to produce content on a product without a story to tell. It sometimes felt like having dinner with someone who doesn’t have anything to say.

With ADVISORY BOARD, we aim to have a different kind of dinner party: We want our clients to be seen, known, and – most of all – loved. And we do what it takes, making sure that we have a good story and communicate it in a witty way. Hence, the core of our work is the story of a brand and its intelligent distribution.

We believe, particularly in these times, that human contact cannot be overrated, and therefore we prioritize working in the most personal ways within a tightly-knit circle of media professionals, many of whom we are fortunate to call our friends.

Talking of friends, we passionately include our clients in this group. We believe that in order to provide excellent communication services you have to fully immerse yourself in a brand which is why we work with an in-house approach. Between Advisory Board and client it’s never „we” and „them” – it’s us. 

We’d be thrilled to tell your story.
