About Us:

Founded in 1983, Goodby Silverstein & Partners is a full-service advertising agency whose mission is to create experiences that reach millions and even billions, but seem to speak only to you. We call this effect mass intimacy. The smarter, braver work that results from this approach brings people closer to our clients’ businesses, gets them to care, and urges them to take action. Because great work is only great if it reaps results.

We’re cultivating an inclusive place where people do their very best work—work that moves people and contributes to culture. To that end, our staff and our work need to reflect the world around us. It’s why we look for interesting talent in unexpected places. At GS&P, inclusivity demands that all people and all voices are seen, heard and valued. We believe we are better people and a better agency when more perspectives and more stories are shared and included. We’re making big strides toward these goals and are constantly excited by the difference it all makes.
