Tethos:

Creative. Ideas. Strategy. Design. Results. Trust. Fun! Elegant simplicity. 1+1=3. Good for the planet. It’s visual communications... plus character. It’s transmitting your ethos.

It’s +ethos.

Doing something that matters.

 

We had a realization: in our personal lives we were all giving quite a bit to great causes, and yet much of that was kept separate from our business lives. We were working hard to make money... just so that we could later give it away. In looking deeper, we saw that that methodology was inefficient, less fun, and less rewarding than it could be. We wanted to do something that matters.

Thus, Tethos was born: where doing good is a core principle. Where doing good is also great for business. This led to 5 core Change Agent programs:

Ethical clients: We're selective with our choice of clients; and only choose to work with organizations which are leading their industry in being socially responsible. Does this mean you must be a saint... or at least a non-profit? No. But if you're an ethical organization that truly cares to make a difference, then we're a great fit.

15% Giving: A minimum of 15% of all Tethos project time is donated to non-profit causes. Thus, if you book us on a 100 hour project, then 15 to 25 hours will be donated to a non-profit -- often one you have suggested. (Or, if you're a non-profit ... help us find an ethical client, and we'll handle your projects!)

Tethos Idea Incubator (aka The Thinkubator): With a world-class team that cares about our planet, we develop quite a few grand ideas. And perhaps we're a bit crazy; but we will post ideas on how to change the world freely on our blog and/or contact appropriate organizations and share the idea. No obligation. If our ideas can do good, we want them out in the world, doing good. All we ask is credit for the initial idea.

Tethos Branding Incubator: Love one of our world-changing ideas? Great ... bring it back to us, and we'll create the branding, messaging, and business plan, at little or no up-front cost. (Have a great idea that wasn't ours? Let's chat and see how we can help you bring it to the world.)

The Tethosphere: By joining our ranks as a client or partner, you've entered what we call the Tethosphere: a place where socially aware organizations help each other. We make and encourage connections that do good, and refer business between all of our partners and clients. 

It's easy to become a change agent yourself. Call us, and let's figure out how we can do good business together.
