REDEFINING GREATNESS

We founded Those Guys Are Great to give marketers and brands of all sizes access to the industry’s top talent. From research to strategy, to creative, production and post, we’ve got it all covered. And we do it without the baggage that comes along with big agencies. Like huge fees, sluggish processes and work that gets handed off to less-experienced teams. 

Because you don’t need a big agency to do great creative work. You just need great talent.

We’re Dave Hedeman and Steve Rice. Maybe the biggest names you’ve never heard of. But we can almost guarantee that you’ve seen – or heard – our work.

We’re advertising, PR and entertainment industry vets with more than 50 years of combined experience – most recently as executive creative directors at TBWA\Chiat-Day NY. And our small-but-mighty team consists exclusively of executive-level pros at the top of their game. 

But it’s what we’ve done with that experience that matters to you. We’ve all helped big and small brands not only get noticed, but also to build opinion and drive sales. And that’s why you’re here, isn’t it?

We’re great at crafting stories that move consumers. Even if it’s one frame of a social post. Sure, you could always make something that’s just cool. But if it doesn’t connect on a human level to build your brand or sell your product, we just see it as a lost opportunity.

WHO ARE THOSE GUYS?

WE’VE HELPED THESE BRANDS MAKE GREAT THINGS

It’s pretty simple. We’re people who learn the brand, live the brand and then tell your story in ways we know will succeed for you. We’re as strategic in our thinking as we are creative. It’s why we’ve been so successful for 15 years as partners, and for more than 50 years combined.

LET’S MAKE SOMETHING GREAT TOGETHER

It all starts with a conversation. So let’s have one. With no obligations and no pressure. Because that’s how all great relationships should begin.
