OUR STORY
Our journey began in the halls of tech giants and the classrooms of Columbia University, where our founder Jazelle Foster honed strategies that drive digital success. While working with major brands, she noticed a significant gap: the powerful techniques used by companies weren't being adapted for creative entrepreneurs who needed them most.
Founded in 2017, Creatives Meet Marketing was born from a simple observation, creative professionals excel at their craft but often struggle with effectively marketing themselves in the digital landscape. We set out to change that by building a bridge between high-level marketing strategies and the unique needs of artists, performers, and creative businesses.
As a Black-owned, female-led agency, we bring diverse perspectives to every project. Our team's backgrounds span theater, film, design, technology, and business—creating a unique blend of creative understanding and strategic expertise that sets our approach apart.
