300+ awards — including Best of Show, People's Choice, and multiple Special Judges Distinctions — all since we started in 2020. Our little pandemic baby sure is growing up fast.
Doing something because it worked before — or because your competitors are doing it — is logical and rational, but human behavior is seldom logical or rational, it’s emotional. When our brains have processed something before, they tune it out. But when we do something different, unusual, even subversive — something that contrasts what everyone else is doing — our brains can’t help but notice. Creativity is all about finding new ways to communicate familiar ideas and concepts. It's about learning from the data, then running the other way.
If you're an organization genuinely trying to create awareness and action, creativity is your best shot — and so is Coin. What's already been done has already been done, and what worked in the past is no indicator it'll work again — in fact, it might be the best indicator that it won't work again.
Coin Creative was founded in 2020 by Erick Worrell (copywriter, behavioralist, and creative director) and Abbie Sears (illustrator, designer, and creative director). Since then, we've racked up more than 300 Telly, ADDY, and AMA awards, including Best in Show, multiple Special Judges Distinctions, People's Choice, and even a special MOSAIC award for our efforts supporting the creative community through internships and shadowing programs, 1:1 mentorship, and more accessible and approachable networking.
We're the region's most award-winning creative agency since 2020 and we're growing, modestly and thoughtfully, through highly creative work, meaningful communication, and ethical contracts with our clients, vendors, subcontractors, and even other agencies.

Coin is one of just a handful of agencies with a real, deliberate, research-driven process for naming organizations. Thanks for the guidance, Rob Meyerson — we'll take it from here.
Coin builds problem-solving systems to address logical constraints and emotional impulses alike, developing not just visual aesthetics but also messaging, personality, and voice.
Coin's founders are your outsourced Chief Creative Officers, here to build big ideas, concepts, scripts, templates, and ongoing production items to help your team be awesome.
Coin has no specialty, no service area, and no area of focus. Quite the opposite, in fact: We crave chaos and variety, and you should, too. Working with a niche agency means your work is going to look an awful lot like someone else's work in another market, which sounds fab if you want to be hotel #17, nonprofit #34, or mambo #5, but we're pretty sure you don't. If you want something that strikes contrast, gets noticed, and leaves your peers racing to catch up to you, you found us. Our work extends across industries, organization types, sizes, shapes, and locations.
