# Mad Genius Agency > Full-Service Creative Agency ## About Sure, we're designers, developers, producers, writers, directors, and account experts—but that's more about what we do than it is who we are. We're geeks of various flavors. Our team consists of sports fans, puzzle lovers, movie nerds, and pet enthusiasts. Mad Genius is our people, and our people are dreamers, doers, planners, strategists, and obsessive learners, all drawing inspiration from our many, varied passions. Also, we love what we do. ## Company Overview **Name:** Mad Genius Agency **Type:** Full-Service Creative Agency **Location:** 279 S Perkins St., Ridgeland, MS 39157 **Phone:** (601) 605-6234 **Website:** https://madg.com/ ## Services & Capabilities ### Brand Design & Creative Services **Brand Strategy & Development:** Brands cannot control what people think about them. That's science. Mad Genius can, however, control the way brands present themselves to the public, directly impacting public perceptions. That's why we work with our clients on brand strategy development, and review everything they say, how they say it, and where they say it. From logo design to brand voice, we can help you put your best foot forward. While we may not be able to oversee what other people think, we can influence it. **Campaign Development:** If our creative team had a favorite thing to do, campaign development would be it: a singular idea, spoken in various voices, across multiple marketing channels, motivating the client's ideal audience(s) into action. When it comes to creative campaign strategy, Mad Genius uses our campaign board process to suss out the following: What should a brand say? How should they say it? Where should they say it? Who should they say it to? Answering those questions is like putting together a puzzle. We love puzzles. **Graphic Design:** Every creative agency has graphic designers. Unlike most, Mad Genius brings our graphic design team to the strategic conversation from day one. It's important that the people behind your logo design, marketing materials design, and brand identity design understand the bigger narrative. Whether developing brand identity systems, designing marketing collateral, or creating custom illustrations, our designers make sure every visual element serves your strategic goals. Because good design isn't just aesthetic—it's strategic. **Motion Graphics & Animation:** You know how powerful video is as a medium. Motion graphics and animation have the power to woo viewers and spur them into action—making animated marketing videos an invaluable weapon in any marketing toolkit. Lucky for you, Mad Genius has a flamboyance (which is the word for a group of flamingos) of designers, writers, and animators who specialize in motion graphics design, 2D animation, and video animation production. Audiences are like the T. rex from Jurassic Park: they can only see you when you're moving. **Copywriting:** Most of the team at Mad Genius are lexophiles. We enjoy using words to solve problems. To achieve this, we spend more time than we should considering the three elements to communication: the speaker, the message, and the audience. Sounds simple, right? Deceptively so. We wholeheartedly believe that these three elements must be considered with every single message we deliver (even the one you're reading right now). We're lovers of words, especially in word games, puzzles, anagrams, palindromes etc. (But you knew that, right?) ### Video Production **Commercial Video Production:** Each of us has a favorite TV commercial—a spot that hits at the right time, with the right message, and can create a sense of loyalty between a person and the brand behind it. Likewise, everyone has one video advertisement you can't stand, but can't get it out of your head, try as you might. It's got some earworm that people end up humming throughout their day. Good news: our video production team does both kinds—the memorable ones and the annoyingly catchy ones. **Social Media Video:** Successful social media videos are one of three things: A person with their camera out who happens to be in the right place at the right time to capture a once-in-a-lifetime event. Devised by a full-time influencer-level content genius who eats and breathes nothing but social video strategy. Born of a strategic social understanding cultivated by years of experimentation in Instagram video production, TikTok video creation, Facebook video content, and LinkedIn video marketing. The team at Mad Genius has done all three. We're excellent at the third. **Corporate Video & Training Production:** Want to know an industry secret? Corporate video production does not have to be boring. Informative? Sure. Process driven? No doubt. Boring? Not if you want your corporate videos to be effective. This is true whether a client needs training video production for employee onboarding, instructional video content for skill development, recruiting videos for talent acquisition, or educational videos for another informative vessel. If your team isn't watching, they're not learning. **Post-Production & Sound:** Everything that happens after the camera stops rolling falls under the banner of post-production and sound. The video editing, color correction, timing, motion graphics, sound design, Foley work, audio mixing and mastering, and more, is all done by a team of professionals who love this medium. Maybe too much. Whether you require audio post-production services, video color grading, sound mixing, or full post-production workflow management, we've got editors and audio engineers who obsess over every frame and every frequency. **Visual Effects:** Some things just can't be practically filmed. Godzilla wasn't a documentary. For that, there's VFX. From 3D modeling and animation to lighting simulation, motion tracking to character rigging and texturing, Mad Genius has it covered. Our visual effects team specializes in CGI integration, 3D rendering services, compositing, and motion graphics VFX that seamlessly blend with live-action footage. Whether you need product visualization, architectural rendering, or full 3D animation production, our visual effects artists are up for it. ### Photography **Corporate & Business Photography:** Corporate photography is a wide net. Perhaps an office requires some professional headshots for a new team, or detailed product photography shots of the products they recently launched, or maybe just office photography of the workspace itself. Our corporate portrait photography covers everything from executive headshots and team photography to corporate event photography. It isn't just about taking pictures—it's about capturing the personality and professionalism that makes your team memorable. We can even do a silly one. **Portrait Photography:** A hard truth about portrait photography: not all the people on the planet are beautiful.* Mad Genius portrait photography services can't promise our clients that they'll look like Hollywood stars, but we can promise that any team will look as good as they're capable of looking through our professional portrait photography. Whether you need corporate portrait photography, professional headshots, or team portrait photography, we're an incredibly talented lot at making people look their absolute best. *We're not talking about you. You look great. **Matterport 3D Photography:** When a client requires 3D photography services to capture a space, Matterport 3D photography is the gold standard solution. Our 360-degree photography and 3D virtual tour services work perfectly for real estate virtual tours, commercial space documentation, retail showrooms, and facility management. At long last, you can explore these spaces from the comfort of your La-Z-Boy, through immersive virtual tours for marketing or 3D space scanning for documentation. We love using this technology. Give us a reason. Please. **Location Photography:** Mad Genius's location photography services team will weather sleet, snow, heat, hurricane, or a treacherous climb for the right shot (don't tell them we're saying this). Our commercial location photography covers everything from outdoor photography sessions and environmental portraits to real estate photography and construction site documentation. Whether you need industrial photography, lifestyle location shoots, or commercial property photography, our on-location photography services bring professional lighting and expertise to any setting. **Product & Food Photography:** Food photography is harder than it looks. (And disgusting. That's not real syrup on those pancakes.) Our product photography services cover everything from e-commerce product photography and catalog photography to lifestyle product shoots and food and beverage photography. We make food look delicious and products look too hot to handle. Mad Genius professional product photography transforms ordinary items into something worthy of an early morning Black Friday brawl. ### Website Design & Development **UX/UI Design:** A beautiful website nobody can navigate is like a luxury car without a steering wheel. That's why Mad Genius's team of UX and UI design experts comb through every aspect of our clients' web design and user experience. Our user experience design process includes user research, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing to ensure getting from A to B is seamless. We create user-centered design that actually works for real people, through website UX design, mobile app UX design, and complete UI/UX consulting. **Custom Web Development:** Mad Genius knows that brands aren't cookie-cutter. Websites shouldn't be, either. Mad Genius's flock of frontend web developers oversee the melding of hope and honesty, leveraging JavaScript, React, HTML/CSS, and other coding languages to allow users the opportunity to interact with and enjoy a custom website. And, by proxy, a brand. From e-commerce development, WordPress development, or completely custom website development, we create original digital experiences that actually work. **Web App Development:** For those looking for a particularly niche flavor of interactivity, Mad Genius's coding commanders develop custom web applications that are delivered through the internet—no download required. Our web app development geniuses create custom web-based applications and progressive web apps crafted for our client's specific needs. In other words, if your ideal web-based solution doesn't exist, we'll make it. This allows our clients the opportunity to provide custom web experiences as unique as they are. **Mobile App Development:** When you want mobile applications specific to an operating system, you require Mad Genius's mobile app development services. Our iOS app development and Android app development teams create custom mobile apps that live directly on the user's device. They can even integrate with native device features to send real-time push notifications or allow authentication via biometric security like fingerprint or facial recognition. A lot of those words sound made-up, but they're very real. And yes, it's as cool as it sounds. **Search Engine Optimization (SEO):** If people can't find a business, does it really exist? Our SEO consulting geniuses provide comprehensive SEO strategy including keyword research, content optimization, local SEO for businesses, on-page SEO, and link building strategies. Then we identify opportunities to strengthen their search rankings through content marketing, blog SEO strategy, and Google My Business optimization. Being found online isn't just about keywords—it's about creating a digital presence that search engines and humans actually love. ### Media Planning & Advertising Services **Digital Advertising:** Mad Genius's digital marketing experts build custom advertising campaigns leveraging a unique balance of strategy, design, and technical capability. We use programmatic advertising, geofencing campaigns, retargeting ads, PPC management, Google Ads campaigns, Facebook advertising, display advertising, and video advertising to make sure our clients are there to their audiences. Our digital advertising management covers everything from search engine marketing to social media advertising and YouTube advertising—converting browsers into buyers. **Print Advertising:** Print advertising isn't dead. Print marketing materials like brochures, banners, and trade show displays remain in high-demand, particularly as audiences around the globe turn toward tangible brand experiences. From brochure design, poster design, direct mail campaigns, outdoor advertising, billboard design, or trade show materials, we create print campaigns worth remembering. Our print marketing seamlessly integrates with your digital marketing efforts to create cohesive campaigns that work across every touchpoint. **TV Advertising:** Television advertising—traditional TV or CTV—remains an essential asset of any effective marketing campaign. Mad Genius understands the complex mix of millions of data points that indicate which channels or programming are best positioned to reach the right audience at the right time. Our media experts analyze deterministic data, probabilistic insights, browsing behavior, and shopping history to inform TV media buying decisions. Less waste, the best rates, measurable results, and maximum impact. **Experiential Services:** Over the past several years, advertisers around the world have seen a dramatic increase in the value of brand experiences over products. People want to engage with brands who have values similar to their own through experiential marketing. Mad Genius's team of media mavens know how to leverage event marketing, pop-up experiences, trade show activations, interactive marketing events, brand experience design, or guerrilla marketing campaigns, and more. We can't wait for you to experience (ba-dum tsss) our great service. ### Marketing Strategy **Brand Fusion:** It takes a transformational, audience-focused brand strategy to become an industry leader. Our simple yet powerful Brand Fusion workshop clearly defines your goal, unifies your teams, focuses your resources, and drives growth through brand strategy consulting that actually works. From brand development services to leadership alignment workshops, and a comprehensive brand positioning strategy, we facilitate sessions that turn abstract brand concepts into actionable business strategies and put all leadership on the same page. **Customer Journey Mapping:** Does your brand actively design experiences that turn customers into passionate advocates? Our customer journey mapping and customer experience strategy analyzes every brand touchpoint—from awareness to advocacy. And our customer experience consulting services include customer journey optimization, and experience design workshops that transform how people interact with your brand. We turn casual buyers into brand evangelists. It's nice when people like you, but it's better when they love you. **Go-to-Market Strategy:** Product launches can be scary. Without a clear and proven go-to-market strategy, the chance of success is small and the risk of wasting resources is huge. Our go-to-market strategy consulting includes market research and validation, competitive analysis, and launch planning that reduces risk and accelerates success. Through product launch strategy for a new offering, market entry strategy, or comprehensive product marketing strategy development, Mad Genius turns scary launches into dramatic entrances accompanied by doves and fireworks. **Market Positioning Strategy:** Your market is evolving, competitors are circling, and customers are changing. Time for a market positioning strategy that gives your brand a clear growth path with confidence and focus. Our strategic positioning services include competitive analysis, market research, and positioning statement development that cut through marketplace noise. From brand repositioning to competitive positioning strategy, we create brand positioning frameworks that establish clear market territory. Because being everything to everyone means being forgettable. **Vision Casting:** Is your brand thinking big enough? Are your teams and resources focused on simply getting through the day rather than growing something better? Are you eating enough fiber? Mad Genius facilitates strategic planning sessions with your leadership team to explore, define, and develop a fresh, clear business vision for the future with specific action items to get you there. The result: teams that rally, stakeholders that align, and driving ambitions that transform into a shared mission.
