“Helping organizations grow for good.”
That’s our “why” at Lowand B. Hold Consulting. Why we jump out of bed most mornings. Why clients hire us and why they enjoy working with us. Those five words are packed with meaning. It’s the inspiration we feel when problem-solving and helping clients grow and protect their brands while making their world a better place.
LBH is an international full-service brand communications consultancy. Every story we tell, every brand we defend, every dollar we raise is grounded in research. We were built to do the work we love most – partnering with leaders to win through purpose driven growth. That means winning on whatever scoreboard matters most to you – building and protecting your reputation, revenue, increasing enrollment or membership, creating loyalty, beating the other guys. Winning requires strategy, creativity, engagement and measurement but we believe the most successful organizations are anchored by a Purpose. In a word, Why?
Lowand B. Hold speaks to the way we work and to our results, but mostly we like our name because it makes people smile. It’s also an expression of gratitude and wonder to the clients, colleagues and coaches who over the years have given us the gift of brilliant ideas, wisdom and friendship, three cornerstone values.
