MISSION

Studio 5x5 tells the stories of brands doing good. 

Wielding creativity as a tool to face today’s challenges, we mix strategic communication, experience design, and content marketing to shine a light on organizations making the world a better place. And, we help brands close the gap between good intentions and rewarding actions.  

Clear communication leads employees to higher morale and lower turnover, gives customers a brand to believe in, and provides shareholders the confidence that responsible business practices lead to profitable outcomes.  

Historically, mission-critical military operations relied on radio communications to deliver orders loud and clear. A rating of 1 to 5 was used in reporting back signal STRENGTH and CLARITY. To be heard 5 by 5 meant that the message was being heard LOUD and CLEAR.  

With our founder’s interest and experience in aviation and commercial radio, the historical parlance naturally conveyed the essence of our purpose. Studio 5x5 delivers your message with strength and clarity and your audience reads you loud and clear.
