Meet the team

EMILY COOKE

Founder / Director

Em started Brandshake in early 2023 with the urge to do ‘agency’ differently: long-term partnership over being execution monkeys. Work scopes that are robust, clear and therefore always ultra strategic and creative.

Em’s key strengths are brand and content strategy, socials and copywriting. She’s also skilled in brand identity development and art direction. Em’s spent most of her career in the fast pace of agencies, working with brands and senior business leaders as an extension of their team.

Her shtick is keeping things strategic and commercial. Less fluff, more funnel. She feels every (single) marketing, brand and design decision should be linked to a business objective, otherwise, what are we doing here?
