Radically better
You’re here to start something. Shake something. Stir the pot and spike the punch*
Good. So are we.
Young Folks is an indie agency for brands brave enough to do things differently. The line crossers. The truth tellers. The doers and disruptors.
If you’re a purpose-driven challenger brand that’s ready to steal customers from the bigger, bad-for-the-world giant in your category, pull up a chair.
We saved a spot for you.
We build the kind of brands that don’t just look good and hold the moral high ground, they win.
That means defining your brand strategy, crafting an iconic visual and verbal identity, then turning it into marketing momentum. Always-on channels keep the wheels turning, while smart, strategic big moves grab attention, shift demand, and take market share.
*Not literally, because that would be a bit unethical. But you get the gist.
Purpose-driven challenger brands choose us
The visionaries, disruptors, game changers, and rule breakers. The ones asking the better questions, not just shouting the biggest answers. You don’t need to be saving the world (but we’re here for that, too). You just need to be trying to leave it a little better than you found it.
So if that’s you, you’ll fit right in.
Here’s the proof
You’re in good hands

You can’t optimise your way out of irrelevance
There’s an untapped opportunity sitting inside most marketing teams. It’s not another channel. It’s not another audience segment. It’s not more automation, optimisation, or A/B tests. It’s better creative. The kind of creative that earns attention, not just rents it....
Why Inclusive Sans 2.0 is the typeface the world needs
Typefaces form the backbone of an inclusive brand experience. They can welcome, or they can exclude. They can slow people down, or help them feel seen. That’s the philosophy behind Inclusive Sans 2.0, designer Olivia King’s latest release: an open-source sans serif...
Amplifying Nusantara’s storytelling, sustainability, and seriously good design

In the battle against the AI bots, tone of voice is your brand’s last defence (and greatest weapon)
I remember the day ChatGPT made its way into the zeitgeist, and my office. I was barraged with a flock of questions like ‘are you scared?’, ‘is this the end of copywriting?’, ‘do you think it’s coming for your job?’. Every day, it feels like another industry gets...
