What makes us different

Just Add Joy lives where brand strategy meets creator culture.

We are the Creator Directors

We combine the strategic rigour and creative excellence of traditional advertising with deep expertise in unlocking the true value of creator partnerships.

We call this being Creator Directors: translating brand briefs into partnerships creators want to make and audiences want to spend time with.

It’s how we turn commercial objectives into content that enriches, rather than interrupts.

Built in podcast media

We learnt our craft where audience trust runs deepest: podcasting.

Podcast creators are the most trusted voices in media*, and that trust travels with them across YouTube, social, live events, community channels and more.

We’ve spent years understanding how brands can enter these creator worlds without breaking that crucial audience-creator bond.

Podcasting is where we honed that skill. The wider creator economy is where we apply it.

Independent by design

Just Add Joy is an independent agency.

Our advantage is access: trusted, direct relationships across talent, media, podcasting and production, built over decades in the industry.

We create unique opportunities that can’t be found anywhere else. We know who to speak to, how to shape the deal, and how to make the right partnerships happen.

No network inventory to sell.
No studio roster to push.

We recommend only the perfect solution for the brief, working with any creator, platform or studio to deliver the right talent and channel mix through one consolidated media buy.
