From a campaign couch to the world stage
In 2016, Sean Topham and Ben Guerin were running digital operations for political campaigns out of a cramped apartment in New Zealand. No big agency. No corporate backing. Just a belief that the rules of influence were changing, and that speed, creativity, and conviction could beat budgets and bureaucracy.
That belief paid off. Our work caught the attention of political leaders around the world. Within two years, we were running campaigns across four continents. Within five, we'd become the go-to agency for high-stakes influence, from elections that reshape nations to brand battles that define industries.
Today, TG operates from New York, London, Sydney, and Auckland. But we've never lost the scrappy, campaign-trail mindset that got us here. We still move faster than news cycles. We still believe in the power of a message that actually lands. And we still only take on fights we believe in.
The values we live by
Outcomes beat awards
It's not just about the trophy shelf, it's about delivering results that exceed KPIs and make our clients happy
Different works
Respecting and celebrating diversity leads to better creativity
Work is play
A happy and positive workplace isn't just great for morale, it's the secret sauce that leads to brilliant work and turbocharged productivity.
Best can be better
There is always room to improve, the greatest risk is to stand still
