As the creator economy continues to reshape how brands build awareness and drive sales, performance branding agency Morning Walk is proving that the most effective campaigns don’t come from simply partnering with creators – it comes from thinking like them. By approaching strategy through the lens of culture, storytelling and agility, the agency is helping brands show up with content that connects and campaigns that convert.

“In today’s landscape, the line between brand and creator is increasingly thin. The difference-maker isn’t just reach, it’s relevance,” said Steve Simoncic, Partner and Chief Creative Officer at Morning Walk. “Because our team thinks like makers, we’re able to identify stories that move people and make a real business impact for our clients.”

From travel and CPG to wellness and motorsports, Morning Walk has helped brands harness the creator economy to drive performance. Influencers are embedded within larger performance branding ecosystems, supported by smart segmentation, precision media, and rapid content iteration. Recent efforts have included a national family-focused influencer push for Kalahari Resorts, athlete-led storytelling for OPTIMA Batteries, and a pet-first user-generated content campaign for Kradle.

Morning Walk’s integrated approach blends creative strategy, cultural fluency, and a proprietary AI-powered toolkit called the Super:Human Sidekick - a suite of tools designed to accelerate content development, audience targeting, and CRM performance.

“Our tech suite isn’t here to replace human capital - it's designed to empower it,” said Steven Wroblewski, VP, Director of Analytics and CRM. “With the Super:Human Sidekick, we can turn insight into action faster, build deeper personalization into every campaign, and ultimately deliver greater value to our clients.”

That creative agility extends into Morning Walk’s approach to production, too.

“We’ve started using AI to prototype concepts in real-time, giving our teams a faster way to ideate and get client feedback while the work is still in motion,” said Janson Straub, VP, Group Creative Director. “And we’ve taken it a step further by developing our own internal app that aggregates all of our creative AI tools. It’s a centralized, owned platform that puts every prompt, plug-in and generator in one place - built by our team, for our team and clients.”

As influencer marketing matures into a $250 billion global industry (Goldman Sachs), Morning Walk is focused on helping brands navigate it with creativity, speed, and intention. With a forward-thinking structure built around brand agents, task agents and AI-powered tools, the agency is building campaigns that feel more human, more relevant, and more effective.
