Every great story has a moment when everything changes.
For us, that moment started with frustration – the kind that builds slowly over years until it ignites something unstoppable.
We were two friends who’d spent countless hours watching the marketing landscape evolve – or rather, fail to evolve. Everywhere we looked, we saw the same story playing out: passionate business owners reluctantly running their own marketing because they couldn’t find professionals they trusted.
Then came our trip to New York.
Between wandering city streets and sharing dreams over lobster rolls at our favourite spot in FiDi, something shifted. The energy of the city, the taste of possibility – it all crystallised into confidence. Kamila bought a small notebook with a red lobster on the cover. At the time, it was just a souvenir. We didn’t know it would become something more.
The word ‘rage’ chose us before we fully understood its meaning. Beyond its angry connotations, it also means “intense passion” – the kind that fuels positive change, that drives innovation, that refuses to settle for average.
That was us. That is us.
