Services
brand studio
Frank Studio can be your brand and marketing partner and provider.
Activating a marketing strategy requires additional expertise and production capacity, often including analysis, SEO, performance marketing, email automation and more. I can assemble and manage a trusted team of specialists, or we can seek the right team together. The team will be your providers, while I will lead strategy, creative direction and project management. As your creative director, I will ensure cohesion and a consistent brand personality across all platforms.
specialist
Frank Studio can be one of your specialists.
My core skills lie in strategic creativity, including positioning, branding, art direction, design, and copywriting, with expertise in visual identity and cross-media campaigns.
Experience
I studied international marketing and gained experience at a large export company in West Jutland and Germany before moving into graphic design and advertising.
Since 1998, I have worked as an art director and creative director for clients such as Puma, Audi, IBM and Royal Unibrew, as well as many smaller companies. Along the way, I co-founded and ran Openminded agency with two partners from 2005 to 2013.
I established Frank Studio in 2017 and have also taken on longer in-house assignments—including two years as CMO at a sizeable IT company. This has given me experience from both agency and client perspectives: developing strong strategies and creative ideas, and turning them into priorities, decisions and action within an organisation.

Customer profile
Maybe you're a mid-sized company, realising your sales need branding and awareness. Well-known brands convert 3–4 times better across channels, and most new B2B relationships begin with a search on Google, ChatGPT or both.
Maybe you're used to working with advertising agencies, but could see yourself in a more flexible short-time-to-market setup with specialists and a budget that goes exclusively to the task (more bang for the buck).
Maybe your in-house team handles most of it, but you'd like support in the strategic and creative areas.
