Master your message

Our mission at 100 Years is to master the message for clients and their brand to give their ideas a life of their own and help them achieve their business goals.

We help brands achieve their goals through imaginative and truthful communication with an emphasis on time, humor, and a bit of what we like to call magic. Magical realism paints a realistic view of the world while also adding magical elements, often blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. We bring this artistic flair to real messages for clients to establish them as leaders within their industry and personalize them in a humanistic way.

We value your time

Studies have shown that those who value time are happier than those who value money. While we understand these things go hand in hand, time is important to us. We don’t want to waste our time, your time, or your audience’s time. That’s why we strive to keep our messaging clear and concise to portray meaning and authority with clarity and purpose.

Our company name

Referencing the novel, 100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, our company name was similarly inspired by the themes of time, fate, humor, and magic. We work from a creative mindset inspired by these themes of magical realism and imagination across time and execute projects like a modern cornerstone company bridging the gap between creativity and conventionality.
