Ismail Ahmad - Founder at ISH & CO

 

ISH & CO is a creative agency that is built upon a simple marriage - QUALITY x SPEED

The founder of the company, Ish, was a former medical student turned entrepreneur. As a novice business person he quickly realized that the art of digital communication was critical especially as commerce turned more digital.

Following his departure from medical school, he cofounded and bootstrapped a fashion brand called Rastah which works with disenfranchised artisans in South Asia. Since the brands inception in 2018, it has been featured in publications such as Forbes, Vogue, BBC News, HYPEBEAST, as well as seen worn by celebrities such as French Montana, Justin Beiber, Timothée Chalamet, amongst many others. To this day, the brand is run by the founding team without raising any external capital.

Combined with his personal start up experiences, Ismail began consulting other small businesses working under high pressure environments with frankly minimal to no marketing budgets. Knowing the struggles of other small business owners, he developed a social management software coupled with a monthly consulting service which allowed small businesses to manage & execute consistently with data driven recommendations starting at $300/Month. The software currently has over 2,000 active users. Since then, Ismail created Clouter, which is a talent management & influencer marketing platform that has generated an approximate three million dollars for businesses as well as over a combined 200 million impressions.

ISH & CO now runs as a twenty-four person team & turns consistent & effective media coupled with intelligent advertising into scalable long term branding. The agency is split amongst three teams to accommodate clients of all sizes from pre-revenue start-ups to Fortune 500 companies. Combining the best in class creative team with a premier execution team, ISH & CO was founded to help bridge the gap for businesses struggling to make a name {BRAND} for themselves.

Why we’re different?

Marketing frankly can often come across as a bunch of "mumbo jumbo"... Most marketing agencies will throw out a proposal, accept your money, & work in the background without you really knowing what is happening. Which is why we promise that no matter in what capacity you work with us, you will always have a personal coordinator on our team helping you along that you may contact at any time.

Patience

Although “Quality & Speed” is our motto, all great things take time. We understand if you can’t afford thousands of dollars every month, tell us your budget and we’ll create a game plan from there.

Honesty.

Running a business is hard enough. We won’t hassle you by dishing out unreasonable expectations.

 

Transparency.

Have a question for us? Ask away. Seriously ask anything.

Loyalty.

We won’t work with your rivals. Just point to the enemy.

Flexible Contracts.

Don’t like us anymore? It’s okay, cancel anytime. No hard feelings.
