Who We Are.

We are the guys who brought the GEICO Gecko to life. We are the guys who helped introduce America to the GEICO Caveman. We’ve produced over seven hundred commercials, and thousands of digital and social content pieces for brands like GEICO, Budweiser, Gatorade, Amazon, UPS, Dunkin, Exxon, Quaker, Microsoft and Samsung. Fixer is a scalable, on-demand agency-style production department servicing both agencies and brands. Our plug-and-play model means you have access to the highest quality agency-style production resources without the commitment or costs of a full-time team.  Our team of producers, business affairs, talent managers, and other high-level support staff will bring experience and solutions and dovetail seamlessly into your teams work style and flow. Award-winning producers John Noble and Brad Powell oversee every project from start to finish. Every project will have several eyes on it, just like an agency production department, but for a fraction of what a big agency would charge, and without all those extra fees.

Agency Producers

At Fixer we have some of the very best producers in the business who have worked for the most respected ad agencies in the country.  Chiat Day, The Martin Agency, Wieden Kennedy, Anomaly, BBDO, McCann Worldwide, DDB, Barton F. Graf, etc.  Our producers have trained and learned only from the best of the best.  Clients and creatives love them.  Production vendors revere and respect them.

Business Affairs

Broadcast business affairs can often be complex and full of mind-numbing details, every last one of which needs to be handled to avoid any conflicts down the road. Fixer Partners has some of the best and most experienced business affairs folks in the business. They’ve been on staff at the biggest and busiest agencies in the world and now they can work for you.

Talent Specialists & Licensing

Whether it’s union or non-union talent the contracts and negotiations need to be handled with aplomb.  Our team knows the detailed SAG guidelines like the back of their hands.  Upgrade, downgrade, outgrade, celebrity contracts, legal consultation, network clearances, acquisitions.  Led Zeppelin to Lynyrd Skynyrd to Lyle Lovett, we have the experience and the "know-how" and we know exactly who to negotiate with to avoid additional fees. It’s all about who you know.

Production Consulting

We’re rare cause we’ve actually done it. We specialize in assessing and fixing in-house production units. Workflow, staffing, recruitment, equipment, anything to make your department run smarter and more efficiently. We are the “roll-up-our-sleeves-and-get-it-done-now” consultants. We’ve designed and built production departments and in house studios for some of the best brands in the business.

During his 9 years at the Martin Agency, he helped create and produced the original Caveman and Gecko TV spots, both of which are on the advertising Walk of Fame.  His iconic work for GEICO -- the Caveman series -- became a cultural phenomenon and an ABC TV Series; is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, and has been featured in publications and award shows too numerous to mention.  

He produced over 80 spots for GEICO while at the Martin Agency, as well as campaigns for UPS, Miller Brewing Co., Hanes, WalMart and others.  He also spent two years at Hill Holliday in Boston as EP/VP overseeing production on Dunkin Donuts and John Hancock.

Over the last 12 years in NYC and beyond he has produced work for most of the top shops, including long stints at BBDO (ExxonMobil, Embassy Suites, REI), stops at Barton Graf (Bai), Wieden/Kennedy (ESPN), Anomaly (Budweiser Global World Cup), Ogilvy (AmEx, Samsung), Sid Lee (Facebook and Apple), Huge (Samsung) and JWT (Microsoft).
