We produce strategic thinking, powerful storytelling, and award-winning content to build brands around the world.
Our Name
Chimera: According to Greek mythology, a chimera is a creature with a lion’s head, the body of a goat, and the tail of a snake. Over time, the word came to mean anything mythical, unbelievable, or outrageously creative.
Creative: the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality
Works: the entire compilation of an artist’s or writer’s achievements; all of the extra things that may be offered.
Chimera is pronounced:
Ki - as in “kite”
mare - as in the horse
uh - as in “uh, yeah!”
As it relates to our work, Brand Strategy is represented by the lion’s head (the brains), Brand Design by the body of the goat (the foundation), and Brand Activation by the tail of the snake (the constant motion).
Our Thinking
Why We Exist
Everyone needs help and guidance sometimes to achieve their goals. That typically comes with change, a lot of change, and change can be difficult and deeply personal.
It requires a relationship built on trust and open communication; a partnership.
As a single company we do it all, in-house, as a single team. We get to know you, your people, and your business. We care about you and your success.
Our Vision
For all businesses to understand the key to growth and success is the right branding. First. Foremost. Always.
Our Mission
To provide businesses with all the marketing services necessary to build a compelling brand and achieve their desired outcomes.
1. Your Brand Is the Whole Damn Story
It’s not your logo. It’s not your font. It’s not your color scheme. It’s the entire story you’re telling the world—whether you mean to or not. We help businesses own that story with intention, not accident. Whether you’re launching, scaling, or rebuilding from scratch, your brand needs to say who you are, what you do, and why anyone should give a damn.
2. Consistency + Constancy = Credibility
People don’t trust messy. If your brand is sending mixed signals, you’re just confusing customers—and confused people don’t buy. We make sure your brand shows up the same way across every channel, every time. Why? Because consistency and constancy build trust, and trust builds empires.
3. No Brand, No Marketing. Period.
Here’s the part most people miss: your brand drives all your marketing. Not the other way around. You can’t slap together a few ads and hope they work if your brand has no backbone. We craft brands that do the heavy lifting—grabbing attention, sparking emotion, and making you unforgettable. That’s how you stand out. That’s how you grow.
At the end of the day, your brand isn’t a piece of the puzzle—it is the puzzle.
And Chimera? They’re the ones who know how to put it together so it actually works.
Team Effort
“It is not about Marketing.. it is all about Brand. How you define what you offer and how you help your customers feel what they desire.”
