Blackstone Creative

Creative agency Barcelona Madrid Pretty creative has plenty of takers. We keep the kind that sells.

We're the creative division of Blackstone Marketing Services. We tie strategy, ideas and senior execution together for marketing teams that need creative wired to the business: branding, naming, packaging, integrated campaigns and audiovisual production. 30 years aiming at both.

Everyday headaches inside marketing teams

A creative agency with strategic thinking and a business mindset.

These are the eight challenges the marketing leaders who work with us raise most often. Below, how the Blackstone Creative team tackles each one, with a way of working built on strategy, senior execution and a focus on results.

Your team is buried in internal requests, with no headspace to think the big idea.

How we handle it

We slot in as a senior extension of your marketing team. We take on the tactical load and bring the strategic thinking, freeing your in-house team to spend its time on product, positioning and the business decisions that move the needle.

You ask for a campaign and get ten pretty slides and zero plan to ship it.

How we handle it

Every creative proposal comes with a detailed execution plan: phases, timelines, resources and a named lead. We always design around your real constraints —budget, calendar and in-house capacity— so the idea is workable before we ever present it.

The creative idea goes one way and the business numbers go another.

How we handle it

Every project starts by pinning down your commercial KPIs: awareness, conversion, repeat purchase, sell-in or whatever else tops the list. Our creative is built to move those numbers in measurable ways, tying every design decision back to the goals of the business.

Herding writer, designer, producer and supplier is your second job.

How we handle it

We assign one senior point of contact per project. Strategy, art direction, copywriting, audiovisual production and print coordination all run in-house from a single team. Fewer friction points, simpler coordination, faster delivery.

You launch something new and 2 weeks later the ads have vanished.

How we handle it

We build a continuity plan from the very first briefing. Every creative concept is developed with variations designed to stay alive for 6 to 12 months, so you're never running one-off bursts. That way the brand cashes in on its media spend and cements its positioning over time.

You pay for seniors and juniors do the work.

How we handle it

Our model runs on a senior team involved from start to finish. The people who pitch the idea are the same ones who build it. The structure is deliberately lean, so you get direct access to the talent you actually hired.

Every agency you try takes 3 months to get your brand.

How we handle it

We run an intensive two-week onboarding: brand audit, working sessions with your team and a deep dive into product, sector and competitors. From month one, we produce with the same command of your brand as a seasoned in-house hire.

You've got no way to measure whether the creative worked.

How we handle it

We define success metrics with you before the project kicks off. Every campaign comes with a tracking dashboard: awareness, brand lift, conversion per asset and estimated ROI. At the end, we hand over a report with actionable takeaways for the next round.

Creative services

What a senior creative agency actually covers.

Nine creative disciplines run by one team. From brand strategy to audiovisual production, we cover the full creative cycle for the marketing teams that trust us.

Brand strategy and positioning.

Branding and full visual identity.

Naming for company, product and service.

Packaging and pack design.

Art direction and integrated campaigns.

Audiovisual production and motion graphics.

Product, portrait and architecture photography.

Copywriting and brand storytelling.

Editorial design: reports, catalogues, presentations.

Ways to work together

Three ways to bring senior creative into your organisation.

We shape the format around where each brand is and what it needs. We take on one-off projects with a fixed scope, monthly-fee relationships with ongoing dedication, or work as a dedicated creative team embedded in your structure.

One-off project

A one-shot engagement with scope, deliverables, timelines and budget locked in from the start. Right for specific projects —a branding job, an integrated campaign, a packaging piece, an annual report or a rebrand— that your in-house team can't take on. Senior judgment and delivery, with no strings attached.

Monthly fee

A tailored fit. Strategy and execution on a rolling basis, at your brand's pace. A senior team that learns your business month after month and multiplies your department's output without adding headcount.

Dedicated team

An outsourced creative department through a senior squad: creative direction, design, copywriting and production. It can work remotely or on-site at your offices. All the operating power of an in-house department, at a fraction of the cost and the time it takes to build one.

Turnkey creative projects.

Our catalogue gathers the creative projects our clients ask for most. Each one is tailored to the sector, the moment and the brand's goals, with scope, timelines and budget set from day one so the whole process stays predictable and traceable.

Brand Strategy

Brand audit, positioning, archetype, tone of voice and a 12-month communication plan. A strategic document that becomes the reference frame for every creative and communication decision that follows, keeping every piece coherent and consistent.

Full Branding

A brand built from scratch: naming with legal and domain checks, a visual identity system, a complete brandbook and core applications (stationery, business cards, email signature and presentation template). A working, consistent brand from day one of business.

Full Rebranding

An audit of the current identity, an evolved visual system, an updated brand manual, a touchpoint-by-touchpoint roll-out plan and redesigned applications. Built for brands with a dated identity that need a refresh while keeping the recognition they've earned over the years.

Integrated Creative Campaign

A central creative concept, claim, digital and offline assets, an audiovisual spot, a recommended media plan and an application manual. An integrated system built to keep the message coherent across every channel and squeeze the most out of every euro spent on communication.

Packaging

Product and category briefing, three initial creative routes, final technical artwork with bleeds and dielines, a photorealistic 3D mockup, adaptation across the full range and print coordination. Packaging is a make-or-break touchpoint and demands both creative judgment and production know-how.

Audiovisual Production

End-to-end audiovisual production with our own team: corporate video, product, portrait, architecture and food photography, drone footage, motion graphics and AI-generated content. One point of contact for all your brand's audiovisual production, with consistent quality across every deliverable.

Corporate Editorial Design

Annual reports, corporate magazines, sales catalogues, executive presentations and institutional books. We work the grid, the visual hierarchy and the reading rhythm, plus photo editing and final files ready for print or interactive digital release.

Brand Relaunch

An integrated relaunch project that combines strategy, identity restyling, a sharpened value proposition, a video sales letter, responsive web design and a relaunch communication plan. Recommended for companies that need to reposition a brand or product with coherence across every touchpoint.

Start-up

Built for new companies: corporate identity, responsive site, value proposition, video sales letter, an investor one-pager and sales templates (email signature, presentation and proposal format). A professional, agile and affordable way to launch with every essential in place.

Three things you'll only find here.

01
Strategic business thinking

We run every project against your commercial KPIs: sales, positioning, repeat purchase, sell-in or whatever else matters most. Our creative is designed with a business mind and built to make a measurable dent in those numbers.

02
100% in-house across strategy, design, production and execution

Naming, branding, packaging, campaigns, audiovisual and print production. All in one senior team. One point of contact. Zero outside suppliers to chase. Your marketing wins back hours and multiplies output without adding headcount.

03
A turnkey model with AI and automation built in

We fold generative AI tools and automated processes into how we work: moodboards, mockups, voiceovers and supporting visuals. We sharpen timelines and efficiency without ever compromising creative judgment or the quality of what we deliver.

Client testimonials

What the brands we work with have to say.
