  • Sonder & Tell + Jigsaw create Comfort Zones the book
    Sonder & Tell + Jigsaw create Comfort Zones the bookThe iconic fashion brand Jigsaw is in the business of selling clothes, not books. But we believed that an essay anthology could appeal to the Jigsaw customer’s wider cultural interests, align the brand with their target audience and raise money for a relevant cause. We worked closely with their marketing team and EIC Ana Santi along with design studio Duzi to create Comfort Zones the book, a collection of essays, letters and stories by 28 influential women writers. We challenged writers to go o

    Brand DirectorSonder & Tell
    London, United KingdomFull Time
    At Sonder & Tell we combine smart strategy with innovative storytelling to create communications that cut through the noise. We will work alongside you to create a unique personality for your brand and a way of expressing your story which resonates with your target audience. Are you approachable? Or somewhat exclusive? Do you crack jokes? What gets you angry? Then it’s about drawing out an organic narrative to be communicated across all touchpoints – from website copy and product descriptions to cross-platform campaigns. Newsflash: you might not even need a blog. Content is not about ticking boxes, but about telling meaningful stories where it counts. When it’s right we can turn brands into publishers, calling on the support from our community of creators and expert writers to produce good stories that spark good conversation.
