Firewood provides marketing services by partnering closely with clients through the traditional agency model as well as an “embedded” approach, utilizing marketing experts with deep domain experience who work on-site at client offices or in close proximity. As one of the pioneers of the embedded agency model in Silicon Valley, Firewood has attracted interest from tech companies looking for speed to scale, better efficiencies, and closer communication and collaboration from their marketing and advertising partners.
Founded in 2011, Firewood has grown to employ more than 165 people working across its San Francisco home office, at offices in Sandpoint, Idaho, and Dublin, Ireland, and on-site at various client locations. The agency plans to open an office in London, England, in the next quarter to support client growth.
