Co-founders Delainie and Marissa started Backtalk to be better neighbors. We wanted to build a creative studio that supports communities, businesses, and the work that connects them. We help small businesses grow with services and education they can access and scale. We help larger companies show up in community with purpose, through collaborations that strengthen both the brand and the neighborhood. And we’ve built a studio that values creativity, balance, and joy just as much as strategy — because great work only happens when people love doing it.
