ABOUT SUPERNAUT
Supernaut is creative collective led by a core crew of skilled freelance creators who assemble customized teams for your creative endeavors.
We are…
-
We operate uniquely, distinct from traditional agencies. For example, we don't have any full-time employees, not even our creative founders. Instead, we boast a network of highly skilled freelancers and creatives, handpicked for specific projects and clients. This approach serves three vital purposes:
Firstly, it gives us creative freedom. We understand that the 9-5 structure doesn't align with every creator's process, so we provide the flexibility to create at any time of day, in any place, and in any way that inspires us.
Secondly, our model focuses on efficiency with minimal overhead costs, ensuring that 100% of our contractor’s fees go directly to them. By cutting unnecessary expenses, we’re able provide our clients with competitive pricing, positively impacting their ROI.
Lastly, assembling diverse teams tailored specifically for each project ensures our work remains SuperFresh. When clients approach us, we assemble the ideal team, spreading opportunities throughout our creative community.
It's worth mentioning that we are not anti-agency (can we cancel this word?); in fact, our certified Supernauts may collaborate with other agencies or even work at agencies alongside us, fostering a diverse and inclusive environment.
-
Our vision is to establish ourselves as a vibrant and diverse epicenter, where talented individuals come together to converge, collaborate, and unleash their fullest potential.
-
We champion a distinctive model we call "C2C™" or “Creative-to-Client”. We consider our clients as partners, prioritizing direct communication between our creative talent and the clients themselves. This approach enhances the flow of ideas, builds mutual trust within those relationships, and elevates the quality of creative output.
We firmly believe that as creators, our purpose extends beyond merely offering services; we aim to forge new ideas and lasting partnerships. Our commitment to C2C sets the stage for a collaborative environment where we serve one another, fostering mutual growth and success.
-

At the heart of our mission lies the empowerment of creative professionals, fostering both their potential and mental well-being within a culture of diversity and inclusiveness. We are dedicated to dismantling the barriers of toxic competition and egotism, encouraging an environment of open exchange where new ideas and techniques are freely shared, while forging bonds of friendship and collaboration along the way.

This provides a streamlined system for managing creative’s 1099s, payments to creatives, and contractor agreements.

This efficient system not only saves time and money but also ensures a seamless experience for both clients and creatives, enhancing collaboration and driving better creative outcomes.
We help to remove barriers to entry for individuals pursuing the freelance lifestyle. To this end, we are continuously exploring avenues to provide access to essential benefits such as healthcare, company perks, collaborative workshops, and various valuable resources.
