Semiserious
Semiserious is funnier than you. A humor branding agency—the first of its kind—Semiserious believes that standing out isn’t a matter of taste, it’s a matter of survival. Founded by Allie LeFevere and Lyndsay Rush (informally known as the bad girls of branding), Semiserious believes that traditional marketing is dead, and invites brands of all sizes and at all stages to join them in dancing on its grave. They would never brag about their work being published in places like: Adweek, The New York Times, VICE, Vogue, Esquire, New York Mag, and GOOP, but this is a bio, so they’ll make an exception.
In addition to their client work—brands like Blue Bunny, Native, Clif Bar, Yogi Tea, Alleyoop, and The Dallas Cowboys—they run The Semiserious Podcast Network which plays host to a trio of business and comedy podcasts.
To conclude this li’l summary with a tender moment, Semiserious was formed to bring more levity, positivity, and personality to marketing...but also to the world. Awww.
