What we believe

Good communication should make the complicated feel simple.

Mad Banana has never tried to fit every client or project into the same package. We listen first, figure out what matters, then bring the right combination of communications, creative thinking, and professional support to the work.

That flexibility has been part of Mad Banana since 2001. The work has changed. The places have changed. The goal has not: understand what needs to happen, find the smartest way forward and do the work well.

Capabilities

Built around the problem. Not the package.

Creative & Content

Branding, copywriting, editing, marketing communications, social media, promotions, photography, voiceover and on-camera talent.

Communications & PR

Public relations, media relations, public affairs, government and municipal communications, crisis communications, message development, press releases, executive communications and event planning.

Consulting & Training

Communications consulting, marketing strategy, reputation management, crisis planning, media training, practical AI training, presentations, public speaking and communication workshops.

Professional Support

Project coordination, vendor management, process documentation, technology support, logistics and the kinds of specialty projects that do not always fit neatly into a category.

Something unusual?

Ask us anyway.

Not every project comes with a tidy label. Some need communications. Some need creative thinking. Some need consulting, professional support, or a little bit of everything.

If you have a problem to solve, a project that needs momentum, or something that simply needs to get done, tell us about it.

We’re pretty good at figuring things out.

The story

Serious experience. A well-traveled perspective.

2001

Mad Banana has grown with its founder, its clients, and the places it has called home.

Launched in Anchorage, Alaska, the company later became part of founder Michelle Delaney’s 10-year chapter in Japan, where it added photography to its services. In Georgia, Mad Banana expanded its public relations work to include government and municipal communications, public affairs, media relations, and community engagement. Today, the company is based in St. Louis and provides public relations, communications, photography, consulting, and selected professional services.

The work has evolved over the years. The approach has not: listen carefully, think creatively, communicate clearly, and follow through.
