Good Stuff Partners, a purpose-driven brand and communication agency, is emphatic when it comes to its approach to business: If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything. That clear-as-day purpose, as well as the agency’s authentic belief that you’re only as good as the company you keep, is deeply rooted throughout the business. The Certified B. Corp doesn’t just talk a good game about being purposeful and helping clients make a positive difference in the world, it confidently walks the walk.

In fact, Good Stuff Partners isn’t afraid to turn away clients if their values aren’t aligned with the agency’s. They work with and promote brands they genuinely believe in and that can make life better for people, animals, and the planet. That purpose-led mindset extends to the talent they hire and grow, the quality of its work, the communities they serve, and its commitment to giving back.

In this episode of Beyond Profit, a podcast of the ANA Center for Brand Purpose, host Ken Beaulieu catches up with Adrian Power, founding partner and brand strategist at Good Stuff Partners, to discuss the unique nature of his business, the state of purpose in these changing times, how brands can stand up to scrutiny, how to build true purpose equity, and more.
