BBR Creative

BBR Creative is a creative marketing and advertising agency in Lafayette, Louisiana, with a second office in Baton Rouge. It builds brand development and consumer marketing campaigns for B2C companies with regional audiences, covering strategy, design, email, social media and online presence.

The agency was founded on June 23, 1997 in downtown Lafayette by three graphic design students, Cathi Pavy, Cherie Hebert and Sara Ashy, with Karla Meche joining soon after to help with structure. It began as Blondes, Brunettes, Redheads with the tagline We Create Pretty Stuff, and was shortened to BBR Creative as it grew from a boutique design firm into a full marketing agency. Its approach centers on long-term partnerships with brand leaders, dedicated fixed teams and a growing preferred vendor network. New clients go through an introductory consultation, a proposed approach covering priorities, scope and investment, and then onboarding with an agency team.
