It’s a different experience at brandpartners
At the helm of BrandPartners, is the husband and wife team, Melis & Dainon Steiner. These are the faces you will see in your meetings because we believe in delivering maximum value to our clients. At BrandPartners, you are not an “account,” and we will never assign you an account manager. Instead, Melis & Dainon cultivate long-term relationships with our clients to ensure consistency of vision, strategy, quality, and expertise.
Melis & Dainon set exceedingly high standards for our company to ensure our clients can feel proud of the work we do together. They guide clients to success by leveraging their 15-year careers as business and creative executives and leaning on their graduate-level education in business, law, and politics. Most of our founders’ work is with long-term clients who see them as valuable team members, delivering fresh perspectives, thoughtful strategies, refined branding, engaging content marketing, and effective sales enablement services. Read on to see how they came to be the ultimate BrandPartners.
