  • (Most of) the world is our oyster. 

    We’ll only work with you on projects that we know we can do well. While our deliverables are wide-ranging, we’ll always be honest if your goals are better served elsewhere.

    Research and strategy are key elements of our work, but we’re not a performance marketing agency, so we don’t take on projects in which metrics are the final deliverable (like SEO and PPC). Instead, we’ll build the kind of conceptual and aesthetic foundation that allows future campaigns to succeed.

  • Traditional consultants run the numbers: streamlining ops, tuning financial models, etc. Creative consultants have the same respect for the bottom line, but use different methods to help you reach your business goals. We shape narrative and emotion guided by empathetic, design-led problem solving. We treat aesthetics and storytelling as powerful tools rather than frivolities.

About Our Founder

Like all proper New Yorkers, Claire is fed equally by the chaos of the city and a good slice of pizza.

Her career in fashion began with relaunching Jeremy Scott’s eponymous label in 2015, later expanding to represent four additional global brands at offices in Paris, Milan, and New York. She spent many years in the European luxury sector before moving to branding and event planning, most notably hosting large-scale experiential resort conferences for executive leaders around the US. She also spent several years consulting for the c-suite at an agency specializing in leadership efficacy.

Claire has a degree in Fashion Design and Textiles Arts with additional studies in art history, studio art, and merchandising. The expertise at Claire Eckström Consulting comes from the intersection of this unique combination of formal arts education and professional experiences.
