Storytelling and content marketing is Narratent’s signature move. This camp is about telling stories that would otherwise go untold and unheard. We named our agency by combining the words “narrative” and “content” together.
Our vision is to be the culture’s biggest and most relatable marketing agency, educate everyday people about the internet, and build an empire of companies that adds equity to society.
Building websites for small businesses is where we started. Now we’re looking for a Graphic Designer to bring their talent, expertise, and secret sauce to the agency team.
