Location, Location, Location. It’s super important in business, especially when your business is a Southern California advertising agency. To succeed, an ad agency needs a location that works for its clients. That’s why we chose Old Town Pasadena.
Nestled in the heart of the city, our prime location makes it easy for our clients in Los Angeles, San Gabriel Valley, and San Fernando Valley to find us. With easy access to public transportation and freeways, we’re always just a short drive away for all of our clients in Southern California (geographically short, we can’t promise anything about traffic). By the same token, our close proximity to LAX and Burbank airport allows us to easily connect with out-of-state clients, whether we’re meeting at their offices or ours.
But Old Town Pasadena isn’t just a convenient location for our clients, it’s also the perfect setting for an advertising agency. Known for its rich culture, history, and vibrant arts scene, Old Town Pasadena is a city that supports entrepreneurship and strives to offer a business-friendly environment.
Our agency was founded in the Inland Empire (IE), and as we grew, we moved to Old Town Pasadena to better serve our clients. While the IE will always have a special place in our hearts, we couldn’t be happier with our decision to relocate, as the proximity to the entertainment industry, entrepreneurial ecosystem, and creative scene of Pasadena has been the perfect place for our agency to continue to grow.
So far, being a Southern California ad agency has worked out great – here’s to many more productive years at this location. And, yes, these are team members of Echo-Factory waving outside the windows and standing on the first story of our neighbors.
Here’s a true story. We got in serious trouble with our landlord (who is super lovely) for climbing outside the office. While he was okay with the drone taking pictures of the office, he wasn’t so happy about the insurance risk in case we fell or damaged the restaurant below the office.
Lastly, Colorado Boulevard is positioned in front of the office, which is super fun on New Year’s Day. The non-profit Pasadena Tournament of Roses Association produces The Rose Parade, also known as the Tournament of Roses Parade. You’ve probably seen this iconic parade on your TV or maybe now on your mobile phone. On New Year’s Day, this annual parade is mainly held along Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena and goes by the office.
We host a party for our clients yearly and wave to the floral-decorated floats, marching bands worldwide, and equestrian units. If you plan to be in the Pasadena area, contact us, and we will give you a tour!
