Not an Agency A Growth Partner

We work with founders and leadership teams to unlock retention, increase LTV, and build systems that scale.

Boost Your Brand with Black Raven Creative

Black Raven Creative is a growth and lifecycle marketing partner for ambitious consumer brands ready to scale. We work directly with founders and leadership teams to unlock hidden potential, increase retention, and drive profitable growth.

We’re not a volume-driven agency. We’re operators, strategists, and builders who’ve been in the founder’s seat - and know what it takes to scale from scrappy startup to acquisition-ready success.

Our approach blends:

Lifecycle Mastery – email, SMS, and CRM automation designed to maximize customer lifetime value.
Performance Marketing – data-backed acquisition strategies across Meta, Google, and beyond, aligned with profitability.
Systems Thinking – connecting platforms, creative, and data into a unified growth engine.
Founder-Level Insight – grounded in decades of experience building, scaling, and exiting brands.

Led by Joshua Smith
Joshua is a founder, operator, and strategist with over 20 years of experience in eCommerce and performance marketing. Across six companies (four successful exits), he’s generated over $487M in lifetime retail sales, including:

GeekBox – a subscription brand with 37,000+ active members.
MySupplementStore and NRGX Labs - high-growth nutraceutical companies.
A plastics manufacturing venture acquired by the University of California system.

Joshua has been recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the Top 30 CEOs Under 30, and his companies have ranked among the Fastest Growing Retail Brands in America. He’s scaled lifecycle programs to over 10 million email subscribers and north of 900K SMS contacts, and continues to serve as an eCommerce mentor at Missouri State University.

Our Core Principles

We don’t outsource execution - everything stays in-house.
We believe clarity beats complexity.
We deliver the most impact when engaged early or when a key growth lever needs to be pulled.
We work best with founders and leaders who are building something meaningful.

If you want more than an agency - if you want a strategic growth partner who has scaled brands from zero to hundreds of millions - Black Raven Creative brings that perspective to every engagement.
