Treeshake isn’t just another marketing agency. We create movements, build momentum, and drive transformative results.
We help our partners connect with the right people, in the right way, at the right time, to drive breakthrough results.
We’re here to turn reach into impact. Whether it’s a policy shift, packed-out event, media storm, funding round or growth in sales—we craft campaigns that move the needle.
We don’t spray and pray. We zone in on a tightly defined audience, deeply understand their needs, and build creative collateral that resonates. Then we amplify through the right platforms, partnerships, and pressure points to get results.
Our campaigns for change are focused communication sprints with clear goals and real-world outcomes.

What we believe
Movements are about people coming together around a shared vision or narrative for change.
They grow when you empower people to lead, not just to follow.
Breakthroughs happen when the right people get involved.

Why ‘Treeshake’?
Our name is inspired by Nelson Mandela’s Xhosa birth name, Rolihlahla, meaning “tree shaker.”
We exist to shake things up. Not for the sake of disruption—but for progress, justice, and meaningful change.
We work with people and projects we believe in—where strategy, story, and momentum can move the world forward.
