Damn straight.

Different for better.

These three little words are responsible for all the love we get from our brand partners. They drive our culture, our work, and the results.

In case you’re wondering, our 2nd favorite three-word expression is “My treat today”. Just thought we’d let you know.

When all you have is a hammer,

Brands come to us with business problems -not vanity briefs- which is why we’ve developed a well-rounded skillset that can provide a holistic solution, sans the choona. This allows us to develop unprecedented yet executable ideas across a range of marketing mediums.

  • Social Media Marketing
    Digital PR
    Content Development
    Web Development
    Social Stunts
    Influencer Campaigns
    + whatever adtech buzzword is in vogue these days.

  • Concept Development
    TVCs (yeap.. it’s still alive and kicking)
    Integrated Marketing Campaigns
    Hybrid Activations
    Experiential Stunts
    Key Visual Creation
    + whatever was pronounced ‘dead’ by armchair gurus.


Contrary to our name, we’re easy to reach.

…but you might have to serenade us a little over email first. Just email us at talk@ishtehari.com with a brief intro and we’ll get back to you pronto (matlab after our afternoon siesta very important creative thing meeting).

However, if you’re still living in the 80s and prefer to communicate by phone, give us a call (not sure if we’ll pick it up) or how about sending us a poop emoji over WhatsApp.

Fax, you say? Why not send it over on a dinosaur instead?

Or let us get back to you.

Below are some fields to grace your mighty keyboard. We’ll get back to you in… ASAP (Pakistani version)
