Matt is one of the hardest working and diligent creatives there is. He’s got the talent, the skills and the optimistic attitude to take on any of your marketing challenges.

Matt is a true pro in every sense of the word. He can handle any assignment, steps up when the pressure's on, always delivers a multitude of ideas no matter how big or small the assignment - and presents well to clients. His optimism and true team-player attitude is an asset to any project. I would recommend Matt if your looking for a creative who knows what they’re doing and enjoys doing it.

I had the pleasure of working with Matt for several years on the adidas golf business. During that time he demonstrated an ability to challenge what we did while also driving creativity for the brand and at the same time having a clear understanding of the audience and the nuances that come with it to ensure we remained relevant yet inspirational. Matt also had a huge amount of passion for his work and the success of our company and this was clearly evident in all that he did and contributed to the success of our marketing activity.

Matt is that rarest of advertising talents. A creative who can deliver the biggest and best ideas and still be sane and a pleasure to work with. I worked with Matt for three years and have known him for more and highly recommend him.

Matt Bogen never met a brief he couldn't crack.
Christian Jacobsen, Founding Partner, The Many
I had the good fortune of working with Matt at two different agencies. At both places he not only helped plus the work, but he made the culture of the agency 10 times better. A few years later we both re-surfaced at Kastner & Partners, We worked together and Matt had more of a CD role. Everyone in the agency benefitted from his concise thinking and his endless humor. Matt is a good creative and an even better man.
Jason Roberts, Associate Creative Director, 22squared
Matt is not only an extremely good writer, he knows he's good. Which, far from making him arrogant, makes him one of the most relaxed people I've ever had the pleasure to work with. Even under the most brutal of deadlines, he consistently manages to come up with ideas that are both strategically sound and creatively extraordinary. But perhaps the most compelling testimonial I can give is that I originally hired Matt for a three-week stint, and he ended up staying for 6 years.
