Regenerative Branding
We help earth-restoring companies win in the mass market.
Bivalve’s Four Principles of Regenerative Branding
Accessible, not exclusive
We don’t perpetuate the “green tax” trap that frames earth-positive choices as luxury goods.
More good, not less bad
People are motivated more by what they’re choosing than what they’re avoiding.
Desire, not piety
Regenerative products must be as lust-worthy as any other product that responds to consumer wants and needs.
Meaning, not movements
Slacktivism causes come and go, so your brand needs to be more than a one-day trending hashtag.
There is a wave of regenerative industry building. Companies that are innovating ways to have a net positive impact on the earth. These companies have the power to change the course of human history.
But in order for this regenerative wave to transform our world, these companies need to learn how to connect with everyday people.
Bivalve is a branding and communication firm built to help the regenerative industry win in the mass market.
We distill crucial lessons from the successes and failures of sustainability marketing and pair these with decades of best practices working with the world’s biggest and best brands.
