Who we are

In 1982, Gavan Howe walked into the offices of the General Manager of The Globe and Mail to pitch an idea. Within 2 weeks the idea was approved by the publisher and within 12 months, it had generated hundreds of thousands of dollars of new advertising revenue. Since then, The Globe’s Report on Business has carried Report on Technology, a section that has helped guide Canadian business through the most technologically innovative decades in history. Report on Technology was the first Canadian “broadband” print medium to recognize and create a meaningful dialogue around technological convergence, and its impact on Canada's business decision makers.

It is that kind of awareness, insight and anticipation the market has come to expect from Howe Brand Communications Inc. and our internet brand, ebranders.com. We are a full service brand communications partner, providing strategy, branding, positioning, creative development/execution, media planning and execution for traditional and new media, such as web sites specifically created for both official languages, English and French.

We combine the experience gained through hundreds of classic brand successes, with the limitless possibilities of interactive communications, to benefit our clients.

Because Howe Brand Communications thoroughly understands the strengths of traditional branding theory and practice, we also understand its weakness when translated into an electronic interactive medium. For that reason we have developed a new approach for the new environment, e-branding™.
