Empower Media

We are Empower® America’s largest woman-owned agency.   A true growth partner for brands, we empower our clients to Grow Fearlessly, to abandon inhibitions and reach new heights. We deliver results. And if that means finding a new way or creating a new process, we do it.  From the day we opened in 1985, Empower has challenged the advertising status quo.   Empower is led by powerhouse CEO, Ashlee Clarke. With her uncompromising drive and unparalleled vision, she sets a new standard for world-class agency work. Ashlee has the tenacity that has broken many glass ceilings, and the business experience to break new ground to help clients go where others feared to go.   Chris Clarke serves as Empower’s Executive Chairman. He is regarded as one of the most significant thought leaders in the advertising and marketing world. He is credited for revolutionizing marketing in the early ‘90s with the establishment of guerilla marketing, and innovating digital marketing in the early 2000’s. He continues to push the industry forward.   With a finger on the pulse of cultural relevance, Ashlee and Chris offer a wider view of opportunities to connect with consumers. The Clarkes are Broadway producers with a remarkable 20 Tony nominations and 5 wins. Just this year, they also co-produced The Fabulous Four, a film starring Bette Midler and Susan Sarandon.    Not only does Empower influence broader culture, our integrated team of experts in Media, Creative, Analytics, and Influencer Marketing outperforms expectations, leaving mediocrity in our dust.    Some of our extraordinary client partners include Whataburger, Tempur Sealy, Jack Link’s, Jockey International, Sprouts Farmers Market, Weber Grills, GNC, Fifth Third Bank, JUST Capital, Bank of America and Freshpet.   Empower is pure opportunity, for our clients and team members alike.    Are you ready to challenge yourself, level up and work with an unstoppable team that’s building new ways to help brands Grow Fearlessly?   Join us.
