About Rally On Media
Rally On Media is a video production company + ad agency based in Brooklyn, NY. We've done everything from create Olympics commercials airing primetime on NBC to documentaries to social ads to startup pitch videos.
My co-founder and I were management consultants when we quit our jobs to drive a car around the world (London → Mongolia, New York → Patagonia), while filming a TV show for Lonely Planet. This is how we get into storytelling, which got us into production, which now gets us into advertising.
On the startup side, we own the niche of equity crowdfunding - i.e., online capital raising. We're pretty dang good at it. We've helped companies raise more than $200M in the last 4 years and have developed a reputation as the go-to creative agency in the world of equity crowdfunding.
Until now, our business was all video production. Now we're building out our performance team.
Thats where you come in.

🍫Bring Surprise Chocolate -
At Rally On, we’re filmmakers and client service professionals. Our job is to deliver an amazing client experience. Client means “one who is under another’s care.” Delivering that experience means communicating clearly and thoughtfully, in an organized way. It means building project plans with deadlines and hitting those deadlines. It means building great relationships, understanding our client's needs, and meeting them.
Bring surprise chocolate is also code for delight.
We want our clients to not just like working with us but absolutely freaking love it. We go above and beyond for our clients to create an unforgettable experience. We create systems that make giving surprise chocolate innate to how we operate. But what’s important to know is that surprise chocolate isn’t just about the external world, it’s about how we show up internally as well. We bring surprise chocolate to our team. We delight each other whenever we can, in ways big and small.
Sometimes surprise chocolate is an idea.
And often, it’s actual chocolate.
KEYWORDS:
Client experience, delight, service, care, intention, teamwork
🗝️Own It
At Rally On, you are trusted with autonomy by default, not the other way around. To deliver the best work possible, everyone who works at Rally On needs to feel ownership over not only their projects but the company.
On projects, whether you’re writing, directing, producing, or editing, the final product is yours.
Act like it.
Collaborate with your team members to produce the best project possible. Communicate your vision for the piece and get the other team members on board. Do things that seem out of scope if you know they’re the right thing to do. Always do the right thing.
If you don’t feel ownership over the project, step up so you do. You’re here because we believe you have that power.
At the company level, make this the place where you want to work. Improve systems that are broken, build systems where there are none. We have a saying at Rally On “fix the lightbulb” which means if something is broken, fix it, even if you weren’t the one who broke it in the first place.
KEYWORDS:
Ownership, collaboration, clarity, empowering, fix it
💡 Be Creative Within Constraints
Our budgets may not be huge, but that doesn’t mean we can’t deliver something wildly creative while still achieving our clients goals.
Some of the best creative in the world was done on a shoestring.
Always look for the creative angle, always discover ways to inject more creativity into a piece. Just because there’s a way we do things doesn’t mean it’s the way.
We’re in film because we’re creative.
But it’s not just in the film that we’re creative. We’re creative in our internal systems, in our trainings, onboardings, and events.
We are creative in how we maximize the impact of the resources we have at our disposal.
