Our story
It all began in a converted cowshed in 2000. Why are we called 1000heads? It’s a tale involving fountains, convention centres, and misheard phone conversations (ask us about it sometime), but it also represents community, conversation, and sharing, which are at the heart of everything we do.
Since those early days, we’ve continued to grow, and while we don’t quite have 1000 heads of our own (yet) we’ve got 180 of the most talented people working out of eleven global offices—none of them cowsheds.

Word of Mouth
1000heads helped us in some fundamental ways during lockdown. They helped us pivot on our social content and in fact we significantly increased our engagement during the lockdown and tapped into strategies that have continued to drive engagement post lockdown and beyond.

1000heads has proven itself to be instrumental for the launch of Gordon’s’ global social vision and strategy. The agency’s social first approach helped us uncover powerful insights which resonated strongly with consumers across all of our market stages. This thinking shaped our strategy and facilitated the creation of engaging content which has since then fostered the incredible growth that Gordon’s has been experiencing globally.

For a company like Salomon, lockdown was our worst nightmare. We had to delete our social plan and start from scratch. At this point of the crisis, our relationship with 1000heads was invaluable. We quickly created a new content plan and adapted our tone of voice to the reality of our community. 1000heads never let us down.
