How good could we be together? Whether you’d like to hire us, work for us or simply chat with us, we’re always ready to talk.

Alberto

When each one of us dedicates a single act to making somebody else feel better we create, in a clear moment, an outburst of positive energy. It’s as simple as that. Just talk to anyone, validate their presence and establish a dialogue. In a moment, powerful opportunities present themselves to make that other person feel better. So, go ahead talk to someone. That action in itself is incredibly empowering. Then ask yourself, how good can you be at making their world a little bit better.

Jim

Making a difference, having an impact or Doing a World of Good. The truth is that any one of us can take actions every day to make the world a better place. And we should! But the magic happens when our team partners with a client and together we Do a World of Good in a BIG WAY. For me, whether I’m helping out at my church, serving on my local non-profit board or developing the next generation of marketers, it’s all Doing a World of Good to me – and truthfully – it’s the most rewarding part of my day!

Katherine

After almost, let’s say an ample amount of years in this business, I find the most pleasure in watching the Pulsar team adapt to new challenges. I love being able to open doors for the creative and inspired ideas they bring to our clients every day. This makes the world good to me and makes me smile whenever our collective agency and client teams succeed.

Andy

I ride my bike to the office to do a world of good for the planet. I think creatively and strategically all day to do a world of good for my clients. I make time to play after work to do a world of good for my kids. And I write parenting books with my wife at night to do a world of good for families everywhere. All that may not do a world of good for the amount of sleep I usually get, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Morgan

I get my idea of doing a world of good from this thing my mom planted into my head years ago and it’s stuck with me. Our reactions are stones being thrown in a pond, which is made up of people and our environment, and we can have negative or positive ripples. We’re not always going to make positive ones but it’s important that we’re aware of how our actions impact other people. You want to be thinking about what is the effect of all these small things you’re putting into the world.

Andy C

I believe advertisers have a responsibility to do a World of Good. You can’t try to fool people. The solution to a creative problem has to be genuine and persuade from a truth. That’s why I share each day’s work with my two teen daughters – if they think I’m selling products and services in a positive way, I know I can sleep easy every night.

Peter

I’m extremely sensitive to the energy I bring to the workplace. It’s important to me that the people I work with feel safe and comfortable. I’m concerned about the overall collaborative process and the energy of the environment around me. I try to be approachable, have a sense of humor about stuff. And to never miss an opportunity to do the same things outside of work.

Alex

A world of good to me means to leave no stone unturned. To be a master of adventure. I want to see and experience everything this planet has to offer. That’s why I travel and try new things as often as possible. So I can understand new cultures, find new waves. The best way to do a world of good is to understand and appreciate that world.

Felix

Felix Limardo loves doing a world of good for Pulsar’s clients through his passion for film and video production. Whether it’s helping a longtime friend who’s husband passed away going back into the World Trade Center on 9/11 to make a film about his life or helping citizens learn how to be active participants in the policymaking process or helping Fortune 500 companies be sensitive to their diverse customers – It’s really all about focusing on one person or one passion at a time.

Cassandra

When each one of us dedicates a single act to making somebody else feel better we create, in a clear moment, an outburst of positive energy. It’s as simple as that. Just talk to anyone, validate their presence and establish a dialogue. In a moment, powerful opportunities present themselves to make that other person feel better. So, go ahead talk to someone. That action in itself is incredibly empowering. Then ask yourself, how good can you be at making their world a little bit better.

Camille

A World of Good means to me to always give the best of you. As a firm believer of “pay it forward”, a simple smile to others (even strangers) or just giving a helping hand without been asked. Whatever you put out in the Universe, you’ll get it back in a better way, even if it’s just the happiness or satisfaction of doing good to others. In my case, I want my daughter to learn that and be part of it, this is the place she’ll be in, that’s why values and being a good person is what I focus on the most, so she can keep building a true World of Good and Love!

Alicia

To me, doing a World of Good means believing people are inherently good. I never want to jump to the worst possible conclusion about one’s character. Having a predisposed opinion about someone makes you immediately think negatively of them and judge even their smallest actions. Doing a World of Good means seeing people for who they actually are with an open mind and an open heart.

Sande

Doing a world of good means doing the small things I can all add up.

Lisa

Doing a world of good means finding a personal purpose that contributes to society as a whole. For me, that’s animal-rescue work, not only because they’re some of the most vulnerable beings, but also because of what they can do for humans. They can bring therapy and rehabilitation and enrichment to our lives. But doing a world of good doesn’t have to be about finding a cause. If every person contributed just a little of their passion and talents, we could make a real difference on a local or community level.

Susan

Doing a World of Good starts with taking a step back. We all see our own “world” – but the most good can be done where they overlap and influence each other. I love looking for these overlaps and figuring out where we have commonality and opportunities to work together. Whether I was living in DC or in the Carolinas or in Greece or in Thailand – I’ve looked for places to connect and serve. Now I look for ways to show my daughters how our differences are small but important, and how we can bridge gaps in understanding. I’m grateful to be part of an agency setting out with intent to serve each day.

Nathan

Doing a world of good can be interpreted in many ways but to me it means making choices and behaviors that have the ability to contribute positively to the world around us all. Creating a collective impact that extends beyond our own individual boundaries. We can all contribute to a world of good through various impacts such as promoting justice and equality, environmental stewardship, cultivating positive relationships, spreading joy and positivity and working on our own personal growth and integrity.

Chelsea

Ultimately, doing a world of good means making a positive impact on the world and those around us through intentional actions that prioritize compassion, empathy, and the common good. It’s about recognizing our interconnectedness and taking personal responsibility for our impact on the world and everyone we share it with.

Courtney

A world of good is making a difference, no matter how small. Paying it forward, treating others with kindness, checking in on your friends and family, and doing what you can to make an impact each day leads to helping create a better world for everyone. We each have something to give to this world, why not make it a good one?

Ingrid

Doing a world of good is important because it fosters a sense of interconnectedness and shared responsibility, reminding us that our actions have a ripple effect across communities and the environment. When we prioritize the well-being of others and the planet, we contribute to creating a more equitable, sustainable, and compassionate world. By uplifting those in need, protecting natural resources, and promoting fairness, we help build stronger, more resilient societies that can thrive in the face of global challenges.

Jason

To me, doing a world of good means utilizing the tools and resources I possess to have a positive impact on those around me. It can be as small as helping someone in the grocery store get an item they can’t reach, or as big as creating an awareness campaign around destigmatizing mental illness. It’s all about doing what is in my power to make the world a better place.

John

As we charter through life, it can be extremely easy to get caught up in our own endeavors. At times, I find myself so focused on my day-to-day responsibilities I lose perspective on what is truly important. Serving others. Serving my family, friends, and community is the epitome of Doing A World of Good. My encouragement to anyone reading this is to live with the understanding that each person you meet has significant value. With that appreciation, by default, you begin to act more out of kindness, compassion, and selflessness which leads to Doing A World of Good.
