House of 8grape

At the House of 8grape, We Don’t Do Normal, basic work.

We do do exceptional, award-winning (brand, ad and design) work along with, applying, a deep understanding of human psychology (through neuroscience).

We also have measurable results (300%) of our client work and their companies to share with you to see a BEFORE and AFTER.

We help AMPLIFY your brands
through high-impact
Guerrilla & Stealth Marketing. : ))

8grape was a BRANDING | ADVERTISING | MARKETING firm which emerged during the 2020 pandemic

(yes, yes, we are SICK of saying and hearing the “P” word again too).

Of the 300 names we came up with for the new firm, “8grape” had an unusual rhythm to it and was easy to remember. So, the name was voted-in by the SI-nyc Team.

Besides, the domain GREAT.com was already taken so we couldn’t use that one. 😀

[ Only a few years later, we added the
word House due to creating a number
of new assets for the expansion of the
business. ]

See the SI-nyc.com navigation
on the homepage for these
additional ‘House’ assets.”

Anyway…
House of 8grape

It was the year of the pandemic and the initial SI-nyc team thought:


“What will happen coming out of the other side of the pandemic and protests? What is it that our fellow business owners, leaders and entrepreneurs will want or need?”

We thought to connect with networking groups who were already well into the Zoom meeting CULTURE and let their members know what could be done coming out of the other side of the shutdowns. Julien McRoberts & Lara Kisielewska spearheaded this effort and reached out to (mostly women) Network groups they had either joined, ran, or sat on their board of directors.”

Savvy Ladies , NAWBO , Covey Club , Lions Pride Leadership < Staten Island and now NJ too, to name a few.

We do, what we call, remarkable
BRANDING | ADVERTISING |
MARKETING. And by ‘Remarkable’ we
do mean amazing but at a more basic
level, we do things that people will
(hopefully) talk about to others:
Word of Mouth Advertising (WoMA).

Here is a two-sided business
card we did for Chef Mike in 2022.

We left his cards on
most of the cars in
a Staten Island
parking lot.

It’s the tits.

Just kidding ^ I always wanted to write or say that line.
It would be a great headline for a bra ad.

Here’s my (his) story 
(and I’m sticking to it). 😛
