About Raindrop

Raindrop is an independent creative and performance advertising agency based in San Diego, California. Founded in 2009, it combines brand development, commercial production and performance marketing for consumer businesses and challenger brands. Its work spans brand identity, television advertising, digital campaigns, social content and e-commerce experiences.

The agency develops brand strategies, names, visual identity systems, packaging and guidelines alongside the campaigns that bring them to market. Its video capabilities cover concept development, scriptwriting, directing, filming, editing, visual effects and motion design. Photography includes lifestyle, styled product and e-commerce imagery, supporting both campaign launches and ongoing content needs.

Creative connected to distribution

Raindrop produces advertising for television, connected TV, YouTube, Meta and TikTok, including Super Bowl commercials and longer narrative campaigns. Humor and storytelling feature prominently in its direct-to-consumer work, where brand messaging is developed alongside creative testing, paid media execution and analytics. Organic social services extend to community management, content creation and creator partnerships.

Its digital work includes custom Shopify and WordPress websites, interface and user experience design, conversion optimization and web application development. These capabilities allow the agency to work across a customer's journey, from an initial advertisement to the online shopping experience.

Campaign experience

Raindrop's portfolio includes anchor video campaigns for Dr. Squatch and its Super Bowl LV commercial in 2021, Native Deodorant's “The Scentaur,” and brand identity and launch work for Spruce. Other projects include Insulet's Omnipod 5 “Diabetes Simplified” campaign and FERMÀT's “Money Printer” brand campaign.

Beyond consumer products, the agency has developed brand and campaign work for cultural organizations and restaurant businesses, including San Diego Symphony and Luna Grill. Its broader market experience encompasses personal care, wellness, food and beverage, retail, technology and nonprofit organizations.
