Creative Services

Creative services are a subsector of the creative industries, a part of the economy that creates wealth by offering creativity for hire to other businesses. Creative Services also means a department within a company that does creative work such as writing, designing, and production. It is often a sub-department of the Marketing organization. Examples include:

  • Design and production agencies
    • Studios
    • Ideation consultancies
    • Software development firms
    • Temp agency
  • Marketing firms
    • Public relations agencies
    • Advertising agencies
    • Promotional agencies
    • Branding agencies
  • Entertainment Industries
    • Talent agency
    • Guilds

Like lawyers and accountants in the professional services sector, creative services firms sell a specialised technical service to satisfy the needs of companies that do not have this expertise themselves.

Famous quotes containing the words creative and/or services:

    Women’s art, though created in solitude, wells up out of community. There is, clearly, both enormous hunger for the work thus being diffused, and an explosion of creative energy, bursting through the coercive choicelessness of the system on whose boundaries we are working.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    O, the difference of man and man!
    To thee a woman’s services are due.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
