Project
WUNDER
Campaign Design
Wunder asked ABC to create an own-able moment to help them compete with Cann and win summer. We answered with Wunderland —a euphoric journey from stress to calm, built for social settings.
Project
Takeya
Campaign Design
Website Design
Takeya partnered with ABC to reset its story —from discount shelf to performance brand. We repositioned hydration as a daily ritual, not an athletic edge case, and helped Takeya grow across every channel.
Project
Slo Cal Roots / Root One
Brand Design
Website Design
Slo Cal Roots and their sister brand, Root One, needed a shared identity as authentic and magnetic as the Central Coast itself. We created a unified brand system designed to resonate with SLO locals.

What clients say
“ABC is an amazing blend of right and left brain thinkers. The brand
identity work they produced I couldn’t be more pleased with. They
knocked it out of the park! These guys get it. Extremely talented and
easy to work with. This coming from a guy who traditionally hasn’t had
much success working with agencies. If you get the chance to work
with Sam and his team, jump on it.”
- Tom Rinks, Founder Sun Bum
“Sam’s leadership experience in marketing gives him an understanding of business realities that most ad-guys don't have. His leadership experience in design and advertising gives him an expertise in creative asset development that few marketers have. His background in fashion and action sports give him instincts for creating cultural relevance that everyone wish they had. As a result, he is uniquely positioned to help brands identify and take advantage of new ways to create value in the modern marketplace.”
- Tim Washburn, Co-Founder Nomadic
“HUF is fortunate to have been able to work with ABC. They really
understand the cannabis landscape and have been extremely
valuable in helping us shape our entrance into the market.”
- Jon Brubaker, CEO HUF Worldwide
"Sam is one of the most prolific marketers in the cannabis industry, his deep understanding of consumer trends has helped clients like Canndescent and Seed & Smith become brand leaders in their respective markets"
- Rosie Mattio, Founder Mattio Communications
“Sam and his team at ABC nailed it. The rebrand best reflects who we are and where we’re going. We made a splash when we launched and have every intention of being iconic.”
