What does it mean, this ‘creative sage’? It’s the brand archetype of marketing strategy consultant, Simone Loxton–and this is why.
I remember the moment it clicked: the day I realised how branding and identity make everything easier. Strategy started to make sense. Goals had real meaning – and leaning into brand archetypes was just one piece of that puzzle.
What is a Creative Sage, Anyway?
There are 12 brand archetypes. A few years ago, I took one of those online tests to find out what I am. While I always had an inkling towards these, the test confirmed: the Creator – the dreamer, the maker, the original thinker – and the Sage – the seeker of truth, insight, and wisdom.
Combine them (as any brand can do), and you get someone — me — who not only asks why and how, but knows how to build something beautiful from the answers.
I call myself a Creative Sage because I bring the best of both: insightful strategy and creative execution. I’m not here to come up with the biggest and best idea; I’m here to craft campaigns that hold strategic meaning, rooted in data and shaped by the story. I’ve spent the last 10+ years helping brands do exactly that.
All Archetypes Welcome
I respect agencies and consultants who work with brands that reflect their own archetype. It’s a shared connection that keeps like with like, and I get that. But my role sits a step earlier in the process. I do the research to define the brand and uncover its archetype, then build campaign strategies around it.
My job is to help you find your unique brand voice and align your marketing to it.
Whether your business is about innovation, safety, freedom, or belonging, knowing your archetype gives your brand a human heartbeat. It gives you direction. It helps you connect with the people who matter most.
Why It Works
Brand archetypes are more than theory, they’re a framework that help you with:
Think of an archetype as the lead protagonist; their character traits form a shorthand for you to appropriately communicate your mission, values, and personality. A jester entertains, while a magician innovates.
