8 Branded Content Agencies You Should Work with in 2025

Second, proof: Whalar routinely ships multi-market campaigns with measurable impact—e.g., IKEA’s TikTok-led festival (50M reach; 41k UGC uses; 2.2M engagements), Clé de Peau’s Martha-fronted debut (78M views; +222% over beauty brand-lift norms), and Activision’s Warzone Mobile push (47.1M views; +9.5% awareness; +10.3% intent). Their sports and always-on formats (e.g., NFL’s “Creator of the Week”) and gaming builds via Umi Games (custom Fortnite worlds) widen the palette for branded content beyond standard social video.
