Our Story
SCOOP STRATEGIES was founded by Scott Lewis who is a journalist turned brand strategist. Scott built his career uncovering meaning in the moments that shape how people see and experience the world. The same skills that once fueled impactful reporting – rapid research, sharp insight, creative problem solving, and narrative clarity – now power strategies that help brands connect with audiences in deeper, more durable ways.
Journalism is surely an unexpected route to brand strategy, but that’s exactly what makes it a secret weapon. Both fields sharpen the same instincts: ask better questions, find the signal in the noise, and tell the kind of story that moves people.
For more than a decade, Scott has used this lens to help startups and nonprofits turn ambitious ideas into real traction. SCOOP STRATEGIES blends investigative discovery, business acumen, and human-centered design to turn insights into action plans that drive loyalty and sustainable growth.
We’re not just advisors. We’re partners in making big ideas real.
"Scott's natural keen intelligence has been honed to a razor's edge through his accomplishments and experiences as an entrepreneur and award-winning photojournalist. Scott was most impressive as a creative problem solver when things got scary."
