Resonate and Engage Marketing

What Resonate and Engage Marketing does

Resonate and Engage Marketing Inc. is a Philippine-headquartered creative agency and integrated marketing intelligence firm founded in 2017 and based in Mandaluyong (Ortigas Center, Metro Manila). It serves mid-market and enterprise clients across retail, real estate, education, hospitality, and FMCG, delivering three interconnected service lines: Marketing Services (SEO, email marketing, social media, e-commerce marketing, and hospitality sales and marketing), Creative Studio (branding, content creation, photo and video production, UI/UX, website development, and large-format/experiential design), and Tech Solutions (mobile and web app development, solutions architecture, embedded systems, and AR/VR). The firm's differentiator is an agency-wide AI-First Policy that overlays human strategic direction with AI-powered tooling across content generation, predictive SEO, generative creative, and AR/computer-vision experiences.

The business operates on a B2B professional services model with sales-led direct engagement via website contact form and email, delivering work as project-based or retainer engagements. Notable enterprise clients include Nestlé Philippines (employee development video series), Ortigas Land (luxury residential campaigns and AVP production), University of Asia and the Pacific (digital campus redesign), and Karat World (multi-year relationship spanning the first Virtual Jewelry Try-On in the Philippines, anniversary campaigns, and literacy initiatives). The founder, Francinne San Juan, is an ex-hotelier who has also incubated Turista.ph, a social travel app sub-brand, positioning the firm beyond pure agency services into direct product development.

The firm describes itself as an integrated intelligence company, with Resonate Intelligence as a sub-brand for its AI-powered brand intelligence positioning. It claims no external institutional investors, parent company, or VC backing and operates as a privately held independent entity. Geographic scope is described as Southeast Asia, though only one Philippine office is documented and no cross-border client wins are confirmed.
