What exactly is Back Pocket Co.?

Back Pocket Co. is a creative consultancy built for underdogs, self-starters, and small teams doing big things. We help bring your ideas to life—whether that’s structuring a pitch, writing a script, or untangling the mess in your notes app.

Think of us like that notebook you always keep nearby—only we write back.

What services do you offer?

Here’s a quick breakdown of what we do best:

  • Scriptwriting & Story Development
    Original content, rewrites, punch-ups, short films, or series work—we’ve got the words.

  • Brand Voice & Messaging
    From tone to taglines to “what do we even say on the homepage?”—we’ll help you say it with clarity.

  • Pitch Decks & Presentation Prep
    Whether it’s a show pitch or a client-facing deck, we help shape your vision so it sticks.

  • Creative Strategy for Small Teams
    Sometimes you just need someone to help you zoom out, clean it up, and get it moving. That’s us.

Who do you work with?

We work best with creative thinkers, small teams, and people doing a lot with a little. Whether you're building from scratch or fine-tuning what's already in motion—we’ll help you bring it to life.

Startups, filmmakers, content creators, indie businesses, nonprofits, production companies—if you care about story, we’ll probably get along.

What makes you different?

  • Story-first, always.
    We believe story isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s the thing that makes people care.

  • Real-world experience over theory.
    No fluff. No corporate jargon. Just grounded, creative solutions that actually work.

  • Creative without ego.
    We’re collaborators, not know-it-alls.

How do I book you?

Easy. Head to the Book a Consult page and fill out a quick form. From there, we’ll either schedule a free discovery call or start with a scoped-out project plan. No pressure, no weird vibes.

What do you charge?

We work on a project basis, with a few ongoing support options available.
Check out our View Full Menu page to get a feel for pricing.

(And don’t worry—we’re not out here sending you invoices with surprise zeros.)

Do you work under NDAs?

Yes. Creative work is often sensitive, especially early on. We're happy to sign an NDA before diving in, and we treat every project with confidentiality—contract or not.

I’m just getting started. Is Back Pocket Co. still a fit?

Absolutely. We’re built for people like you. We’ve helped folks go from napkin sketch to production-ready—and we love being part of the early stages when it’s all still a little scrappy.

Where are you based?

Back Pocket Co. is based in California, but we work with clients remotely across the country (and occasionally beyond). Zoom-friendly. Time-zone fluent. Always caffeinated.
