989 Creative Group Expands to Southern California with Launch of 760 Creative Group in Southern California

JUST ANNOUNCED:

Tech-forward, people-first marketing. We are now serving the Indio, Coachella Valley and Greater Los Angeles and Southern California area.

989 Creative Group is proud to announce its expansion into Southern California with the launch of 760 Creative Group, a new regional creative house serving Palm Springs, Indio, the broader Coachella Valley, and the Greater Los Angeles area - including Los Angeles, Long Beach, San Diego, Newport Beach, and beyond in Southern California.

This expansion marks a meaningful next chapter for 989 Creative Group as the agency continues to evolve its offerings at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and modern marketing technology. With deep roots in Michigan and the Midwest, 989 Creative Group is bringing its people-first, systems-driven approach to a region known for innovation, culture, and forward-thinking brands.

Why Southern California and Why Now

As marketing ecosystems grow more complex, brands need more than one-off creative deliverables. They need clarity, cohesion, and systems that scale.

Southern California, particularly the Coachella Valley and Greater Los Angeles, has become a hub for creative entrepreneurs, startups, nonprofits, hospitality brands, and mission-driven organizations navigating rapid growth and digital transformation. The launch of 760 Creative Group allows 989 Creative Group to support these organizations with localized partnership and national-level expertise, without losing the human-centered values that define the work.

By organizing its work through regional “creative houses,” 989 Creative Group maintains proximity and cultural fluency while continuing to serve clients remotely across the country.

Introducing 760 Creative Group

760 Creative Group is powered by 989 Creative Group and anchored in Southern California through a strategic partnership with Steve Soto, an executive technology leader and fractional CTO.

Steve Soto works with founders, CEOs, and boards when technology needs to scale, stabilize, and support the business—not distract from it. He has led technology across startups, growth-stage companies, and investment-backed organizations, with experience building high-performance technical teams, stabilizing fragile systems, and guiding build-versus-buy decisions.

Known for calm leadership, clear prioritization, and the ability to translate technical complexity into business-aligned action, Steve brings critical regional insight and technical depth to the 760 Creative Group partnership.

Together, 989 Creative Group and 760 Creative Group offer a collaborative, cross-functional model that blends marketing strategy, creative execution, and technology leadership—designed to help organizations grow with intention.
