Most B2B brands have the same problem: great strategy that never makes it to market, creatives buried in requests, and a brand that looks different every time someone touches it. I built OhSnap! to fix that. I'm Dmitry — co-founder of OhSnap! and former Global Head of Creative at HubSpot, where I scaled a 120+ person in-house agency. I've spent my career at the intersection of brand strategy, creative operations, and the systems that make both actually work at scale. I bring an engineering mindset to creative problems — which means I'm just as comfortable diagramming a Zapier workflow or an AI stack as I am reviewing a campaign brief. At OhSnap!, we build brand systems for B2B SaaS and tech companies — the strategy, the design system, and the tech stack — so your team can go to market fast without everything falling apart. Outside of client work, I share what I learn with tens of thousands of marketers every week through my newsletter The Brief Creative and my podcast What's Your Process?, where I go deep with the world's best marketers on how they actually do what they do. I'm also a Zapier Ambassador and Canva Certified Enterprise Trainer — which means I know these tools well enough to teach them, not just use them. If you're a B2B marketing leader who's tired of brand being a bottleneck, let's talk. My DMs are open.
I've used Zapier since 2016, first at HubSpot, then everywhere else I've ever set foot. Zapier allows businesses and individuals to connect all of their favorite tools without writing a line of code. It's incredibly powerful and I recommend it to literally everyone. Get a 2 week free trial here: https://try.zapier.com/thecreativebrand
As co-founder of OhSnap! I help B2B tech brands build brand systems that scale—the strategy, the design system, and the tech stack. No more figuring it out on your own, we deliver the full package. What is a brand system? A brand system is an interconnected, modular set of tools that set your brand up for scale and help you go-to-market quickly. 1. The Strategy is all about understanding and defining your Brand System. Think of it as the “why” behind your brand and the foundation for everything else. - Research - Brand Strategy - Enablement Strategy 2. The System takes the strategy and brings it to life through design. This is the “what” aka what we’re going to bring to life for you and what your customers are going to love. - Visual Identity - Design Systems - Brand Templates - Motion Design Capsules 3. The Stack brings the system to life through technology, integrations, and processes. This is the “how”. In terms of OhSnap! this is how we make sure your brand is ready for scale. - Brand Stack (think Canva, Air, Capsule, and other software that makes brand accessible) - AI + Automation - Brand Enablement + Creative Ops Future-proof your brand at https://ohsnap.agency
