ABOUT BRANDGENIUS

Unleashing Creative Brilliance, Crafting Timeless Narratives

Welcome to BRANDGENIUS, the nexus of creativity and brand elevation. Founded by Shawn Welcome, our journey began in the creative pulse of Orlando, evolving from open mic nights to global brand impact.

Meet Shawn Welcome, the driving force behind BRANDGENIUS. In 2006, he ignited the creative spark by founding an open mic night for poetry, becoming a cultural cornerstone in Orlando, FL. After 17 years of curating a vibrant creative community of artists, he has seamlessly transitioned his passion into the world of spoken word branding and entertainment.

Shawn's Journey

Shawn Welcome's journey from a local poet experiencing homelessness to the City of Orlando’s Poet Laureate is a testament to the transformative power of words. Having shaped the creative narratives for giants like Disney, Universal Orlando Resorts, Visit Orlando, and the Orlando Magic, he now dedicates his expertise in spoken word poetry to jazz up conferences, trade shows, and marketing initiatives.

Our mission is to redefine the language of brands, infusing them with the power of creativity, authenticity, and resonance. We believe that every brand has a unique story waiting to be told, and we exist to be the storytellers, the poets, and the architects of that narrative.

Join us in shaping narratives that transcend time, where your brand becomes a symphony – a timeless masterpiece. Welcome to the soulful world of BRANDGENIUS!
