YOUR CLIENTS HAVE YOU. YOUR AGENCY HAS US.
The systems, growth services, vendor network and shared development to run your agency better, grow it faster and build something worth owning. All on [HB]Box, the operating system Hollywood Branded runs on every day.
YOU'RE RUNNING AN AGENCY. NOT A SOFTWARE COMPANY.
Your CRM knows one thing and your project board knows another. Client history lives in email. Contracts get rebuilt from the last one. Good ideas disappear after the meeting, and your team spends hours keeping it all in sync.
Hiring more people isn't always the answer, and buying more software almost never is. The opportunity is getting the people, tools and knowledge you already have to work together.
ONE OPERATING SYSTEM. THE MODULES YOU NEED.
Start with one problem and add modules as you grow. Keep the tools you love, replace the ones you don't, and build what's missing without starting from scratch.
Run your agency
Operations, client records, people, finance, knowledge and AI agents, connected in one place.
Grow your agency
Prospecting, proposals, content, PR, podcast bookings, awards and AI search visibility.
Serve your clients
Client portals, campaign tools and reporting, plus optional access to Hollywood Branded's entertainment partnerships.
Build your business
Shared development, a preferred vendor network, funding and IP research, and acquisition support.
EVERYONE WHO ADDS VALUE GETS SOMETHING BACK.
[HB]Box connects agencies, brands, productions, vendors, freelancers and educators in one system. Each one brings something and gets something in return, on terms written down before the work starts.
| Who | What they bring | What they get |
|---|---|---|
| Agencies | Membership, expertise, feedback and referrals | Better operations, new capabilities, group purchasing and growth opportunities |
| Brands and productions | Projects, budgets and real-world needs | Solutions built around how they work, and access to the [HB] network |
| Vendors | Services, preferred terms and expertise | Qualified introductions and new business |
| Module sponsors and cohorts | Funding, ideas and testing for new modules | Early access, development credits and tax savings support |
| Freelancers | Skills and availability | Projects, relationships and income |
| Educators | Knowledge, training and frameworks | Audiences, licensing and paid learning |
| Hollywood Branded | Infrastructure, expertise, relationships and distribution | Recurring revenue and a stronger network |
This is what the network is designed to offer, not a guaranteed outcome for any one member. Not every deal benefits everyone equally. Every deal has clear terms and a fair exchange of value.
PICK THE DOOR THAT FITS TODAY.
Run your agency on what we built to run ours.
Use the [HB]Box modules HB already runs on, extend them with your own workflows, or build something new on the same foundation.
Keep the client. Add the capability.
Offer entertainment marketing under your own relationship. Refer, Collaborate or Lead, and earn 10%, 20% or 30% of Hollywood Branded's net fee depending on the work you take on.
Staffed to the work. Backed by the system.
Vetted specialists, fractional talent and embedded teams when you need capability without permanent headcount.
BUILD IT ONCE. LET IT PAY YOU BACK.
Most agencies pay full price to solve problems every other agency has too. On [HB]Box, a small cohort of agencies with the same problem builds the solution together, shares the cost and uses it first.
Subscribe
Run on the modules that already work, kept current as AI changes.
Join a cohort
Two to six agencies fund and beta test a module together, at a subscription level.
Sponsor a module
Take the lead on a module other agencies, brands or productions need too. You get priority on how it is built and earn credits as others use it.
Custom build
Commission your own layer, built around how your agency works. At the enterprise level, build and deliver software for your own clients.
This isn't work for hire. You keep a perpetual license to what you build with us, you can share in revenue when other agencies use it, and the platform stays with Hollywood Branded. When others opt in to a module you helped build, you earn credits toward your [HB]Box subscription, hosting and AI costs. Credits are not cash returns or equity. And when your agency is developing something for itself, our tax savings partners can help you scope savings that may bring back even more.
WE FIND THE MONEY BEFORE WE RECOMMEND ANYTHING.
Money you're spending
Overlapping software, redundant subscriptions, manual processes and vendors you could replace.
Money you're losing
Unbilled scope, missed renewals, rework and decisions that wait too long.
Money you could be making
Bigger existing accounts, stronger proposals, new service lines and partnerships.
We separate documented savings from recovered revenue and freed-up time. An hour saved isn't cash saved, and a prospect isn't revenue until you win the work. If the numbers don't work, we tell you.
BUILT INSIDE A WORKING AGENCY.
For 18 months, Hollywood Branded and our development partner Selfrun have built [HB]Box together. HB brings nearly 20 years of running an agency and knowing which problems are worth solving, and Selfrun brings the engineering. Today HB runs its pitches, tasks, client records, client portal and AI work on it every day.
Software spend cut
HB's monthly software spend, reduced by consolidating and connecting tools.
Roles moved to client work
Three roles that used to hold data and process together now serve clients.
New pipeline
From existing clients, through faster, more relevant pitches.
"After nearly 20 years running Hollywood Branded, I knew we didn't need another piece of software. We needed the software we already used to work better together.
Shap and I built [HB]Box around the challenges we were dealing with every day. Things falling through the cracks. Information living in people's heads. Too much time spent chasing updates instead of moving the business forward.
What we've built is changing how we operate. We're creating more visibility, more accountability, and a way to actually hold onto the knowledge we've spent years building.
And that's the whole point. Less time managing the business, more time growing it. Because at the end of the day, we're here to make money for our clients and ourselves."

STRAIGHT ANSWERS.
Do I have to replace HubSpot, Monday or Canva?
No. [HB]Box works alongside the tools you keep. We only recommend replacing something when the numbers say so.
Can I start with one module?
Yes. That is the point of building it in modules.
Do I need to work with Hollywood Branded on entertainment?
No. The software and the Certified Partner program are separate. Use one, the other or both.
Is everything on this page available today?
No. Some modules are in use at HB today and others are in development or planned. The full program page shows the status of each one.
Who owns my data?
Your agency's data stays yours and stays separate from every other agency. Data rights and exports are set out in your agreement.
Can my agency help decide what gets built?
Yes. Register, request a module, or join a cohort building one.
