Our Unique Approach

At WORTHI, we implement an ethnographic marketing approach into everything we do. Ethnography is the study of people and cultures, and we steep ourselves in the behaviors and desires of specific communities, and create the cultural relevance between their unique needs, and a brand’s unique story, to create a lasting bond.​ Why?
