About BarkleyOKRP

Founded in 1964, BarkleyOKRP is an advertising agency with offices in Kansas City, Chicago, Denver and Pittsburgh. Its work also spans Media & Performance, Strategy and Branding & Identity. Past clients include Burger King, Macy's, Frontier Airlines, Red Lobster, Jiffy Lube and Corona Premier. Its work has been recognized at B Corp Certified.

BarkleyOKRP is what independence looks like at scale: 600+ people, $1.1B in media billings, zero holding-company ownership, and a client list (Burger King, Macy's, Red Lobster) most networks would envy. The 2024 Barkley-OKRP merger fused Kansas City's brand depth with Chicago's creative swagger.

Their 'whole brand' thinking plus in-house media (MissionOne) makes them a legitimate alternative to holding companies for national accounts — with B Corp values as a differentiator.
