About The San Francisco Egotist
The San Francisco Egotist is an anonymously-run website featuring the best creative, the best talent and the best resources in the Bay Area – with the coolest stuff from around the world sprinkled in. We’re here to foster growth in this city, both professionally and conceptually.

Manifesto
San Francisco is known the world over as one of the most creative cities on the planet – but we need to realize that there’s absolutely no guarantee that it will stay that way. As the Bay Area gets more and more expensive and creatives and artists leave for more affordable cities, keeping the level of creativity high will get tougher and tougher.

It is our belief, as creative participants in this city, that we must help perpetuate San Francisco’s creative legacy by challenging one another, by holding each other accountable for our work, and by hiring and promoting local talent. This is our attempt to foster big ideas and radical thinking on a local level. To remind us all why we love this job. And to highlight the best work and ideas in the Bay Area. This is The San Francisco Egotist, a means to an end.

A Message To Businesses
As decision makers on the client side and inside agencies, the choice to hire locally and demand good work is yours to make. By doing so, you’ll not only help elevate the city as a whole, you’ll help San Francisco continue to be a draw for new talent – continuing the cycle.

Just as we’re celebrating San Francisco’s creative community, we also want to celebrate business owners who push for great work themselves. With your help and trust, we’ll keep San Francisco a creative and cultural Mecca.

We’re all about hiring the world’s best talent. But we’re all about hiring San Francisco’s best talent first. It’s the challenge of agencies to uncover the photographers, illustrators, directors, writers, designers and visionaries in our city that will help make your work better every time they touch it.
