We are a creative agency in Charleston.

Helping clients grow their brands through stunning design and purposeful marketing is our dream. Doing it in a coastal paradise makes every day that much brighter.

Who We Are

A Family Business

Vertical Fold was founded by a husband and wife team who have somehow discovered the perfect balance between creative excellence and everlasting love. Tom O’Malley is a digital marketing industry veteran with decades of client-facing experience in web design and branding. His partner, Susan, is an accomplished writer, strategist, educator (and dancer) with a lifelong passion for the Arts. Our two fearless leaders live happily ever after in Mount Pleasant, SC with their toddler and puppy.

What We Do

Making You Look Good

Merely executing a client’s wishes is not why we started Vertical Fold. Our vision is for a creative agency that forged relationships based on trust, collaboration, and awesome work. From branding to copywriting to web design, the process is a journey—not a commodity. Beyond the deliverable, we are personally invested in the success of these projects. When every dollar counts, you need a partner that brings an informed perspective and perfectionist mentality to even the smallest of tasks.

We tell the visual story of your company.

It’s competitive in your space. User experience and overall aesthetics can be vital factors in setting your business apart from the rest.
