LaBov & Beyond is this delicious mesh of old-fogeyness and “I swear I’m cool, I swear!”-ness.

When we last covered them, they were trying to generate creativity with a whiteboard website. This time around, they’re spreading word that LaBov & Beyond isn’t an agency at all. Latest positioning statement: “LaBov, the Un-Agency Agency.”

Wondering what LaBov & Beyond is? We’re not sure, but we bet it involves a lot of super-expressive words that don’t actually say anything. See PDF.

But hey, we’re into their earnestness. LaBov vibes like a dependable bunch, even if not flawlessly hip.
