Why Cachalot?
Most video teams haven’t built an audience. Most consultants haven’t delivered content at scale. We’ve done both.
Cachalot is led by Phil Gow—creator of First Phil Whisky (58k+ on YouTube, 10M+ views) and a senior editor with 15+ years inside top-tier agencies and campaigns.
We’ve built brands from scratch. We’ve worked with teams spending millions. And we know how to turn expertise into content that connects.
