- We value our clients and our clients value us. To us, our clients are the best in the business. But to our clients, we are the best in the business. We often get comments like “this is the best ___ project that we’ve ever done!” Our clients respect us, not just because of the quality of our work, but because of our professionalism, timeliness and hell, we’re a likeable bunch.
- We value our team. We meet together over video every Friday and on the first Friday of every month, we meet in the office to connect as a team. On those days, we spend time doing some kind of team building (usually grabbing a drink and catching up at Natural State).
- We value work flexibility. While the 20 days of PTO are true “turn off your phone,” PTO, we also support a flexible work schedule, whether that means taking part of the day to take care of personal errands, or working from the road. Our team often travels internationally but are never late or unfocused when joining phone calls. That’s why this system works.

All the top brands come to our conference (Patagonia, The North Face, Osprey, KEEN, Costa, Hydro Flask, etc.). All our clients get a free ticket to the conference as a thank you. This is a great way of building rapport with clients while showing our gratitude.
- Most of the work we get is through referrals and word of mouth. That may change soon as we will start outbound prospecting to grow the agency.
