Since a summer camp should be fun, its brochure should obviously look fun too. If it doesn’t, it just doesn’t work. That’s why we made sure that Wildwood, a classic Kansas City summer camp and outdoor education center, got not just a mind-blowing brochure—they got a whole booklet.
What costs less than $2 in energy a year and lasts 30,000 hours? An LED light bulb. It’s the most energy-efficient kind of light bulb you can get, which is why, when LED2 Lighting approached us for packaging design, we knew the box their bulbs came in needed a sustainable look and feel to match.
As more banks make their offerings more digital, it’s not always a given that their customers will make the switch, too. While new digital options like mobile apps, web chat, and online banking can largely make customers’ banking more convenient, old habits of driving to a branch or calling customer service die hard.
West Virginia’s Sugar Grove naval base was closing, and the state had two major options of what to turn the land into next—another state prison or a career college for youth who age out of foster care. KVC Health Systems approached us to help them quickly rally support and fight for the latter.
We recently had the pleasure of planning and implementing a whole year’s worth of marketing for Stuppy Greenhouse, a Kansas City-based greenhouse and aquaponics system designer and manufacturer who develops solutions for commercial growers and educators across the country.
Customer turnover is a real worry in the banking world, and, after 90 days, it’s common for many customers to just leave. We didn’t want Academy Bank’s customers to do that, so we thought up some ways to improve their experience and help them get more out of banking. Our first idea was to give out free money, but evidently that wasn’t in budget, so plan B it was.
A few years back, we helped non-profit KVC Health Systems completely overhaul their branding and websites, an effort which involved a lot of asset creation up front for a vast range of collateral across their different organizations. That same year and every year since they have come to us for help with designing their annual report.
Everyone in Kansas City knows Christopher Elbow’s Chocolates as the créme de le créme of confections, but the brand wanted to improve traffic to their site through search, so they approached us to see what kind of solutions we could whip up.
Armed Forces Bank is a full-service bank that serves military members across the world, the majority of which are new recruits who never walk into a branch and have little experience with handling finances. This and the fact they are gone for 8 to 12 weeks for basic training makes onboarding these customers especially tricky, which is why Armed Forces Bank approached us to help develop an onboarding and financial literacy campaign to turn these recruits into lasting customers who can start their financial lives on the right foot.
We’ve been hard at work, but how are you supposed to know that if we don’t tell you? There are a couple of projects—funny ones—we’ve been meaning to tell you about for a while now. Today feels like the right day.
