Client Work

Stories we've helped tell.

Every engagement is different. Every brand has its own truth to uncover. Here's a look at the kinds of transformations we help make possible.

01
Brand Story IntensiveProfessional Services

The challenge

A regional accounting firm with 30 years of history couldn't articulate what made them different from the national players moving into their market. Their messaging was generic, their team told different stories to different audiences, and new business conversations stalled.

Our approach

We ran a Brand Story Intensive — interviewing partners, staff, and long-term clients. What emerged was a story about deep community roots and a philosophy of treating clients like neighbors, not numbers. We built a messaging platform around that truth.

The outcome

Within six months of rolling out the new messaging, the firm reported stronger new business conversations, a more cohesive team narrative, and a clearer sense of how to position against larger competitors.

02
Messaging ArchitectureHealthcare

The challenge

A healthcare technology company was preparing for a Series B raise and needed to communicate their value proposition clearly to investors, clinical partners, and patients — three very different audiences with very different needs.

Our approach

We developed a Messaging Architecture that started with a unified core story, then built audience-specific message maps for each stakeholder group. We also prepared executive talking points and a Q&A framework for investor conversations.

The outcome

The leadership team entered their raise with confidence and consistency. Investor meetings were described as 'the clearest we've ever been.' The company closed their round.

03
Communications StrategyNonprofit

The challenge

A regional nonprofit had grown rapidly through program expansion but their communications hadn't kept pace. Donors, volunteers, and community partners all had different understandings of what the organization stood for.

Our approach

We conducted a full communications audit and stakeholder listening sessions, then built an integrated communications strategy with a 24-month editorial framework and channel plan aligned to their fundraising calendar.

The outcome

The organization launched their annual campaign with a unified story for the first time. Donor retention improved and the team reported feeling 'finally on the same page' about how to talk about their work.
