The only way to celebrate 25 years of changing (and raising) the game is to go BIG. And go big we did!

We marked the milestone with a full day of fun-packed activities:
👟 New kicks for everyone from the @ Gazelle Sports Mobile Fit Experience 
🏈 Fantasy Football draft
🥔 Chip tasting and tier ranking
🚌 Ride to the Whitecaps game in style — on a party bus, of course
⚾ Enjoy a classic night at the ballpark with burgers, hot dogs and beers

The work may have changed a lot since 2001, but having fun together sure hasn’t. 🥰

Cheers to 25 years and many, many more to come, HG!

Grand Haven-based EZ Beach Steps came to us ready for a brand that could grow alongside their business as they expanded from the Midwest to markets across the country.

We developed a new brand identity and positioning that feels distinctly at home on the water while giving EZ Beach Steps a stronger foundation for the brand to evolve.

Would you buy from your own website?

It's a simple question, but one that reveals far more than site traffic, search rankings or conversion rates ever could.

As buyers increasingly use AI to research and compare organizations before ever reaching a website, clarity has become one of your biggest competitive advantages.

Our latest blog explores how to evaluate your website through a buyer's perspective, plus three questions every organization should be asking.

A purpose statement has the power to align people, shape decisions and transform the way an organization shows up in the world — but only when it's brought to life.

As part of our ongoing partnership with Amerisure Insurance, the team at Brandworks Detroit, powered by Highland Group, worked alongside their team to uncover and articulate a brand purpose statement rooted in the organization's signature culture and where they're heading in the future.

Through stakeholder interviews, employee focus groups, competitive analysis, market research and collaborative working sessions, we distilled those insights into a purpose statement that authentically reflects who Amerisure is and the impact they strive to make: Meeting the Moments With People Who Demand the Best.

From there, we transformed that strategy into an experience. After exploring multiple creative directions, we brought the final vision to life through a 60-second video and dedicated landing page designed to help employees, agency partners and customers connect with the purpose on a more tangible level.

It's a project we're beyond proud to have been part of, and another powerful example of what can happen when strategy and storytelling work together. We're grateful to the Amerisure team for trusting us with such meaningful work!

It's safe to say designing race car merch wasn't on our bingo card this year, but we're certainly glad it landed on our project roster. 😎 🏁

To support new partnership with a driver at Kalamazoo Speedway, we created a line of merch for the Pro team, including a t-shirt and baseball cap. Keep an eye out for it on the racetrack and be sure to cheer on driver , Car 27 this season!

If a prospect landed on your website today, could they quickly explain what makes your organization different? 💭

If people can’t figure that out quickly (like, in less than 1 second quickly), they usually keep scrolling.

The organizations that grow most efficiently aren't always the ones doing the most marketing. Often, they're the ones communicating their value most clearly.

In our latest article, we explore why brand clarity may be one of the most overlooked drivers of growth. Check it out at the 🔗 in bio.
