It’s one of our favorite traditions at HG to dress in costume on the last office day of Halloween week, and it’s safe to say everyone got in the spooky spirit — even our remote work friends! 👻

This year’s festivities included plenty of creative costumes, mulled w**e and a little friendly competition with the final matchup of our annual office corn hole tournament. Special shoutout to (Emo) Tim for taking home the championship.🏆

Happy Halloween from all of us at HG! 🎃

Sometimes, it's who you know. Other times, it's who knows you. Ideally, you have both.

That idea sits at the heart of the brand we created for Innovar Advisors. Built around decades of experience and trusted connections across the region, Innovar helps businesses, organizations and leaders reach the right people, resources and opportunities.

We translated that positioning into a new logo and messaging, then put the brand to work across a custom proposal package, a capabilities overview and letterhead with copywriting and design that give Innovar a clear, cohesive way to tell their story.

When Westaim, CCaventus and Ceres Life Insurance Company came together to form a new integrated insurance and asset management company, we helped give that new organization a name and an identity of its own.

We started with naming, using insights from stakeholder interviews, audience insights and the competitive landscape to explore a range of possibilities. We developed multiple naming directions and mood boards, worked closely with the team to refine them and ultimately landed on Aventus Capital.

From there, we built out the positioning, messaging, logo and visual identity, then carried the new brand into a website — including strategy, UX, copywriting, design and development — and the materials Aventus needed to introduce itself to the world.

What actually happens when you build a brand with HG?

Whether we’re creating something new or evolving a brand that’s been around for decades, we don’t start with colors, fonts or logos. We start by getting to know you.

We ask questions, talk to your people, listen to your audiences and dig into what makes your organization different and what you want to be known for.

From there, we find the idea worth building on and turn it into a brand that feels distinctly yours.

Because branding isn’t about MAKING you look different. It’s about making it easier for people to see WHAT makes you different.

Thinking about what’s possible for your brand? Let’s talk.

We’ve partnered with Everest Collegiate High School & Academy for more than a decade on a number of their marketing initiatives — and one of our favorites is their annual school year campaign concept.

Through our annual strategy workshop with the Everest team and feedback from parents about what makes the school experience special, we uncover the insights that can become something bigger for prospective families and students.

For the 2026–27 school year, that idea became Potential to Purpose: a campaign celebrating how Everest helps students discover, develop and apply their unique, individual gifts inside and outside of the classroom.

Tech Week 2026 officially kicks of today — aka, our favorite “unconference” of the year!

We first partnered with the Tech Week Grand Rapids team in 2024 to create a website that could better support the event’s rapid growth by making it easier for organizers to manage events and for thousands of attendees to explore everything happening throughout the week.

We’ve continued evolving the site together ever since. For Tech Week GR 2026, we made another round of updates focused on improving the user experience and making event applications and management work even harder behind the scenes.

We’re proud to play a part in an event that brings our community together around technology, innovation and the future. Visit techweekgr.com for events and more info!

brings the resources of a national insurance provider together with the personalized service of a local agency. Their website needed to make that difference clear.

Building on our previous brand work together, we reimagined OVD’s digital experience from the ground up — rethinking the site structure, user journey, content and design to create a more modern experience built around where the business is headed.

Take a look at the transformation. 👉

Why can two companies offer something similar, and one command a higher price?

Often, the difference is the brand.

Every interaction shapes how buyers perceive your organization, what they expect from you and ultimately, what they believe you’re worth.

Our latest blog explores how strong brands turn those perceptions into real business value and greater pricing power. Read it at the link in bio!
