I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Agencies get almost as excited about their work as parents with a brand new baby! And like any good parent, we like to brag a little about our creations, so here’s a page for the brag book.

The WestmorelandFlint team is proud to be helping the Duluth Children’s Museum ignite support for its capital campaign to relocate and expand. The fifth-oldest children’s museum in the nation, it has been offering unique play and learning experiences for children and families for over 80 years. Many of us at WestmorelandFlint have either “grown up” in the museum or are now bringing our children to “spark their imaginations.”

Our work with the museum began with a communications strategy for the museum’s capital campaign that is now being implemented in numerous ways, including a case statement, kick-off event plans and invitations, a progress display, business cards, and there’s more to come!

Our goal was to create communication materials that would convey the museum’s commitment to children, families, learning and the environment. Working alongside the Duluth Children’s Museum staff, board and capital campaign committee, we created the campaign theme “Be the Spark.” The colors, photos and graphic elements of these pieces convey play, learning and fun. The business cards even have an actual spinning pinwheel, representing the museum’s logo.

Take a look at the pieces we created for the museum and let us know what you think. We hope they will inspire you to be the spark and light the way for children for generations to come.

                                             

Alerus Financial has a bunch of great tools that help you better manage your funds wherever you are. The theme is “Take Control,” and this commercial recently hit the airwaves. Check it out.

During the fall, Bison football is the hottest ticket in town. Saturdays are full of excitement and anticipation. The Fargodome overflows with cheering fans while everyday life stops for a little while. Staying home to catch up on laundry, or mowing the lawn, could be the biggest mistake of the week.

The successful Will You Be There? campaign took a fresh approach for 2009. The visuals build tension slowly, before unleashing the explosive Bison footage that fans love. It doesn’t just ask the question, “Will You Be There?” It tells fans that you’d better be there.

The billboard had people talking around town, on the radio and online.
