“It's rare (at least, in my experience) to meet a creative who is as immensely talented as Kristy while also having such a diverse skillset. Kristy was comfortable with challenging herself and the team. And, I got to watch her grow and achieve so much outside of her comfort zone. Or at least, what I thought her comfort zone was. Kristy proved she was confident in managing and mentoring a team of talented creatives – ensuring they were challenged and growing along the way. She led her team, who successfully implemented and owned our project management solution (Yes! A creative who also loves process). She was comfortable managing up when she needed to and intensely listening when she needed to. She was comfortable launching a new brand, a new messaging framework, and a new website... several times. Kristy accepted every challenge head-on, always asked the right questions, and helped me grow at a critical time during my own career. I'm fortunate to have gotten to manage Kristy but also learn from her. Kristy's career journey will continue to accelerate, and I can't wait to see where it takes her.”

A More Intelligent Brand
Springbuk
With 124% partner growth that included some of the most respected consumer brands, it was infuriating to hear a prospect state, “It doesn’t look like you have any experience partnering with companies like us.” Hearing our own brand used against us provided the sense of urgency and inspiration we needed. Updating our website and case studies became a top priority. However, as we dug deeper, it became clear to our team that our problem wasn’t solely our website or case studies. In fact, these…
With 124% partner growth that included some of the most respected consumer brands, it was infuriating to hear a prospect state, “It doesn’t look like you have any experience partnering with companies like us.” Hearing our own brand used against us provided the sense of urgency and inspiration we needed. Updating our website and case studies became a top priority. However, as we dug deeper, it became clear to our team that our problem wasn’t solely our website or case studies. In fact, these were simply symptoms of a larger issue - we had outgrown our brand.
