A Line from Greenline

As the beautiful weather of spring 2024 arrives, it’s clear that the secret to a flourishing brand isn't just in planting seeds; it’s in nurturing your very own buzzing garden of conversations. Don’t just take our word for it; 9 out of 10 social media green thumbs agree: a thriving online community is like a sun-soaked garden party where everyone wants an invite. The headcount isn’t the priority, it’s about naturally infusing every interaction with love.

We take pride in being active in the Central MN communities where we live, work, and spend our free time. Both Emily and I volunteer with various organizations, sit on local boards and committees, and attend events that support the people, businesses, and initiatives that are meaningful to us. Kayla Keenan from INDY reached out after a friend recommended her to us, and we’re thrilled to partner with The INDY Foundation as a client.

Every marketer dreams of basking in the limelight, but the struggle to boost exposure extends beyond content marketing - it's a Public Relations (PR) challenge. Almost every marketer has struggled with finding ways to enhance visibility. Overcoming this hurdle requires a strategic approach; this is where the digital PR power trio comes into play: influencers, press, and relationships. By leveraging the collective strength of these elements, marketers can creatively address exposure challenges and make a lasting impact.

Mastering video marketing on a budget is one of the smartest things you can do as an up-and-coming marketer. You may have heard content is king, but video stands out as real royalty. In 2023, online video accounted for 82.5% of all web traffic. Video is capable of capturing attention and driving engagement like no other. While you might associate great video campaigns with million-dollar budgets, that’s not always the case. The reality is that a compelling video marketing strategy is within reach, regardless of where your budgets are at. Integrating video into your strategic plan without breaking the bank is all about being savvy with your resources.

The process of brainstorming, when done right, is a goldmine filled with creative gems. Purposeful and fresh approaches to your audiences’ problems unearth groundbreaking ideas. Brainstorming isn’t just about meeting in conference rooms or jumping on a Zoom call, waiting for that lightbulb moment to appear - there’s a whole lot more to it if done well…

Collaboration is one of our values, and having a seat at the table with other businesses is something we consider a privilege; but we want our clients to know, trust, and value us, too. Those are the strongest client partnerships, and we’re so fortunate to have found that in many of our client partners, Bernick’s included.
