The firm’s entry, “Coming in Hot: Firepower with Purpose,” highlighted its growth, thought leadership, intentional culture and philanthropy during the entry timeline (October 2020-October 2021), including:

• The addition of three senior account leaders each with 10-plus years agency and/or healthcare specialty experience, a client experience operations director and digital specialists to support the agency’s growing work across digital and social media channels and platforms.
• 100 percent client retention, one-third of whom have been with the firm for three or more years.
• Opening our doors for the second summer in a row to a Social Justice Fellows program for teen girls put on by the Women of Color Collaborative in partnership with Metro Arts and the Mayor’s Opportunity Now youth job training initiative.
• Raising nearly $10,000 to bring a bike build and donation to Nashville, in partnership with national non-profit Can’d Aid, resulting in 75 bikes and helmets for the first-grade class at Fall-Hamilton Elementary School.
• Pro bono PR strategy and content for JDRF Tennessee in support of its annual Promise Gala, auction and Fund-a-Cure program.
• Our How It’s Done podcast (now in its third season) and newly minted Spark Sessions designed to scratch the curious marketer’s itch for insights on the industry’s latest trends, topics and tactics.
