Destination Cleveland - NBA All-Star Weekend
Our social media team was shooting around downtown Cleveland as they covered the NBA All-Star Game that took place at the end of February. They took over Destination Cleveland’s social channels, filming Instagram Stories, TikToks and other engaging content to share pointers on the best places to check out around the city and pop-ups happening just for the weekend. And let me tell you, it was a slam dunk!

Immortals
We kicked off the quarter strong with a new PR partnership with Immortals, the premier Great Lakes-based gaming and esports organization. Hitting the ground running, we worked with the Immortals team to announce their entitlement partnership with Progressive and new branding reveal. The news was met with an overwhelmingly positive response from the community, and our press release received over 30 placements from GLR media outlets; including an interview with Crain’s Cleveland and media hits in all eight states in the area. Overall, our outreach was able to achieve 344 press hits with over 560,000 impressions and 45,000 engagements.

Tendo
In search of a website that better fit their brand and the future of their business, Tendo turned to us for our expertise in web design to completely redesign the site. As a healthcare software company, Tendo was looking for a softer look that represented their vision, goals and values. They wanted to present themselves as a reputable service that is experienced and capable of handling large healthcare partners.
With the company continuously growing, we needed to support custom API integration with “Lever” to dynamically display updated job postings. We also created a deeper functionality of filtering options for their news and blog items. Overall, we were able to deliver a custom website built via WordPress and our in-house front-end development technology (FEDA: Front End Development Accelerator) that refreshed the website to visually align with the company’s direction and updated branding. Oh, and did we mention that we accomplished all of this in a turnaround time of just 2 months?

Always On
We work hard because we want to see our clients blown away by the results. Our ‘always on’ approach means that we are always ready for whatever tasks our clients throw at us next and providing them with exceptional deliverables. Seriously, we once shut down a whole street so that we could dump thousands of marbles on the road. But we couldn’t carry out any of this without our incredible t::team that goes above and beyond every day, there is nothing we can’t handle, just try us!
Q2, we are ready for ya!
