Spotlight: Our Jackson Home

Our Jackson Home Logo

This month’s customer spot light is on Our Jackson Home a project recently launched by Luke Pruett and Jim Wilhelm. Our Jackson Home is here to help tell the story of Jackson and let everyone know about the cool things happening in our city everyday. I reached out to Luke and Jim after hearing a few of their podcasts and we agreed that I could be an asset to the team. I set out to design a logo that would make this new organization look like it has been around a while but that also focused on its primary story telling medium: podcasts.

We also launched a website recently to hold all of the stories that the writers for OJH are finding. You can check it out here: www.ourjacksonhome.com You can sign up for their weekly email newsletter on the website to get all their latest stories to your inbox. They also interviewed me and my wife for a podcast, you can listen to it here: 

Customer Spotlight: Maxwell’s Bow Ties

I have been eagerly awaiting this post for over a month now. Monday the website for Maxwell’s Bow Ties went live and so now is a good time to tell you about it! When I first started my business a gentleman wearing a unique bow tie walked into the Co with the apparent mission to find me. That man was Max Garner and we started a business relationship to help bring his bow ties to market in the best way possible.

Max and I worked together to create the entire branding package: logo, packaging, and a website. It has been a joy to work with Max on all of these projects and to wear the bow ties around town (yes I have been actually wearing these and they are awesome!).

Here are the goods (and you can order them here):

I hope to see everyone wearing Maxwell’s Bow Ties this Christmas!

Customer* Spotlight: Madison Co CASA

Customer is not the right word here because all the work for I do for Madison County CASA is done pro bono. (Which I have always used but what does it really mean? I guess it doesn’t have anything to do with Sonny and Cher or that guy from U2 after all)

The mission of Madison County CASA is to advocate for safe permanent nurturing homes for a abused and neglected children by providing specially selected and trained community volunteers.

I was recently elected to the board and will be helping them by providing marketing services. So this post has two purposes: 1. To show some of my work. 2. Let you know about some upcoming events that you could attend to help CASA.

1. Eat Outback for CASA.

On November 7 you can eat lunch at the Outback in Jackson for $20. Almost half of the money from each meal ends up in CASA’s hands. That means you get an amazing lunch put on by the great manger and staff at Jackson’s Outback. By eating lunch you get to help a great cause in CASA. In every sense of the phrase this event is a WIN-WIN! Here is the link to the Facebook event.

2. Breakfast with Santa

Thanks to sponsorships from Leaders Credit Union and the Barn at Snider Farms CASA will be hosting its first ever Breakfast with Santa on December 6. For $5 come and have breakfast and take pictures with Santa. If you have children this would be a great way to avoid the creepy mall Santas and still get your children’s annual picture with Santa.

Keep an eye out for more opportunities to help CASA as they serve children who really need our help.
