WE ARE A BRAND DESIGN COMPANY. - Exceptional companies have an essence that guides everything they do; a meaningful idea at the center of what makes them successful.

Our clients face real and ever-changing business challenges. We work collaboratively with them to understand the core values that define their brands, and to uncover the differentiating idea that will set them apart. We use design as a tool to capture and express that brand essence, and to engage the target audience at every touch point. Creative brand strategy requires grounded thinking, a bit of intuition and the experience to manage every detail, from conception to launch. And it all works beautifully when a company takes ownership of a big idea in the name of the brand.

INGENUITY. EXPERIENCE. AND BIG, BIG IDEAS. - With creativity. Intellect. Ingenuity. Experience. And big, big, big ideas. Maybe your company’s execution isn’t meeting your vision. Maybe you have an amazing new product that you can’t get distributors to give a %&#! about. Maybe the only thing your internal creative department and your ad agency can agree on is where to meet for the rumble. Maybe you need to shake things up in a manner that’s best measured on the Richter scale. Our ideas are fueled by uncovering game-changing truths—truths that can only be identified by working closely with the person who knows your business best: you. Some call this collaboration. We call it flint meeting steel to make sparks. Sparks that ignite the rocket fuel that is creativity. We’re not tethered to any method of execution. Sometimes branding and advertising is involved. Oftentimes it isn’t. Digital, analog, high-tech, low-tech—the best method of delivery always reveals itself in the idea. Our only concern is to bring those big ideas to life in the most dramatic and effective way possible. We partner with clients who are smart, confident and courageous. People who have a mandate to make a difference. Our clients put their careers in our hands. We reward that trust with an all-in determination and work ethic that borders on the fanatical. But most of all, we reward that trust with results.

We're here to ensure your success in the ever-changing and technically-complex world of digital marketing and, above all, to have your back! Our Four Key Promises To You 1. We Have You Covered Holistically We won't let you down when it comes to your ads and traffic (SEO+), user experience (UX), or well-converting designs and landing pages (CRO). We call the holistic intersection of all three areas DIO™️. Other agencies tend to specialize in one or two areas and let the others slide. 2. We're as Careful of Your Budget as You Are Other agencies are always looking to get you to spend money on something you may very well not need or probably shouldn’t spend money on. If something goes awry, we'll work to make it fair and right. 3. Results Over Opinions and Supporting Expertise Results matter more than our opinions, but it's our expertise that allows us to ask the right questions in the first place. The best data always wins out over opinions, even our own. We're willing to be wrong, based on the data, and share our learnings with you. 4. No Long-Term Contracts and Complete Control Other agencies tend to trap you into long-term contracts and take possession of your data and hosting access. We aim to always Do What's Right, retaining clients based on relationships and quality results – not contracts – while ensuring you have control where you want it, support where you need it, and plenty of knowledge transfer. Our Commitments 1. Diversity and Inclusion O8 is committed to giving you a diverse and inclusive environment during our partnership. We are a multicultural team that has taken the MN Tech Diversity Pledge and is a certified LGBT Business Enterprise. 2. Sustainability and The Environment O8 is committed to a low carbon footprint. By making websites lean, fast, and more efficient, we reduce environmental impact. The 2% of global carbon emissions come from the electricity used by the internet, equivalent to the entire aviation industry or the world's 6th worst polluting country. 3. Open Source Contributions As a collective, O8 makes code, financial, and volunteer-based contributions to Drupal, WordPress, and other open source communities and attends related events worldwide. The Numbers - 200+ years collective experience - 95% client retention - 11 years in business - 500+ projects delivered
