DARCI Creative

We are excited to celebrate Julie's 3rd DARCI-Versary today! We asked her a couple of reflection questions: What brings you joy at work? "My biggest joys at DARCI Creative come from the moments when our team collaborates on a project or campaign that really makes a difference for our client. I am so lucky to work with a mix of insanely creative and analytical minds who all work well together." What are you looking forward to? "I'm looking forward to growing into my new position as Account Manager and continuing to improve outcomes for clients and find new ways to support my team." Thank you for all you do for our team and our clients, Julie!

Quick story: Last week one of our client contacts was traveling, and while she was out her team pulled that week's blog post and replaced it, which meant some quick shuffling on our end to support that new blog with graphics, social media posts, and optimization. Our team was able to adjust without missing a beat, giving our client peace of mind on her travels because she had a full marketing team supporting her. She sent the team this note when she returned. This is what we do for our clients. Provide peace of mind, team support, and incredible marketing services. #MarketingAgency #AgencyLife #Gratitude #DarciCreative

We are thrilled to share that Darci was invited to speak at SIMA's Snow & Ice Symposium in Pittsburgh last month as leader in the field of marketing for snow service companies! ❄️ She attended alongside our longtime client, Piscataqua Landscaping & Tree Services, who take a proactive approach to snow and ice management - and their marketing. The Snow & Ice Management Association (SIMA) is a non-profit trade association with a focus on training, events, and best practices related to snow plowing, ice management, and business management. Empowering snow & ice management for success is their mission.

We're honored to have been part of the 12th annual Veterans Count event, "Boots & Buckles!" Thank you to Raya Al-Hashmi of Raya on Assignment for photographing this special occasion on Saturday. Many people collaborate to make this a success, and 90¢ of every dollar raised goes directly to support our NH veterans, active military and their families. Our involvement with Veterans Count has spanned many years. We are proud of our work as brand architects for the primary Easterseals New Hampshire Veterans Count brand, and as producer and show runner for this Seacoast event since its inception in 2009.

Thanks to the Chamber Collaborative of Greater Portsmouth and Women's Business League for today’s CelebrateHER event, "Social Media Marketing that Resonates," hosted at VENT in Portsmouth, NH.
