The last 8.5 years at D5 and Song were invaluable. From Super Bowl to experiential, creative to measurement and media planning, I learned so much from all the amazing humans that have made D5/Song a powerhouse. UFA is an end-to-end creative marketing firm focused on helping growth stage brands graduate from niche to mass market competitor. Many companies at this stage are rapidly expanding through new product and service offerings or expanded distribution channels or geographic footprint. As the ambition of the business grows, the game changes and it becomes clear a new marketing playbook is necessary to succeed. My ambition is to be the best partner in the world for brands as they navigate these major mindset, strategy and executional adjustments. Chubbies Shorts is a great example and I couldn't be happier to be partnering with Rainer Castillo marie malette and team. They’re poised for incredible growth and already taking the steps to elevate how they compete in the broader lifestyle apparel market. They’re a bold brand with strong values, world class product and talent. We’re only just getting started but I’m thrilled to see our partnership develop. It’s a season of change in the marketing world. I hope to influence how the creative industry evolves to create better outcomes for the talent behind the work and also the brands who commission it. If you’re a founder or a marketer and think this sounds like where your brand is today, let’s connect. If you’re freelancing, looking for a new gig, or an old friend and want to say, Hi, hit me up. More to come.

Well done to you all

We're really all just trying to connect with people in life. Whether you're selling cars, houses, boats, etc. it's not the product that matters but rather the people that make the difference. At Bedard Bros. Auto Sales, Inc. you'll rarely find us posting about the cars, the savings, the rebates or any of the nonsense. Why? Because that doesn't make us special. None of that makes others special either. Do you really want to buy from discount or rebate or do you want to buy from someone you trust and have a connection with? What makes us special is our people. Bedard Bros. Auto Sales, Inc. is in an industry with an incredible amount of turnover yet we have very little. We also have very high customer retention. This is because for us people come first. When we make decisions our first thought is how it impacts our staff and our customers. The numbers come later. #people #employees #team #automotive #itshardtobeatbedard

In this evolving landscape, technology is the bridge that connects athletes and fans in meaningful ways. Take our innovative platform PROQ, for instance. It's not just an app; it's a revolution that empowers fans to directly engage with their favorite athletes. Through PROQ, fans can ask questions, seek advice, and gain inspiration from athletes who have walked the path they aspire to tread. Imagine a younger you being able to ask a rising star about their pre-game rituals or their journey from grassroots to professional level. It's an opportunity to be heard and guided by those who've been in your shoes, to hear their stories firsthand, and to grow through their experiences.
