Feb-burr-uary at Speak! Agency

 

 

Yes, we did just make up our own word to celebrate our agency's anniversary's. We celebrated Celia's 6-months of working with our team by laughing together over tacos and brownies. Margaritas may have been on the table as well. We have loved working with her and we're so glad she moved all the way from Virginia. Cheers, Celia! 

 

 

Speak! was very happy to host our client, Dell at our office this past month to discuss collaboration on future projects and how we can help to achieve their goals. It was a pleasure to have quality face time together and lay the groundwork for continued success. We also met up with our client at Edge Networks in Vancouver, Washington to talk about new strategies for the next quarter. We always have a great time when we meet with our clients in person, but of course we love phone calls too! 

 

 

When the Hillsboro Chamber of Commerce invited us to speak(!) at their Business & Entrepreneur Academy about entrepreneurship and marketing, we couldn't say no. The event is part of the Chamber’s School to Career program. The School to Career program facilitates career-related learning experiences for Washington County high school students. These real-life experiences give the students vital information on potential career interests and help prepare them for the future. These experiences are now a requirement for graduation in Oregon. We had the privilege of sharing the fundamentals of branding with class of 20 students. It was fascinating to see how many young people already have the passion to become a business owner after high school. 

 

 

In other news, some of our team members traveled to the beautiful Oregon mountains for sun and winter sports. Jason shredded the mountain on a snowboard, Celia sat in the snow while admiring the other skiers and some of the team members awed at the snow-capped volcano from miles away. No matter where we were, we were having fun. 

 

That's it for now folks. See-ya-later, February!
