Regardless of our love for Instagram stories and aesthetic lattes, we don't really consider ourselves social media influencers here. We'll leave that to the Alix Earles of the world. But what does influencing really mean? Don't we all have some sort of influence, regardless of our follower count? Gianna DiPaolo thinks so. ??

Pittsburgh Pickle Co. picks Picklesburgh as perfect place for potential partnership. ?? (say that 3 times fast) As a local pickle business in Pittsburgh, it seemed like a no brainer to attend the world's largest pickle festival - which happens to take place right here in the 412. But how could they make it even more special? Our challenge was straightforward, we needed to get one of Pittsburgh's most iconic brands, Primanti Brothers, to notice what Pittsburgh Pickle Co. was doing. With all the faith in their product, and the help of the massive crowd that this annual event brings in, Pittsburgh Pickle Co. received the support of 1,300+ festival goers who agree that Primanti's sandwiches could only be improved with PGH Pickles.

Sustainability can be hard to talk about. Its technical, complicated, and some would even say boring. Koppers needed to introduce their new sustainability plan to their employees, and the world, in an easy-to-digest and engaging way that got them excited for the future. What better way than through the universal language of video games? ?? The protagonist, Koppers K, strategically hops, skips and jumps to level-up his Sustainability “game,” while unveiling the key components of Koppers Sustainability Plan with a distinct look, feel and aesthetic for each value. This video aired at an all-employee meeting, where Koppers team members from around the globe watched the Koppers K come to life — making way for the launch of an entire Sustainability brand. ????

Yesterday was #bossesday, but we waited to celebrate until we had cookies that have our bosses faces on them, duh. ?? Dan Ayer & Jeff Barton are not only our fearless leaders - they support us however we need, provide endless encouragement, and always hear us out on our ideas, no matter how crazy. You guys shucking rock! ????

Our social media feeds are filled with so called "life hacks" that are supposed to make life easier, but do they actually? Kylie McCracken's keyboard hacks are the real deal, and they'll help you save time as you spend your work day typing away. ??
