Hello again from Paper Crane Factory.
This is our most recent PCF quarterly-ish Newsletter, and we’ve got a bunch of updates. It's generally more fun to read a linked version- just drop us a note at [email protected] and we'll add you to the email list.
First, thanks to everyone who attended the PCF Night Market! We launched Decision Pigeons, Roanoke Brand, LOKA and shared new projects from Curly Deluxe.?Their stories live at https://tinyurl.com/thePCF.
First, Gumball Dynasty
We’re actively helping pair people and teams to projects. We launched in 2023 as a project-based, strategic and creative resource for both ad agencies and brands with more work than staff to do it. We're now 150 individuals and teams, ready for a quick onboarding and fast delivery. Give Dee Dee a few minutes and a completed form. We can help clear some plates and put talent to work on things stuck or spinning.?
