Especially the people who believe in us as much as we believe in them.? Our brightest days are ahead.

We (along with 400+ other members of the creative community) were inspired by the wisdom shared by our Director of Brand Integration and Partner Angey Iazzetta and her fellow?Ad 2 Minnesota and?AdFed Minnesota Women's Leadership Panelists?Julie Batliner, Jasmine Russell, MBA, Annabelle Sherry and Moderator?Falen Bonsett.

Coupons. Some people like 'em. Those people are not who this is for. NOOOO. Some people neeeeeed to pay through the nose to cut the hair on their head. For them, we launched the Real Dumb Coupon. It adds $50 to the price of any haircut at Supercuts. Not $50 OFF. $50 ON! Why would anyone do that??? EXACTLY. Full Coverage on Ad Age: https://lnkd.in/gzFEVYFQ

Last week, our Creative Technologist, Cory McLeod was invited to the ?anis Lipke Memorial in Latvia to present his VR project and host a workshop on digital production techniques. The VR experience is called “Hanna’s Story” and is the first in a series of stories that tell the stories of people rescued by ?anis Lipke during the Holocaust. Cory's work is truly transformational, embodying the spirit of Rise and Shine. His storytelling reminds us that our brightest days are ahead. #VirtualReality #ImmersiveInnovation #NeverForget
