GET REAL – Embracing Change to Build a Unified Culture Mergers can be both exciting and nerve-wracking.? ? When TorchLight Hire and Big Lens (now TorchLight Marketing) came together, we knew we had an opportunity to build something special—but also a challenge ahead. ? Two companies. Two cultures. Two specialties. How do we make two feel like one? ? Looking back, the key to our success was shared values and a “Get Real” mindset. Despite differences, what united us was our commitment to real service, real industry expertise, and an authentic people-first approach.? ? Building that unity didn’t happen overnight. ? Here’s what helped: ?Meeting Cadence: Finding the right balance between structured collaboration and avoiding meeting fatigue in a fully remote team. ? ? In-Person Connection: Some were hesitant about quarterly retreats, but after dancing, singing, and truly connecting, even the skeptics saw the value. ? Now, two years later, our team describes how they feel: energized, empowered, grateful, and excited. The synergy we hoped for is now our reality. ? ?? For leaders navigating a merger—communicate. If you don’t, your team will fill in the blanks on their own. ? ?? For team members—stay open, ask questions, and embrace change. The best may be yet to come! ? ??

Last week, our team gathered in Virginia for our quarterly offsite, kicking off the new year with fresh perspectives, deep strategy sessions, and plenty of celebration. We dove into planning for the future, setting ambitious goals, and identifying initiatives that will fuel our continued growth and innovation. A key theme throughout? Differentiation. In an industry filled with smoke and mirrors, TorchLight stands apart because we are real. We are transparent. No unnecessary layers—just smart, strategic work from people who genuinely care about driving results. We also explored the evolving role of AI—how it will shape not just our industry but the world at large. As technology advances, our commitment to combining data-driven insights with real human expertise remains stronger than ever. And we had even more to celebrate—TorchLight turned 13!?It’s been an incredible journey, and we couldn’t be prouder of the work we’ve done or the people who’ve been part of our story. A huge thank you to our team and everyone who has supported us along the way! We’re energized and ready to take on the year ahead—bringing innovation, real impact, and true partnerships every step of the way. #TeamWork #StrategicPlanning #AIInnovation #CompanyMilestone #TorchLightHire #TorchLightMarketing #TorchLightCompanies

Today, we reflect on the powerful words and actions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose unwavering commitment to justice, equality, and service continues to inspire us all. Dr. King once said, “The time is always right to do what is right.” In the face of challenges, we must continue to strive for a more inclusive and equitable world—both in our communities and in the workplace. As professionals, we can honor his vision by fostering environments where everyone is heard, valued, and allowed to thrive. Let’s use today as a reminder to not only reflect but to take action. #MLKDay #Leadership #Equality #DiversityAndInclusion #TorchLightHire #TorchLightMarketing #TorchLightCompanies
