Happy Birthday to the amazingly talented and hilarious Mo Philippi, our superstar illustrator and designer! ?? Your creativity knows no bounds, and you light up every room (and all our faces) daily. We’re so lucky to have you as part of the Moxie team. Cheers to celebrating you today! ???? P.S. Yes, the last photo is Morgan Philippi's GQ cover submission.

Back in August, Shanti Yoga Center approached us to help plan and promote their 5-year anniversary celebration—and we were all in! ?? With organic efforts only (no paid ads), we crafted a strategy that connected with the community and met their audience where they already are. Over six weeks, we launched a fully organic social media campaign designed to engage current class members, attract new audiences, and involve local businesses. To extend the reach, we also created printed postcards to spread the word offline. The result? A successful celebration that brought the community together and celebrated their 5 years in business!

Ready to make 2025 a successful year? Then the time to plan is now. ?? We know planning can feel overwhelming, so we’ve made it simple: ?? Identify your current strengths to build on. ? Pinpoint weaknesses, pitfalls, and potential threats to stay ahead. ?? Set realistic goals and break them into actionable steps. Time flies, and what you do now will shape where your business stands a year from now. Need support? Our consulting services are here to set you up for success!

If your business hasn’t planned for the holidays, don’t panic… yet. ?? There’s still time to wrap up the year with a bang—whether it’s showing gratitude to your customers, giving back to the community, or launching a simple, but effective holiday campaign. Feeling overwhelmed? Don’t worry, we’re here to help make it happen! ??:https://lnkd.in/g3We2nNb

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting St. Cloud State University graphic design students for an agency tour! ?? Mo, our talented senior graphic designer and illustrator, along with Taylor, our skilled account manager and copywriter, gave the students a behind-the-scenes look at our branding process. From initial sketches to final designs and expanded marketing materials, they got a hands-on glimpse of what it's like to work in an agency setting. It was great to share our process with the next generation of creatives!

Exciting news! Our Taylor is officially a published writer! Check out the latest edition of Business Central Magazine, where you'll find her feature on mastering email marketing on page 18. With her exceptional copywriting skills, attention to detail, and expertise, Taylor Sellnow crafts email newsletters, blogs, and social content that captivate readers and play a vital role in our clients' marketing strategies. We're so proud to have her on our team!

Howlin’ good apparel deserves a howlin’ good website! ?? We recently worked with White Wolf Custom Apparel & Design on a brand new website, and not to toot our own horn or anything, but we're pretty proud of how it turned out. We love working with their pack because they're always down to take risks. In fact, they even pushed us to break the mold on a few occasions. Who doesn't love a client that wants to be BOLD? Enjoy a mid-day scroll and hop over to their site or socials to learn more about White Wolf Custom Apparel and Designs. ??: https://whitewolfmn.com/

Search engine optimization (SEO) VS Pay-Per-Click (PPC). ?? In the grand scheme of things, both have similar end goals: helping your website rank at the top of search engines like Google. However, SEO builds a long-term foundation for organic ranking, while PPC helps you reach the top only when you're bidding on specific keywords. Both strategies are important, but if we had to choose one to invest in first, we’d recommend SEO. ??

There’s a quote that goes, “Throw me to the wolves, and I will return leading the pack.” Cliche as it may be, it perfectly sums up the kind of leader Kelly Cane is. Throughout her life, both professionally and personally, Kelly has faced incredible challenges. Tackling each one head-on and navigating obstacles with resilience, they’ve all left her a little wiser and a heck of a lot stronger. When we think of what it means to have Moxie, Kelly has it all—grit, spunk, and determination. Always leading with empathy and teaching her team to do the same, Kelly has made a name for herself in the marketing world, and those who have had the opportunity to work with her are better for it. Happy Boss’s Day, Kelly! We couldn’t ask for a better leader. ??
