The end of another year is upon us. And with it, of course, it’s time for reflection and, dare we say, new beginnings? When we started this “thing” over 18 months ago, we had no idea what kind of journey we’d be on. We really just wanted to provide better design and messaging strategy to people who shared our values and a Progressive vision for the State of Michigan. It has since snowballed into a creative collective of over a dozen people—each bringing unique backgrounds and gifts, ideas and experiences to the process. With help from each of them, we were able to help launch a Progressive brand. Get 16 people running for various offices the help they needed for their races. We gave local Democratic clubs and advocacy groups a chance to tell their stories. And most of all we did it with integrity and intelligence.
