Important: We’re Only Taking Canine Clients

A dog stares at the camera with big brown eyes.

If you only know one thing about us, it’s probably that we love dogs. Currently, we have eight office dogs that we share our workspace with, but we have decided to expand. We can’t contain our love for dogs and we figured, why should we?

A Furry Friends Agency

While we have always been dog-friendly, we are thrilled to announce a shift in our integrated communications approach. We will no longer be doing marketing for businesses and non-profits. Instead, we’re going to focus solely on canine clients.
From branding and public relations to website design and content marketing, our expert team has the skills and expertise to take your four-legged friend from dog park wallflower to the bark of the town.

A Message from Our Fearless Leader

Our industry is constantly evolving. Dog accounts and appearances are taking the world by storm, and we believe that we can fill the void. Our goal is to take over dog marketing so that dog-momagers (or dog-parentagers, but that doesn’t have as good of a ring to it) are able to pursue their own ventures outside of managing their dogs’ accounts and publicity.
Our founder and boss lady, Kim Bode, shares why we believe this is a great transition for our agency. “We have found that those of the canine variety are much better communicators than their human counterparts. We are excited about this new direction for the agency and are actively taking on new furry clients”

Tested and Proven Results

Our Digital Associate, Megan, shares that this announcement has been in the making for a long time now. “This may seem like it’s coming out of nowhere, but we’ve actually been testing the shift to only dog content on our social media for months. The organic engagement on these posts far outweighs our expectations and blasts industry standards out of the water. Converting to a dogs-only firm was only the next logical step.”
With experience in managing personal dog social media accounts, our Creative Lead, Chelsea, who is currently a dog-momager, will be able to combine her personal ventures with her passion for creative design in-house. She says that 8THIRTYFOUR’s shift is a “dream come true” for her.

Hand Over the Leash

We are now accepting canine clients. Please visit our contact page to submit a message. Don’t forget to include what holes we can fill for your dog’s social media presence, along with what breed of dog you have. We are excited to have you join us on this new adventure!

Something on Your Mind?

If you ever need proof that personal brand matters...Kim got to see the @nasaartemis II launch in person as a direct result of her Big Deal Energy™. 

You need to work hard, show up authentically, and provide value. That was her message to a room full of students and young professionals at @western_michigan_pmi's theProject Collegiate Competition. 

The Big Deal Energy™ Workshop is on June 23. Register at the link in bio.
Employers think Gen Z is lazy, entitled, and will quit the second things get hard. That perception is keeping you out of the room before you ever get a chance to prove otherwise.

The good news is, you can flip the script, but it will take some serious work and a personal brand, or as Kim Bode refers to it: Big Deal Energy™.

Kim is speaking at theProject™ Collegiate Event, hosted by the Project Management Institute Western Michigan Chapter on April 14. She'll cover how to build a personal brand that actually sounds like you (not ChatGPT) and how you can show your value through social, content and networking.

No one talks about how lonely it is to own a business. The tough decisions land on you, the business doesn't pause when you need a break, and nobody - not your employees or your spouse - really gets it. 

If you know a business owner, tell them they're doing a good job. It matters more than you know.
The growth stage is the hardest part of building a business. 

Kim was recently quoted in @corpmagazine on what she sees running the Women's Entrepreneurial Fellowship: women who have built something, survived the hardest part, and are still doing everything themselves. The natural tendency to be humble and attached to their work creates unique business challenges for women; they put up walls because they can't be vulnerable. 

Meanwhile, when a woman CEO needs growth capital, she compiles three years of tax returns before a bank will schedule a meeting, while her male competitor closes the same deal over drinks.

When women have access to the right resources, they grow and invest back. Full article at the link in bio.
