Important: We’re Only Taking Canine Clients

Share the goods.

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!

National Perimenopause Month starts today. We have a LOT to say, and we’re not going to be quiet about it, especially this month, so buckle up.

We were not prepared for perimenopause, much like our periods, sex, or anything else to do with our bodies. God forbid we talk about it openly.

We were taught to be ashamed, keep quiet, and to accept that it is just part of being a woman. We reject that narrative. In fact, like @bodespeaks, we want to bring it up in every conversation. 

When we normalize perimenopause and the conversation around it, we stop isolating, and we’re all more prepared.
Join us for Uncomfortable Conversations: The Pause on September 24th — a powerful conversation hosted alongside the @smallbusinessassocofmichigan
