Our color palette blogs are almost as popular as our grammar ones, it’s a close race. This blog will be the deciding factor.

We’re talking fall colors, so grab a sweater, turn on your heater, get comfortable, and check out the best and brightest in autumn hues.

Gourdgeous

Nothing says fall quite like gourds, pumpkin, butternut, acorn and spaghetti squash. Their colors are vibrant and remind us of comfy blankets and the smell of fall leaves.

This color palette honors these great gourds with desaturated tones of yellow, tan, and orange, all grounded by a dark green. Use this for decorations, invitations, signage, and more.

Works best when paired with a Pumpkin Spice Latte, obviously.

Unbeleafable

There is nothing better than the smell of leaves on the ground or your neighbor excessively burning them. Seriously Bob, you’re gonna set the neighborhood on fire.

The two greens make you want to frolic through an autumn field, while the browns crunch beneath your feet. The gray represents those early October mornings. Use this when you need to create refined documents that still evoke an autumn flare.

Works best when paired with hot apple cider. It’s up to you whether or not it’s spiked (ours absolutely will be).

Inspfired

We’re HUGE fans of fall bonfires, especially after a cold day spent outside. These are a great way to warm up, along with iced wine and s’mores.

That’s what inspired this smoldering palette. The bright red and orange are grounded by a dark, deep crimson, which is the color of smoldering coals. All of this contrasts with the blue grays of an autumn dusk. Just looking at the palette makes us smell bonfire. Use this to break up the typical aesthetic of the season. It’s great for punchy events, eye-catching flyers, and more.

Work best when paired with: hot cocoa, especially when you’ve roasted marshmallows to go with it.

Are you in love with our palettes? We know they’re pretty awesome. Let us put our design skills to use for your brand. Contact us, and let’s get those colors flying.

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.
