A Love Letter to Our Clients

Share This Post:

A thank you letter addressed to “Our Clients” from 8THIRTYFOUR rests on a team member’s desk.

We’re not big into feelings and lovey-dovey stuff over here but we have to tell you, 2021 wouldn’t have happened without our incredible clients. 

Partnering with small businesses, non-profit organizations and even international corporations is no small feat for a team of our size. We take pride in the tailored approach we deliver to all of our clients and in turn, we’ve had a record-breaking year. 

We’ve been able to be part of some pretty damn big things! We’ve pushed 26 businesses into the 21st century with new websites and a foundation for digital growth. We’ve had over 500 pieces of earned media for organizations that trusted us to get their message in the right hands. We’ve had 15 businesses ask for our expertise to rebrand and position them in the right audiences. We’ve had 34 companies need comprehensive strategies for everything from their messaging, branding, public relations down to launch and specific campaigns. 

Without all of you, our clients, we wouldn’t have gained the professional relationships and authentic friendships that we have today. That is something we won’t ever be able to thank you for enough. 

Thank you for making 8THIRTYFOUR who we were in 2021, we can’t wait to see what we do together in 2022. Now hold onto your pants, shit’s about to get real.

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.
