Setting Up for Success with Empire Solutions

We travel where our clients need us. That’s what we did last month, heading to Nashville with our friends at Empire Solutions for Aluminum USA

Empire Solutions needed to be seen at the biggest aluminum industry conference of the year. Face time with current and potential clients, brand visibility, and lead generation don’t happen behind a computer screen. Sometimes you have to get on a plane and make it happen.

Strategy Matters

Empire Solutions came to us with challenges like no social media presence and limited brand recognition in a crowded industry. They needed to stand out at Aluminum USA, where every booth would be fighting for the same attention.

We built a strategy around their strengths—deep technical expertise and genuine relationships. The goal wasn’t just to look good at the show. It was to start conversations that turn into business.

So Does Design

Good design does more than make things pretty. It stops people in their tracks and makes them want to know more. 

We designed booth graphics that told Empire Solutions’ story clearly: who they are, what they solve, and why it matters. Clean, professional, impossible to ignore.

Why We Show Up

We know the importance of showing up in person. It’s why when a client asks us to come to Nashville with them, we get on a plane. We’re there to help, whether it’s setting up, bringing in potential customers and partners to their booth, or documenting the whole thing on social for them.

The results speak for themselves: 

Show Leads
0
Engagement Rate on LinkedIn
0 %

That’s the point of integrated communications. Everything works together, including the people behind it. When our clients need us in Nashville or anywhere else, we go. Their success is our success.

Something on Your Mind?

Running 8THIRTYFOUR on EOS has allowed our team to find consistency in what we do and given us a framework to hold each other accountable. 

It's why @bodespeaks highlighted it in her latest @fastcompany contribution.

We put everything business owners, employees, and educators told us on the wall, and guess what... yeah, some of it was mean. 

The point is, everyone is saying it about each other, not to each other, and nothing is getting fixed that way. 

Thanks to everyone who showed up to have the Uncomfortable Conversation on the skills crisis, and whether you were there or not, let us know what the next one should be.

Defense and manufacturing run on precision, protocols, and deadlines. When a team miscommunicates... things slip, and the cost adds up.

Kim will be at the Michigan Defense Expo in Detroit on May 13 to talk about the Hard Cost of Soft Skills (or as we call them, survival skills) and what we can all do about it.

If not for you, do it for her. 

@bodespeaks will be talking to @sheleadssocietymi on May 21 about Big Deal Energy™ and what it means to own what makes you - you. 

Don't let mediocre men tell you you're too much. That's on them. 

Come to the talk, it'll be fun. Link in bio.
We always say work smarter, which means bringing in expertise you don't have and hiring people who make your team more complete. 

That's what Kim Bode said in a recent @fastcompany article on building sustainability into your business.
