May 10, 2016

Writing is hard, even for those who have to do it on a daily basis. A lot goes into creating really great writing, whether it’s

We're so excited to introduce our newest Account Manager, Megan Norman. Not only is she a supermom to a pair of twins, but a wizard at all things marketing. Join us in welcoming our in-house "Brainy Witch," who blends magic spells of neurobiology and marketing savvy like no other. Welcome, Megan. We're so glad you're here. 🥂

Just a girl who knows what she wants.

We headed to #GVSETS2024 last week to represent our friends at Women in Defense Michigan, the largest chapter in the country. After the tradeshow, we thought it would be helpful to write a blog about marketing because it seemed there may be a lack of strategy (we're not pointing any fingers). Link in bio.

Joining forces with ChallengeHER, @8thirtyfour is in Colorado Springs working behind the scenes this week.

Thanks to WIPP, @americanexpress, and @sbagov, this event is free and open to women owned small businesses looking to do business with the federal government

Check out upcoming events linked in bio.

P.S. Hit us up in the comments for t-shirt details if you'd like to match with us.

🚨 Generational smackdown 🚨

We dropped a hot take on bridging the gen gap without losing your damn mind (or authenticity).

Spoiler: It involves shutting up and listening. Revolutionary, we know. 🙄

Hit the link in our bio to read why your "hip" social media probably sounds like a middle-aged dad's fever dream and why that 60-year-old account manager might actually know their shit.

Fair warning: We don't sugarcoat. If you're allergic to straight talk and the occasional F-bomb, maybe skip this one.

To give you an idea of Millie's level of celebrity in the office, these were all taken in the same day. Then shared and fawned over in Google Chat.

Ultimate Personality Hire ✨💅🏻

Frank loves his time in the office but is ready to be promoted to work from home. Check out the link in our bio to help support Frank on his forever home journey.

Yes, we will absolutely put on vests, safety glasses, and hard hats to hang with @spolympicsmi.

In need of a thank you or how you doing card? Swing by the 8THIRTYFOUR office and we'll give you a set and click the link in our bio to learn why notes are so powerful.

As marketers, we hear some myths about branding that drive us to drink. Check out the link in our bio and commiserate with us.

It is National Book Lover's Day, so we felt compelled to share what the team is reading right now. 📚

The content vs how we all act while the content is happening.

And obviously, we didn't serve this baby alcohol, don't come for us.

Listen up, PR pros, and follow the link in our bio. Hear from Lauren all about the best ways to pitch and what to avoid. Link in bio.

The feature that gives creators the ability to make AI versions of themselves is a little over a month into its beta phase. Things are...weird. And we want to know if anybody besides Mark actually wanted this feature.

@socialmediatoday has some of the same questions, check out the link in our bio to learn more.

This beautiful boy is in need of help and a home. Frank came to us with physical and emotional wounds. He's been treated and is healing, and is on his way to specialized training to give him the best odds for his future.

We refuse to let Frank become another statistic, and we're very optimistic he'll have a great life with the right home. For now, the bills to take care of him have added up to over $5,000. If you're able to help in any way, we've set up a fund, which you can find through the link in our bio. Every little bit makes a difference.

Frank is the sweetest guy and just wants to be loved, something we don't think he's experienced before. If you're interested in adopting him, please DM us.

The type of joy only candy can evoke.

He knows we're onto him for lying on his resume.

It's National Intern Day, so of course, we have to celebrate Emily. 🎉

Except at 8THIRTYFOUR - it's associate, not intern. We 🫶 you, Emily. Thanks for making us laugh, always.

We recently visited @feedingwestmich to volunteer and do our small part in connecting our neighbors with the food they need, not only to survive but to thrive. 👏

Learn more about Feeding America at the link in our bio.

Enjoy some background info on Chica. And yes, her tongue is almost always out.
