As Thanksgiving approaches, we want to take a moment to reflect on everything we’re grateful for—and trust us, it’s a lot. At the top of the list? Our clients who inspire us and our incredible team who make it all happen. To our clients: Thank you for trusting us with your vision and giving us the opportunity to bring bold ideas to life. Together, we’ve tackled challenges, celebrated successes, and pushed boundaries. We’re grateful for every collaboration and the chance to help you think bigger and go further. And to our team: You’re the ones who turn ideas into magic, chaos into clarity, and deadlines into deliverables (with style, no less). Your creativity, dedication, and ability to keep things fun while getting the job done makes this place one-of-a-kind. Simply put, you’re the best. To those of you considering working with us: This is the team you want in your corner. Hardworking, fun-loving, and big-thinking, we’re here to help your vision stand out and succeed. Let’s make something amazing together. This Thanksgiving, we’re raising a glass (and maybe a slice of pumpkin pie) to all of you. Here’s to a holiday filled with laughter, relaxation, and all the mashed potatoes you can eat. With gratitude, Jason Smith and Thomas Frank

Huge congrats! 😎 Belgian October means, you start the day not knowing what to wear. 𝐈𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐝? Not really. 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧? Well.. not really. Anyways, our 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 always 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭 as they showed up to meet with each other and share their stories. I have learned about their daily 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 challenges and their 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬.    I did not know that I would be talking about dungeons & dragons.. in a dungeon! Thanks Bram Verlez 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨 𝐝𝐨𝐩𝐞 🧙♀️ .   Some 𝐩𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐬 did not make the 𝐃𝐨𝐠𝐮𝐞 cover of last week, so they get a special place in this week’s review.

Happy Thanksgiving Friends! And yes, we have much to be thankful for... no matter how bad we think things are, they could be worse, and for too many, they are. When you get to my age, almost everything is seen through the lens of nostalgia. And Thanksgiving Day TV was not to be missed in my day... and no, not just for the after-feast Football games. Many would remember the spectacular Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, eclipsed only the New Year's Day, Rose Bowl Parade. Thought about those heady days of childhood in America's Golden Age this morning. Looked for the Macy's Xmas Parade, but it was only available with a subscription. The Philadelphia Parade, a solid imitator, was carried live on Roku through an abc-tv affiliate outlet in Philly. What I noticed amidst all the great musical entertainment, bands and dancers, was the number sponsored by 'charity' or representing charitable causes. And Ads, one presumes, were making Corporate media large amounts of money, given the numerous commercial minutes and announcements. Even our charities are profitable business. Which left me with the distinct impression we aren't economically better off, 60 years later, with trillions more in Wall St. value, and astronomical personal fortunes among the top 1/10 of 1%. Multi-Billionaires are the new 'Millionaires'. With globalized capitalism, one suspects the North Pole is someone's corporate subsidiary, the elves are contract foreign labor, and the big man himself is just seasonal help - no benefits and certainly no retirement plan. ;-) Memories of better times never die, they just fade away with those who kept them. Consistent with today's economics, Santa has just showed up in Philly, courtesy of Blue Cross - as insurance is the most profitable business in the US, while there is some question of how much longer Macy's will be able to hang on in brick and mortar retail. The Amazon Thanksgiving Day Parade? Having trouble envisioning the Holiday Spirit in warehouses full of robots. Maybe they can dress them up as elves? Less than 4 shopping weeks till Christmas Dear Hearts. Yes, the days do get shorter, when the days dwindle down to a precious few... Let's make the most of them. One more day, one day more.
