Whether you became part of the R&R family years ago or are about to embark on our first project together, we wanted to take a moment to talk about our ‘Design Love Guarantee’ and the process we take to go from creative crush to long-term love. The New Business Process: It may sound a bit […]

Hi class, welcome to R&R 101, where your teachers are our teammates. Throughout the year we have the opportunity to shape beautiful designs and delightful copy, but long ago we discovered that we can’t do either one without first getting our learn on. You see, smart ideas are the backbone to successful marketing and communication […]

I was recently asked to participate in a one-on-one research interview regarding my thoughts on AI in branding. The study was being conducted by the Journalism and Communications school at my alma mater so I felt compelled to say yes. As I logged onto Zoom, I realized that it had been a long time since […]

Who Doesn’t Love a Theme? Every quarter, prior to our quarterly meeting, Karen and I pick a theme that we, as a team, can focus our goals around. We work to select something that everyone, regardless of role or experience, can champion and relate to. Over the years, we’ve had some that were aspirational and […]

If you’ve looked at any content over the last few weeks you’ve likely seen memes and headlines hyper-focused on the one-year anniversary of our “two-week” quarantine. If you’re like us, you’re a wee bit triggered by them. It’s hard to believe that it has been 365 shimmies around the sun since we’ve actually danced any […]

I know when the clock struck 12:01 on January 1, 2021 we didn’t have delusions of grandeur, but there was a small exhalation of breath, a bit of cautious optimism and a few glimmers of hope.
