Sometimes the smartest move isn’t another email subject line or boosted post—it’s showing up in someone’s actual mailbox. Direct mail has a kind of presence digital can’t replicated: it interrupts the scroll, cuts through the noise, and lingers on a counter or desk in a way a digital ad never will. When used with intention, it’s less about old-school tactics and more about tactile strategy.
An online catalog can either be a brand’s best sales engine—or its fastest way to overwhelm a visitor. The difference is in design and discipline. A great catalog doesn’t just “list products”; it curates them, guides discovery, and makes exploration effortless. If you’re loading dozens (or hundreds) of items, the key is thinking like a shopper, not just a seller as you build your website.
There once was a study of doctors and lawsuits, and what it found may surprise you. Those who showed up with their patients in a warm, professional way were less likely to be sued than their colleagues with better outcomes who didn’t exhibit those traits.
Let’s be honest: running a hospital or clinic is resource-intensive. Marketing dollars can feel scarce, and social media often gets squeezed. But here’s the good news—you don’t need a blockbuster budget to create a social media presence that feels professional, engaging, and trustworthy. What you do need is consistency, creativity, and a clear sense of what matters most to your community.
You only have a few seconds to make a good impression online.
That’s why good, intuitive design is so vital. Humans see thousands of images every day, so you have to give them reason to pay attention to yours. Not only is it about creating a visually arresting look, but good design engages the human brain on a subconscious level.

A brand is so much more than a logo, name, or visual identity—its what people think about your business, product, or individual. It encompasses every experience, interaction, and message that shapes how someone feels about your brand.
Brands are built one impression at a time and in ways that most people aren’t even aware of.
A new logo can become a memorable, recognized symbol that represents and elevates your brand.
But some logos end up creating negative issues for their brand. They can inadvertently become controversial, be difficult to use, or even convey an undesirable image.
That’s why it’s so important to prevent those problems during the development stage. Here’s a checklist to help you think through all of the possibilities and challenges a new logo can bring.

Finding and persuading the best talent is competitive, and requires more than advertising the position, providing a job description, or detailing benefits and compensation. Most people are looking for a sense of purpose and connection in their work—so that should be a central part of any recruitment communication.
