Voice changed. Growth followed.
3x LinkedIn followers
200%+ increase in post reach
A national outdoor company came to the studio with a LinkedIn presence that was active but forgettable. The work began with listening: to the people who built the brand, to its customers, and to the stories it was already telling without knowing it.
From there came a defined editorial voice, a point of view the company could hold consistently, and posts written to be read rather than scrolled past. Followers tripled. Reach more than doubled. Passive readers become engaged advocates.
