We’re excited to be co-hosting the Winnipeg book launch for Mandy Balak’s Chasing Enough: The High Achiever’s Guide to Sustainable Success.

Part book launch, part panel discussion—we’re diving into the topics every entrepreneur and business professional should (and need to) be talking about.

The evening will feature an extra-special Creative Careers panel with Lee Waltham, 𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐁𝐮𝐡𝐬𝐞, Earth and Hide - Chuck Allen and, of course, Mandy Balak! The discussion will be moderated by Noella Andres.

Together, they’ll explore the pressure to constantly achieve, the invisible patterns that can keep high performers stuck, and what it looks like to redefine success on your own terms.

Join us for an evening of great people, shared experiences and an honest conversation about what it really means to be successful.

We’re bad at case studies...

This week, we’re talking about why we haven’t been great at showcasing our work.

People are curious about what we do, who we work with and, most importantly, the business and brand problems we help solve.

But somewhere along the way, “let’s make a case study” became a months-long process involving perfect stories, polished photography, approvals and piles of performance data.

All of which is hard to do when you’re busy doing the work.

So we didn’t do them. But recently, that’s changed.

We’re showing the work more. And over the remaining weeks of our vlog, we’re bringing you into it. Like, into it, into it.

We have 16 weeks left, and yet it feels like we’re just getting started. 👀

Work Spotlight: Veterans' House Canada

Veterans’ House Canada was set to open a new supportive-housing project in Edmonton’s Athlone neighbourhood. While support was strong, discourse became polarized as a small but vocal group raised concerns that threatened broader community buy-in. The challenge was to shift the conversation away from fear and misinformation to empathy and understanding for those who have served.

“In Uniform” was our response. Explore the work and the project above!

It’s Week 35 at the agency, and this week we’re talking about business development in an industry with notoriously unpredictable sales cycles.

“It’s About People” is more than a philosophy at Brandish. It shapes how we work, how we build our culture and, importantly, how we build relationships.

When Justine joined Brandish, she brought a fresh perspective on business development and relationship building that aligned naturally with the way we think about growth.

Hear more from Justine in this week’s vlog!

⭐ Work Spotlight: A College That Actually Gets You Hired for Robertson College

In a world where the future can feel uncertain, investing in education or upskilling can feel like a risk. Robertson College took a different approach, speaking with confidence: We’re a college that actually gets you hired.

With lifelong career support and education designed around modern life, Robertson College helps students build meaningful careers at any stage of their journey.

The campaign ran across out-of-home and digital channels in Manitoba and Alberta, and later evolved into a video campaign which ran on social.

We loved how direct and clear this campaign was. It left no questions about what Robertson College offers, who it’s for, or where it can take you.

The Winnipeg Sea Bears took home the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) championship last weekend. 

What a win. What a season. What a moment for the team and the city.

All the energy and pride we’re seeing has us reflecting on the Day One campaign from their inaugural season, which we were honoured to work on.

Watching how this city rallied behind the team from the very first tip-off and never let up is a reminder of how amazing Winnipeg is and how much it matters to show up and support!

Take a look back to see where the team began — honouring founding captain Chad Posthumus, whose leadership on and off the court helped build the team from day one.

Congratulations, Sea Bears!

Working at a small agency means wearing a lot of hats.

Like, all the hats.

From account management to operations to business development, there’s a lot that needs to get handled day-to-day. Derek is a great example — as partner and agency sponsor at Brandish, he juggles a lot in a given day.

And of course, we have to shout out Justine, our Director of Operations, who we’d ALL be lost without — and who keeps our Google Drive from turning into a disaster zone on the daily.

They’re just two examples of the many people wearing many hats at creative agencies — and we know we’re not the only ones with teams like this!

Shoutout to all the multi-hat-wearers out there. You’re doing a great job.
