Our industry is desperate for positive disruption, a better alternative, and a fresh voice. Clients deserve agency partners who are accountable, courageous, and substantive in helping them achieve results.

It’s time we turned this industry upside down under. And start focusing on solving clients’ hardest problems.

Building a brand means creating moments people want to be part of.

Since launch, we've partnered with TennPop to help shape what it means to be the Seltzer of the South. A connected brand experience across identity, packaging, social, partnerships, and culture.

A few highlights:

• Turned the Outrider and Seltzer of the South into a distinctive brand platform and storytelling device
• Designed the full can lineup, packaging system, brand collateral, activation materials, event experiences, and branded merch
• Built an influencer program rooted in authentic Tennessee lifestyles
• Brought the brand to life through Music City Rodeo, the ACM Honors, WNXP's Summer Line Series at Nashville Yards, bar placements, and local partnerships
• Sold into +100% of target accounts in the first 90 days
• Built a social presence that feels unmistakably Southern from every angle

More than a seltzer. It's the Seltzer of the South.

Long before his portraits hung in the U.S. Capitol and the Smithsonian, Michael Shane Neal got his start in the industry right here at BUNTIN.

A Nashville native and Lipscomb University grad, he went on to become one of the country's most sought-after portrait artists, painting everyone from Congressman John Lewis to President George H.W. Bush to Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.

Today he works out of a historic Manhattan studio once used by Norman Rockwell's own teacher and chairs the Portrait Society of America. We're proud to say BUNTIN is where his story began.

Meet Jillian. 👋

She's our SVP, Communications + Brand Marketing, a library regular, a green goddess snap pea enthusiast, and someone who always knows the best spot for a chocolate cone. When she's not knee-deep in comms strategy, you'll find her wandering the stacks or catching up with Tyler at Part-Time Lover.

This is the 10th edition of our Employee Spotlight series, where we skip the headshots and meet our coworkers in their favorite places.

Another great week for our friends at Trex Company, out at the American Century Championship at Lake Tahoe. The Trex Hub, built entirely from their own decking, was the place to be all week. We're proud to have helped bring it to life.

We're back with another round of BUNTIN Bookmarks, where we peek inside a team member's Saved folder to see what's been catching their eye lately.

This time it's Grace, Brand Director/Senior Brand Lead. Her saves range from sneaker upgrade hacks for her 40-pair collection to opossum rescue clips she can't stop sending her daughters, a dirty martini with blue cheese olives, a Molly Baz recipe on repeat, a maternity leave deep dive into Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Erling Haaland's World Cup antics, and those Lay's ads everyone's talking about.

We asked our team when they graduated high school, then pulled a top song from that year. Which is your favorite?

Taking a look at a favorite from the archives, a project we're still proud to have worked on: Dollar General's first-ever TV campaign, turning 50 this year, starring Jim Ed Brown. It also happens to be true that Jim Ed hailed from Dollar, Arkansas. Some things are just meant to be.

Still figuring out where to watch fireworks tomorrow? The Chief's on Broadway rooftop with a Vodka Mango seltzer in hand is a good place to start. We're proud to celebrate with TennPop and all our client partners. Happy 4th, y'all!
