The Spirit of Christmas!

The smile in the eyes of a child, the warm embrace of a stranger, the sense that somehow, no matter what’s happening in the world around us, there is love, there is hope and there is joy. That’s the Spirit of Christmas. The Spirit of Christmas cannot be manufactured, packaged, or sold. It can only be felt in the heart. And perhaps more importantly, it can be shared. During the holiday season, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the hustle of hosting and bustle of buying, but perhaps it’s even more important to slow down and enjoy the best…

GreatLIFE Challenge

They make it look so easy. Willow Run Golf Course in Sioux Falls is the place to be this week for LPGA hopefuls from the U.S and 24 countries as they compete for their piece of the biggest purse - $210,000 – in Symetra Tour history and a coveted full exempt status on the LPGA Tour.

6 Tips for Making Business Personal

If you’re like most people, it’s been a long time since you called your bank and an actual person said hello and was ready to help you. With the virtual extinction of the local grocery store, chances are good you don’t know the butcher’s wife and kids who didn’t go to school with your kids. And it’s likely that you don’t really know the guy that works on your car, your pipes, or your air conditioner. In a world that’s becoming ever more impersonal, that rare moment when you make a real connection with a real person seems remarkable. Want…

Who is Protecting Your Brand?

A brand means many things. It can be a name you recognize instantly or the way your customers feel about you. It can be a stunning design and a message about who you are at your core. With so much invested in your business and brand, it’s extremely important to protect both. Simple things like a great logo and consistency in the use, appearance, color and tone of your marketing materials make a big difference in breaking through the clutter of the competition. Your brand should not only be recognized, it should be repeated, respected and give your clients a…

Exceptional Customer Service – It’s in our Roots.

Roots make a difference. At least that’s what HenkinSchultz partner, Joe Henkin, attributes to his business philosophy – one he shares and passes on to the marketing team at HenkinSchultz. “Part of my family’s culture is to volunteer and help people,” he said. It’s not surprising that helping people solve marketing challenges has become Joe’s life’s work, not only at the company he started with Kirby Schultz in 1991, but in the community. Since the time Joe was a kid, he understood media exposure. His father started KSOO in Sioux Falls in 1959, and by the time Joe was nine,…
