DirtFish Brand Revamp

DirtFish is a rally school, located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain range, that is dedicated to teaching the exciting sport of Rally to anyone who shares an interest. Although they started small and with a passion and desire for everything rally, their format quickly gained wide recognition, evolving them to be the most prestigious rally school in North America. With a much bigger audience, their stakeholders knew they needed to up their game brand-wise, and that's when Chief Executive Officer, Steve Rimmer, and General Manager, Mac McInnis, came to V2Works for help. V2Works consulted with Dirtfish's stakeholders on several positioning concepts to provide recommendations on the strongest direction for a global brand identity.

V2Works Celebrates Another Successful Year with the IDEX Health & Science Marketing Team

V2Works was fortunate to play host to the U.S. marketing team from IDEX Health & Science this week. Their team flew to Seattle from all over the country to spend a full day with our crew, where we met new people and hashed out details of their recent merger. We covered a lot of ground in a short period of time, which left us all feeling satisfied and excited for great things to come.

The Perks of a Power Outage

On Tuesday, November 17th the Pacific Northwest experienced the second major storm in a matter of months, wreaking havoc around the Seattle area and beyond. Winds, which were clocked well over 100 miles per hour, plus heavy rains (and reports of pea-sized hail) caused extensive damage, knocking out power to hundreds of thousands of people. The power at V2Works was no exception, but one of the perks of being a team full of creatives, is that we're always up for some amusement. Even if that means trekking through the wind and rain — and snail-paced TRAFFIC — for a chilly, dripping-wet adventure. The first day of our power-outage found a group of us at the new McMenamins Anderson School, down the road in Bothell, where we savored one of the only delicacies [...]

2nd Annual Office Pumpkin Decorating Contest

Since last year's pumpkin decorating contest was such a hit, we decided to repeat the pumpkin fun for everyone and make it an annual event. This year, it was a race to the conference room for each Brandgineer to chose the perfect mini-pumpkin from an assortment that varied in size, form, and color. Whether inspiration came from their own cleverness, or they received artistic messages from frightful spirits of regions beyond, creativity ran rampant. Happy Halloween from the V2 team!

Our Annual Summer Outing was Just Ducky

Every year V2Works celebrates summer and team camaraderie with the people who make great design happen every day: our talented team of Brandgineers! This year our team traded in their computers for Ducks, then flocked to downtown Seattle. The pleasure trip started with a loud, yet tasty lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe, where we filled up on good food, refreshments, and lively conversation. After our appetites were satiated, we traversed the land and water of the city in a WWII amphibious landing craft — otherwise known as "Ride the Ducks of Seattle." Led by our Sea Captain, "Bob Frapples," the day continued its very loud theme with plenty of jokes, laughter, music, and fun. Here are a few highlights of the day. #Frapples! The V2Works team lunching at [...]
