After more than 20 years of helping organizations grow throughout northern Minnesota and beyond, we have some exciting news to share. Evolve Creative is joining Pinnacle Marketing Group.
This is a milestone, and one that doesn't happen without the people who have made the last two decades possible. So before we get to what comes next, we want to start with gratitude.
To our clients: thank you for trusting us with your stories, your brands, and your goals. The tourism organizations, nonprofits, small businesses, and resorts we've worked alongside have shaped this agency as much as we've shaped any of your campaigns. Every site we built, every campaign we launched, every late-night revision, all of it added up to this moment. You've been the reason we kept showing up.
To our team, past and present: the work has always been a collective effort. Strategy, design, copy, development, the small details and the big swings, none of it happens without people who care about doing it well. Thank you for caring.
To Bemidji and the wider region: there's something particular about doing this work from northern Minnesota. The communities here have always been an audience, a client base, and a home. We're grateful to have built something here.
What this means in practice
The relationships our clients have with our team are not changing. The people you've come to know at Evolve are still your people. Projects in flight stay on track. Your point of contact, your strategy, and your timelines remain the same.
What does change is what we can offer. Joining Pinnacle means access to a deeper bench and a broader set of capabilities. Pinnacle brings over 30 years of marketing experience and services we haven't had under our own roof, including directory advertising and publishing, expanded photo and video production, TV advertising, and listing management at scale. For our clients, that means more options, more in-house expertise, and a stronger team backing the work we're already doing for you.
We're still Evolve Creative. Both brands will continue operating as they do today while we evaluate where collaboration and integration make the most sense. The plan is steady, intentional, and built around making things better for the people we serve.
Looking ahead
We chose Pinnacle because the fit made sense. Two Bemidji-based agencies, both committed to this region, both built on long client relationships, both serious about doing the work well. The combination strengthens what we can offer without diluting what we've built.
There's a lot to be excited about. New capabilities to introduce to longtime clients. New opportunities for our team. A continued investment in northern Minnesota and the businesses that make it run.
Thank you for being part of the story so far. We can't wait to see what comes next.
