Who We Are
Based in Minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes, it just makes sense that our home office is located on the shores of one. Our team is a group of adventurous creatives who are extremely passionate about what we do. With analytic and design-minded people alike, we know how to help your brand figure out its unique selling points and then create the marketing assets to best promote it! If you’re ever out to coffee or a drink with one of us, chances are that we’ll have a THRILLING conversation with you about design trends, SEO best practices or how to minify javascript.
Our Expertise
Evolve Creative has always put quality and finesse first. We’re passionate about what we do and love showcasing our work. We enjoy partnering with businesses who share our core values, because together, we can do great things! Since 2004, our team has worked with hundreds of companies large and small. We love partnering with our local partners here in Northern Minnesota, but have also developed several sites for international businesses, large corporations in New York and Texas, and gorgeous vineyards in Napa Valley.
Our Process Sets Us Apart
We love the outdoors, and so we believe that creative consultations should be more like a campfire chat. A place to find the best in collaboration and ideas, but also just a great way to get to know one another.
When you choose to work with Evolve Creative, you’re choosing a team who is passionate about what they do and is meticulous about the quality of their work. While other agencies try to get more volume in and then “churn and burn” their projects out, we’re different. We know that every client has different goals, so we hand-craft every design, website, and marketing campaign specifically for your needs. We don’t use any cookie-cutter approaches and never outsource the work abroad.
Our Core Values
The team at Evolve Creative lives and works by our core values. These have been determined by our staff as values that we embody through every interaction with each other and our clients:
Adventure
We are the true Northern Minnesotans—seeking new adventures in both the great outdoors and inside our creative spaces. We immerse ourselves in your industry to fully understand trends, influencers, and competition. In our free time, we venture out into the wilderness, and venturing out to spend a day in the life with you is another favorite way for us to learn more about you and your needs.
Curiosity
“Try to learn something new every day” is a phrase that’s heard a lot in our offices. There’s so much knowledge to learn in the world, and it would be a shame to not try to gain something new (no matter how small) at least every day! Our team of creatives always tries to think outside the box, isn’t afraid to try new things, and is always asking questions about how we can make things better.
Integrity
Sometimes it’s hard to do the right thing. But our team firmly believes that integrity is what has helped build our business over the last two decades. When you work with us, you’ll soon learn that we do what’s right, even if it makes our lives more difficult. Integrity in our products, our transparency of marketing campaigns, and our billing practices are all things that set us apart.
Innovation
We don’t shy away from change. Over the last 20 years, the internet, websites, and design trends have changed drastically, and we embrace the challenge. We’re always innovating and finding new ways to use our tools. From hand-drawing custom icons on an iPad, to dictating blogs with voice-to-text—we’re always on the lookout for new technologies and ways to innovate.
Authenticity
We believe in staying true to who we are. We recently took personality tests as a team and discovered that we’re all introverts, and that’s okay! That’s who we are—and we’d rather embrace it and be our comfortable, nerdy selves than try to pretend to be something that we’re not. Once you get to know us better, we open up quickly, and you’ll realize how good it is to have quiet dorks working on your project!
We’ve Got the Experience
For over 20 years, Evolve Creative has been helping guide bold brands—from building initial brand concepts, logos, and style guides, to expert web design and digital marketing. We’ve helped hundreds of businesses and organizations modernize their brands and grow. No matter what stage you’re in, Evolve Creative can help. We’ll help you from the initial concepts all the way through designing a trade show booth and your marketing materials.
