The Playbook for the Attention Economy:
- Brand building (long game)
- Human-centered messaging & storytelling
- Best-in-class digital experiences
- Conversation-starting, scroll-stopping content
- Focused on nurturing community to inspire action
Our biggest challenge was helping people more quickly and easily understand why we use dance to engage girls in STEM. Cosmic helped us update our messaging and build a brand that is bold and compelling — and represents the vibrancy, creativity, and ambition of our mission.
