It’s hard to believe that the year is almost over, but here we are, wrapping up and winding down before the holidays. As is customary at this time of year, we’ve been reflecting on all the work we’ve done and all the ways we’ve grown, and you know what? It’s been one heck of a great year!
So before we say goodbye to 2024, let’s take a look back at some of the highlights of the last 12 months!
16 New Clients
2024 brought a lot of amazing new people into our lives, and we’ve had such a great time getting to know them and learning about their businesses. Several of our new clients came to Blue Elephant specifically for our Website in a Week service, some needed support on short-term projects, and others were looking for long-term social media and marketing support.
6 New Partner Projects
Since 2022, Blue Elephant has been a proud partner of Snow Collective, a consortium of entrepreneurs and agencies working together on larger client projects. In 2024, we took our partnership to new heights with six new partner projects! We love collaborating with our Snow colleagues, and we look forward to working together on these and more in 2025.
6 Website Launches + 1 Refresh
We do a lot of ongoing website maintenance and updates for our clients, but it’s always a lot of fun for us when we get to build a new website from the ground up. This year, we designed, built, and launched six new websites – a Blue Elephant record! We also helped another client with an extensive website refresh, and we have more website projects in the works for next year!
250+ Newsletters & Articles Written
Between email marketing newsletters, LinkedIn newsletters, and one-off articles for our clients, the Blue Elephant team did A LOT of writing this year. According to our records, we wrote and deployed over 250 newsletters and articles this year – another Blue Elephant record!
80+ Social Media Accounts Managed
New clients and new projects meant adding more social media accounts to our regular roster, which also meant getting to design new social media templates and getting to do even more writing.
Herd Highlights
Of course, none of those professional accomplishments would have been possible without our amazing team, which grew both literally and metaphorically this year.
We were thrilled to welcome (and welcome back) new members of the herd, starting with Olivia, who joined us for a third summer (and stayed on into the fall!), and later Erin, who joined us in the fall. Since joining the herd, they’ve helped us tackle community management, content creation, social media scheduling, and more!
We also began a new partnership with Stacey Lewis of ARYMEDIA. Stacey is a digital marketing consultant with expertise in a variety of areas, including web development, SEO, keyword analysis, and Google Analytics, and bringing her into the mix has allowed us to offer our clients even more services and technical support.
Other herd highlights from 2024 include attending our first digital marketing conference together and instituting monthly in-person co-working days. As much as we love the perks of working remotely (flexible hours, no long commute, wearing sweatpants to work), we really value being able to spend time together as a team, bounce ideas off each other, and of course, do some socializing!
This has been a year of learning and growth for our team, and we’re so proud of all that we’ve accomplished together. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to work with such creative colleagues, passionate partners, and cool clients.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this such a successful year for us! We can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for us!
