Creativity
Creativity At Work
We collaborate closely to complement our strengths and inspire new ideas. A brilliant concept can come from anywhere and anyone, so we are always open to share opinions, voice objections or suggest alternatives to come up with a solution that’s efficient, effective and… well, effervescent.
We have so much fun working together it makes every day feel like a new adventure!
- Jay, Web Developer
I am amazed and inspired on a daily basis by the artists in this building. The level of talent and creativity at Grapevine is unlike anywhere I’ve ever experienced. It is incredible to be surrounded by dynamically gifted individuals that are truly masters of their craft.
- Dane, Director of Video Production
Fun
There's Fun To Be Had
Life in our office is fast paced, driven by unique personalities who bring fun to the table and create a diverse, energetic atmosphere full of laughter and smiles. They say that when you love what you do you never have to work a day in your life. We believe it because we live it. Here at Grapevine, every day is a celebration of camaraderie, community and coming up with creative concepts alongside people who are just like family.
From team building activities at TreeUmph Adventure Course, to alien themed potlucks, there are so many things that make our culture fun! We truly are a family!
- Lisa, Executive Creative Director
I love that we don’t take ourselves too seriously. There’s always raucous laughter that echoes down the halls daily.
- Rob, Director of Web Development
I LOVE our Grapeful Jar! It’s such a great way to lift spirits in the office and acknowledge each other.
- Cara, Client Relations Manager
I think that the things that truly help enhance our company culture are our potlucks. What better way to connect than with food? We even up the stakes and “compete” against each other to create the most unique and interactive themes. Great fun and sense of team!
- Kristie, Chief Development Officer
Results
Clients Come For The Results
Sure, the pictures and snappy headlines are great and all, but we know you’re here for one reason only: results. That’s why we’re here, too. Our team understands the importance of being clever and strategic while staying a step ahead of the trends to bring real marketing, advertising, public relations, social media and website results to you.
It’s good that we get to know the client before we begin a large project for them. This way, the end-product fits the character of their company and its people.
- Shane, Senior Art Director
Community
We Love Our Community
If your mission is to help others, Grapevine is here to help you. We have time, talent and treasure to willingly and eagerly contribute wherever the need is present. When it comes to giving back, we’ll donate money and services, color Thanksgiving cards, shop for and deliver gifts or food, walk dogs, fold costumes, sweep floors, pour beer, sing songs and even give blood. Whatever it takes, we’re there and
we’re ready.
we’re ready.
I thoroughly enjoy volunteering and giving back to our community and doing it with my work family makes it all that much better!
- Joan, Director of Production &
Project Management
Our company culture is one of the most important aspects of who we are at Grapevine. It’s showing up every day knowing your teammate has your back through all the ups, the downs and the in-betweens to ensure camaraderie and confidence in everything we do. It takes this unity and cohesion to create a positive, pleasant workplace you enjoy going to every day, with people who naturally bring out your creativity. Think Paradise Island meets the Island of Misfit Toys. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
- Allison, President/CEO/Owner
