Spotlight on: Creatis Studio as Ongoing Partners

What’s the Creatis Studio?

A team of Creatis designers, writers, proofreaders, Powerpoint specialists and project managers trained on client brand standards who work on-site at Creatis or remotely to execute creative/marketing projects. Our Studio is able to handle all kinds of creative/marketing work including presentation development, content creation, digital assets, versioning and marketing materials. This includes a thin layer of project management so our clients can focus on other top priorities. In other words, we’ll do your spring work cleaning for you! *(And it sure looks like spring is here to stay outside!) The studio saves our clients time and money, and adds a little peace of mind, too.

The range of projects our Studio works on go from a small one-off Powerpoint Deck Design to monthly or annual ongoing support - like our multidimensional support of Portico. If a client has needs that go beyond a few bundled projects - and really needs help over the long-term - we’re a fantastic resource.That ongoing support aspect is why we call ourselves great “execution partners.”

Why is Creatis Studio a good execution partner?

First of all, we’re flexible. And because we’re flexible - we can create the capacity to adapt to client needs - no matter what they are - big or small.
We can proofread thousands of documents or work on more complicated graphic designs and production.

Our studio works from an annual or individual project budget - so clients never pay for work they don’t need. Our flexibility is more than just being able to scale up and down resources; we’re chock full of talented people trained with diverse creative/marketing skills, too. They’re the perfect mix of right and left brain. So when you need a little or a lot of different kinds of creative resources, the Creatis Studio should be your choice. 

As execution partners, we manage work all the way through the marketing process. We do things like project in-takes, design/production, proofing and final delivery of materials - both print and digital. This kind of behind-the-scenes work really frees up our clients and alleviates stress. And the fact that we keep delivering excellent product quickly puts our clients’ minds at ease. They know they can trust the Studio with ongoing work.

Here’s a highlight of 5 different clients and how we support them as an ongoing execution partner:

We are the sole partner for Optum’s monthly proofreading program. This is a big task and we love doing it because we’ve got the sharpest, most savvy proofreaders in the Twin Cities working on Optum’s documents - which, given the healthcare industry’s standards - must be checked and proofed for 100% accuracy. Last year we completed 150 projects and proofread almost 3,000 documents for Optum. 

Marketplace Events - Provide weekly design/production support of all Marketplace Events’ trade show materials for over 40 national events including exhibit signage, billboards, digital media and more. We work proactively to get their designs and templates updated and ready to go in time for each show (Spring, Fall, Holiday). In our over 4 years of working with MPE, we’ve executed thousands of projects.

We are the sole execution partner for the Ameriprise Ad Program. We work on approximately 50 to 60 advertisements per month that include; billboards, presentation signage, business cards, print & digital ads, mailers for Ameriprise Financial advisors and much more.

We manage annual versioning of hundreds of sales materials and emails for UnitedHealthcare's intensive open-enrollment periods. Some of the work included PowerPoint updates & cleanup, print brochures and emails. Our dedicated project managers work with several different UnitedHealthcare teams to delegate tasks to our designers who can quickly and effectively execute projects according to time sensitive deadlines. We’re great at working with highly matrixed companies because we can help them keep things straight by providing prompt, clear communication. In 2018 we completed almost 60 projects for UnitedHealthcare.

Portico - We provide weekly, monthly and annual support from creating dynamic emails to open-enrollment design and communications. We love supporting great companies like Portico and saving them much needed time and resources by easing the weight of their marketing workloads. In 2018, we completed over 130 projects for Portico.
