Creatis & Cargill - Planting Seeds of Service
There's an old saying that goes, “What you plant now, you will harvest later.” While this applies literally to Cargill’s agriculture and nutrition markets; it also works as an analogy to business relationships.
Creatis believes in and practices planting seeds of service from our first contact with a client. But you can’t stop at the meet/greet or nothing will grow and develop! We take seriously the practice of nurturing business relationships through authentic dialogue and creative/marketing expertise until those acquaintances become fully-fledged shared journeys.
We’re finding success with impactful global companies like Cargill because we don’t just throw out wild sales-pitches and fail to put our money where our mouth is. We knew that an innovative, unique company like Cargill needed a team of experts able to quickly understand their needs and offer solutions. Preparation was key to being able to best add value to Cargill.
Several years ago, through contacts our leadership team made with marketing leaders at Cargill, we were given an opportunity to provide support on a print production project.
This team at Cargill needed on-site assistance but required an individual with a very specific skillset and background. We had the perfect Creatis employee who we knew fit Cargill’s culture. He was able to jump in and help and delivered with excellent ongoing work.
Through the reputation of our timely, impactful services and other referrals within the company - our relationship with one team at Cargill bloomed into many. And ultimately, our support helped more Cargill teams be successful and efficient. That’s the best kind of harvest for us.
How We Support Cargill
Like the way Cargill takes raw goods and turns them into finished products, Creatis helps turn unfinished Cargill projects into finished products.
Over the past 5 years, we’ve partnered with Cargill to help their marketing teams get more work done. Because of the flexibility of our model - offering both on-site support and remote project-based resources whenever needed – we’re able to meet Cargill’s needs quickly.
We’ve worked with several different divisions and teams at Cargill, including Protein & Eggs, Cargill Corporate, Business Operations and Supply Chain and Cocoa & Chocolate.
Creative/Marketing Services
The Creatis Studio services to Cargill have included: PowerPoint design & template creation, icon creation, infographics, signage and more.
Our expert employees have also been able to support Cargill on-site in a variety of roles that include design, art direction, digital project management, business analysis, marketing research and content management. In some cases, our assistance has gone beyond traditional creative/marketing service, which isn’t typical for Creatis - but it worked because we took the time to understand what the specific client’s challenges were, and then responded accordingly to be of service, even when it meant leaving our comfort zone.
This is what we’re good at - providing the right resource to make an immediate difference on a client team. We’re so glad to support Cargill and aid in their efforts to help the world thrive
