I’m On Board

Hi all -

I’m very proud to announce that I have been selected as an interim board member of the Chesapeake Sustainable Business Alliance. I couldn’t be happier about this, both because it’s an extraordinary young organization that has a lot of potential and because it furthers Orange Element’s commitment to operating as a sustainable design + brand communications firm.

In my work with the CSBA, I will be mainly focusing on outreach and social media, including their Chesapeake Sustainable Business Network, a groupsite powered by CollectiveX. The CSBN is a really important resource that helps to create a sense of community among business leaders in this space, as well as allows a free flowing exchange of ideas. I look forward to making it a hub for sustainability in this region.

I will keep everyone posted on my progress with the organization. In the meantime, if you are in some way related to sustainability or environmental causes and are doing business in Maryland, I encourage you to consider joining this organization. The benefits you will receive far outweigh the cost to join. Click here for more information: http://www.csballiance.org/pages/memJoin.html.

    Congratulations, Garret.

    I’m very grateful that you’ll be able to extend both your personal and career interests to the CSBA as members collectively make sustainability a focus on business operations throughout Maryland. Looking forward to seeing how Orange Element can be involved with this, too.

    [...] As a design + visual communications firm that still does quite a bit of print work, we tend to be very strategic in crafting direct mail strategies for our clients. We want to first ensure that the purpose of the piece will be accomplished by our creative work, meaning that our advertising objective is met and the consumer is motivated to act. We also want to be sure to avoid creating wasteful junk mail, because as you know, we believe in integrating sustainable choices into marketing programs. [...]
