We bring clients’ visions into sharp focus. Here are just a few whose missions we’ve made our own.

Supporting higher-ed and corporate learners. Long-term, edtech client Blackboard relied on DepartmentC as a full-service creative partner. From case studies to audience-generation campaigns to branding, messaging and beyond, our team brought both functional expertise and a deep understanding of the edtech industry to every project. The result: quantifiable impacts, including high email open rates, webpage views, and most-downloaded content.
Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist

Setting the gold standard in healthcare. When leaders at Wake Forest were ready to reimagine and modernize the hospital’s legacy branding, they turned to DepartmentC to spearhead it. Team members managed multi-agency efforts to build a robust suite of assets supporting the new identity, including a brand guide, messaging, collateral, digital ads, and more.

Sharing the science with the public and stakeholders. DepartmentC fully staffs NASA’s Biological and Physical Sciences (BPS) Division’s Communications Team. We are responsible for developing the comms strategy and a wide range of products, including articles, videos, graphics, website content, and social media. Our commitment to excellence has earned us NASA awards and, more importantly, resulted in measurable impacts to putting BPS on the map.

Reaching a global audience and evolving a brand. International leadership development company, CCL, enlisted DepartmentC to support a wide range of strategic projects, from thought-leadership reports to social media campaigns to restructuring their internal marketing organization. Our ability to address multicultural audiences and align creative with the company’s new brand direction enabled CCL to achieve its enrollment goals.
Transact

Connecting the dots on technology offerings. Transact Campus sought a partner who understood edtech audiences and could help communicate the value of the company’s payment and security solutions. Enter DepartmentC. Our team was able to seamlessly support a wide spectrum of marketing initiatives, including sales enablement tools, print and digital campaigns, social media, and more.
RealResponse
Overview
Amplifying awareness of a start-up that provides a safe space for students and athletes to voice concerns. When RealResponse, an innovative communications platform, was ready to elevate its brand awareness, the company turned to DepartmentC. We collaborated closely with its founder to develop core marketing assets as he built out his full-time team. Key assets included messaging, press releases, case studies, brochures, social media posts and graphics, videos, and more.
Fairfax Connector
Overview
Connecting with the community where they live, work, play–and commute. Fairfax County Connector, the largest local bus system in Northern Virginia, sought to increase residents’ awareness of route changes and available resources, including bike storage and free parking garages. To help the County achieve its goals, DepartmentC developed and executed plans to engage with commuters at key transportation hubs and summer concerts.
Mobile Frontiers
Overview
Building a brand from the ground up. When telecom services firm Mobile Frontiers was ready to take its brand to the next level, the company turned to the team at DepartmentC. The result: a robust portolio of assets that included a brand identity, logos, messaging, website, social posts and graphics, video, press releases, case studies, and more.
