Hello. We’re DRIVE — a brand and marketing agency helping U of M teams develop consistent, engaging experiences that connect with audiences of diverse needs, backgrounds and interests. 

Having worked with the U of M for almost 20 years, our experience and understanding runs deep. It enables us to develop visuals and messaging that not only align with the U of M brand, but also showcase what makes your particular school, program, or event unique. 

We support schools, departments and programs by providing insight-driven, targeted marketing and creative services that are distinctively “you," and resonate with your specific audiences.

We also don't believe in having excessive layers of people and process which can bloat budgets as well as timelines. Our lean, tailored team of brand and marketing experts are here to help you reach your goals effectively and efficiently. And we’re a strictly senior-level agency. Why? Because it translates into smarter, faster, more-likely-to-boost-your-bottom-line work. 

Services and deliverables include:

  • qualitative and quantitative research
  • brand, marketing and social media strategy
  • brand identity systems
  • design templates, tools and guidelines for internal staff
  • targeted campaigns for specific initiatives, programs and events
  • academic + research communications (translating complex concepts into compelling, accessible communications)
  • creative services (print/digital design, motion graphics, video production and trade show experiences)
