Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
In Q3 and Q4 of 2024, we partnered with Flashlight Marketing to lead a comprehensive rebranding initiative for our established children's performing arts nonprofit, formerly known as Catholic Community Choir (CCC). As our organization continued to grow and evolve, we recognized the need for a brand identity that better reflected our mission, expanded reach, and long-term vision. This project was particularly significant as we were simultaneously establishing the Shine On Foundation, our nonprofit organization, and transitioning our longstanding CCC identity into **CCC Shines**. Our goal was to honor the legacy and community recognition we had built over the years while creating a fresh, inclusive, and forward-thinking brand that would support our next chapter of growth. Flashlight Marketing worked alongside our leadership team to help translate our organizational vision into a cohesive brand identity and messaging strategy. Key areas of work and deliverables included: **Brand Strategy and Positioning: Helping us define and articulate our evolving identity, mission, values, and positioning as we transitioned from Catholic Community Choir to CCC Shines. **Organizational Naming and Brand Architecture: Supporting the development and alignment of CCC Shines as our public-facing brand alongside the newly established Shine On Foundation. **Visual Brand Identity: Developing a refreshed, recognizable brand aesthetic that reflected our energy, creativity, professionalism, and commitment to inspiring children. **Brand Messaging and Storytelling: Refining how we communicate who we are, what we do, and why our mission matters to families, donors, sponsors, and the broader community. **Brand Consistency and Implementation: Establishing a cohesive direction for presenting our new identity across marketing, communications, and organizational touchpoints. **Rebrand Launch Support: Helping position our organization for the public introduction of CCC Shines and the Shine On Foundation in November 2024. This was much more than a name change or visual refresh. It was an important organizational transformation that required balancing nearly 15 years of history with an ambitious vision for the future. Flashlight Marketing helped us bring clarity, intention, and cohesion to that transition, creating a brand foundation that could grow alongside our programs, partnerships, fundraising initiatives, and community impact.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The success of our rebranding project extended far beyond a new name and visual identity. It helped establish a stronger foundation for organizational growth, expanded community engagement, and increased opportunities for fundraising and partnerships. Following the launch of CCC Shines and the Shine On Foundation in November 2024, our organization experienced 22% growth in 2025 and an additional 30% growth in 2026 to date. These results reflect significant momentum as we continue expanding our reach, programming, and community impact. The rebrand allowed us to more effectively communicate the full scope of our mission. Transitioning from Catholic Community Choir to CCC Shines helped us move beyond the limitations of our former name while preserving the trust, recognition, and legacy we had established over nearly 15 years. The creation of a cohesive identity for CCC Shines and the Shine On Foundation also strengthened our positioning with prospective donors, corporate sponsors, community partners, and families. Perhaps most importantly, this transformation has positioned us for an exciting new chapter as we approach our organization's 20th anniversary in 2027. We now have a brand that not only honors where we started but reflects the organization we have become and the impact we aspire to make in the decades ahead. While our growth is the result of many organizational efforts, Flashlight Marketing played an important role in helping us establish the clarity, confidence, and brand foundation needed to support our continued expansion. Nearly two years after its launch, the brand remains a meaningful part of our organizational success and future vision.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Our experience with Flashlight Marketing was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, their team delivered a level of service, professionalism, and personal investment that far exceeded our expectations. It was truly a white-glove experience.
Their project management was thoughtful, organized, collaborative, and responsive. They kept the process moving while ensuring we felt heard, supported, and involved every step of the way. What could have been an overwhelming organizational transformation became an exciting and energizing experience because of their approach.
What truly set Flashlight apart was the genuine care and compassion they brought to our project. They understood that this wasn't simply a rebrand. It was nearly 15 years of history, relationships, and mission being thoughtfully carried into a new chapter. They treated that responsibility with the same level of importance that we did.
Their creativity, enthusiasm, and ability to make the process genuinely fun were remarkable. They celebrated our vision alongside us, brought fresh perspectives to the table, and made us feel like more than just another client.
Flashlight Marketing didn't just manage a project; they became invested partners in our mission and success. That level of personal attention and commitment is rare, and it made all the difference.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
What impressed us most about Flashlight Marketing was their extraordinary ability to combine strategic expertise and creativity with genuine care, compassion, and personal investment. They didn't approach our rebrand as simply another project or client relationship. They took the time to understand our history, our people, our mission, and the heart behind everything we do.
There is something incredibly special about working with a team that is not only exceptionally talented but also makes you feel genuinely seen, heard, and valued. Flashlight brought an infectious energy and excitement to every interaction, making what could have been an intimidating transformation feel inspiring, collaborative, and fun.
Carly and her team's ability to honor nearly 15 years of our organization's legacy while helping us envision an entirely new chapter was remarkable. They challenged us creatively, encouraged us to think bigger, and cared deeply about getting it right.
What makes Flashlight unique is that their work feels personal because it truly is. They don't just build brands; they build relationships, champion their clients, and become genuinely invested in the success of the organizations they serve. That combination of talent, heart, and commitment is what sets them apart.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Flashlight Marketing LLC could have done differently?
It's genuinely difficult to identify an area for improvement because our experience with Flashlight Marketing was exceptional from beginning to end. Carly and her team's consistently exceeded our expectations in their communication, creativity, responsiveness, and attention to detail. If anything, we wish we had engaged them sooner! The value they brought to our organization extended well beyond the original scope of the project, and the experience reinforced just how impactful the right strategic partner can be. We walked away not only with a brand we are incredibly proud of, but also with a relationship we deeply value. There is truly nothing significant we would have changed about the experience.
