Manifesto Agency

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Senior Manager of Branding and Corporate Communications Channels for a global government contractor. Our contracts with federal, state, and local governments across nine geographies include healthcare, technology, consulting, and workforce services.

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency, and what were your goals?

In the wake of a shifting business strategy and overdue need to break down silos across operations and geographies, we sought an agency partner for a global rebrand to create a newly refreshed brand indicative of who we are today. With only a subtle brand shift from nearly a decade ago over our 45+ years in business, and a widened audience seeking human-centricity as service providers, we wanted to reinvigorate our brand with a new look and feel reflective of our common mission across all nine regions we serve, globally.

Among this rebrand was the consideration of cultures, our distinct color palette, and the global nature of our work that must appeal to a wide range of target audiences. We sought more than just a visual brand rollout, but an overhaul of the brand’s system of beliefs, intended to lift the eyes of all employees, partners, and stakeholders around a new, global vision.

How did you select this vendor?

Our search was primarily driven online where we discovered Manifesto with their stellar reviews and impressive portfolio featured on their website. Out of the multiple agencies we evaluated, including three creative agencies with which we currently do business, we selected Manifesto because we not only wanted a ‘fresh pair of eyes’ on this project, but were also drawn to their unique approach and strategy outlined in their proposal. With all that in mind, we decided they were the right partner for us.

Describe the scope of their work in detail, including any steps and the final deliverables.

• Develop a bold global brand identity with a new look and feel that considers our complexities around sub-brands and audiences
• Understand the current brand equity and affinity in the market, as well as show an understanding for the industry as a whole
• Develop an identity that considers our current geographies and the possibility of expansion into future markets, and accessible to all audiences
• Support our strategy to navigate the internal climate for the preparation of a rollout
• Identify our company’s onlyness and fertile visual identity territory through audience, stakeholder, and market research
• Establish a new logo system, including a color palette and typeface refresh
• Explore how the updated visual identity translates across assets and visual brand touchpoints

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

The team included an account lead, a creative lead, and strategy support staff. Manifesto’s model involves bringing in a cast of characters across their team to support at the right time, when needed, in the project.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The project concluded and we are currently rolling out the global brand. Our new visual identity was met with positive feedback, and we gave Manifesto Agency the credit! They may support us on brand awareness campaigns in the future.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Weekly meetings with concise agendas and high-level notes. Google Drive for documents and Sheets for project timeline management.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Branding a global company with so many audiences and key stakeholders is no small task. Manifesto came alongside me personally to help navigate some of the internal hiccups of the culture that made the rebrand challenging. I felt like I could lean on them as a partner for the duration of the project. Their model of friendship first, business second meant we build good rapport through the highs and lows.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Exploring an online project management tool that is not Google based would make collaboration easier and more efficient. While I’m often faced with application blocks working for a government contractor, talking our CISO in to unblocking all Google apps for a group of users was no easy task. Possibly a tool like Smartsheet that’s open to the web for any user could help organize rounds of revisions, feedback, and creative/proof reviews in a central place for easier reference later.

Worldwide Consumer Talent Acquisition Marketing Team / Art Director.

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency?

We looked to Manifesto to create a messaging strategy / platform and a unique visual identity system for our MBA Pathways program. We leveraged their strategy and creative services to accomplish this work.

How did you select this vendor?

Our WW Operations team was referred to Manifesto based on other Amazon projects the agency had previously worked on.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

• Research, insights & messaging development
• Program visual system and style guide creation
• Asset development for deployment

What was the team composition?

The team included an account lead, a creative lead, and senior copywriter as well as creative & strategy support staff.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The Pathways recruitment team loved the new creative and adopted it fully. The new strategy created a consist and delightful experience for Pathways candidates.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We had weekly meeting with the Manifesto team to discuss progress and review the work to date. The Manifesto team was highly collaborative, took and implemented feedback well, and always came prepared with data and insights.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Manifesto has supported us at Amazon to take bigger steps as a team. We think of them as an extension of us and our team as they have continued to tackle new assignments and deliverables that come up. We can rely on Manifesto to deliver high-caliber messaging and creative execution—innovating while staying within our Brand guidelines.

Is there any area for improvement or anything that could have been done differently?

We greatly valued the quality and thoughtfulness of the work produced by Manifesto. At times they have struggled to move at the pace or within certain budget requirements needed. Ideally, it would be great to have an option for lighter-weight, speedy, and agile support as well as the more in-depth work we have come to associate Manifesto with.

Please describe your company and your position there.

Director of Marketing, Neurology, Quest Advanced™ Diagnostics

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency, and what were your goals?

Manifesto was hired to help us create an Alzheimer’s awareness campaign for Quest Advanced™ Neurology and our ongoing role in helping to shape the future of early dementia detection.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We were interested in a strategic collaborator that could help us take our positioning to the next level.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and marking tools used.

• Strategy and campaign approach framework
• Essential message & narrative creation
• Development of treatment (writing, visual direction)
• Creation & curation of anthemic video content
• Social launch strategy for campaign

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

The team included an account lead, a creative lead, senior copywriter and involvement from the partners at varying points in the project.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Manifesto had been an ally in helping us at Quest make bolder moves. They were an extension of our team. We like to think of 

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Very effective - the team has been attentive to our needs and timelines.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Most impressive is the team I get to work with. The Manifesto team is composed of servant-hearted people who really care about the individuals behind the brands they serve. When fully engaged, they help us solve strategic business challenges through the work we do together—whether arming the sales force with a rally cry or capturing the nuanced narrative of an Alzheimer’s awareness initiative.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Their strengths are creative and strategy, with an ability to leverage collaborations to accomplish a wide variety of deployment. To shore up their offering, they work with agencies (like a PR firm) or a production company so they can be more full-service when needed. They’re more specialists than generalists. Also, sometimes they are so focused on the strategic goals of the program, it can impede them from diving into the work immediately. This is a pro and a con. Some other firms might start developing content faster with little to no direction. Manifesto prizes strategy and getting off on the right foot, so you’ll never be short on strategic input from Manifesto. Overall, we are very pleased, which is why we continue to use them.

Sustainability Strategic Messaging and Master Platform Development: The work outlined in the scope covers strategic, creative and administrative work

How did you select this vendor?

Manifesto came recommended for another project for the brand. That work did not proceed, but the impression made and connection built in the scoping of that project positioned them to be asked to take on this project.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

2-4 throughout the project. CEO Head of Comms Account Manager Project Manager

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The time spent with Manifesto was beneficial in a variety of ways from helping us think about our goal from an outside perspective, to conducting the discovery phase and hearing from important internal voices that we had not heard from before to pulling it all together into an achievable, focused plan.

The greatest challenge I think they faced in working with us was in helping to gain greater internal alignment. At the beginning of the project, there was very limited attention and interest in the work. Our internal teams were at odds with the priority. But, by the end of the project, there was a room of ~25 cross-functional team members excited about how to use this body of work going forward.

That internal alignment could not have been achieved without the effort, understanding and patience of the Manifesto team. While there was a pause in launching the project, the plan was later infused in major company announcements and strategies.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Working with the Manifesto team was both easy-going and completely structured. The account manager and I spoke weekly by phone and as often as needed by email. Milestones were clear and achieved consistently by the Manifesto team.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Working with Manifesto was unique and enjoyable due to their deep branding expertise and knowledge. They really took the time to understand our brand, mission and goals. Throughout the time we worked together, it felt more like they were part of our brand and team rather than an external consultant.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

None come to mind.

Please describe your company and your position there.

Cirrus Secure is a B2B SaaS company selling a cloud-based collaboration portal that connects providers and their customers in the onboarding or asset-origination processes. The platform has its roots in the commercial lending environment.

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency, and what were your goals?

We hired Manifesto to help us reinvent the Cirrus corporate brand identity, positioning and messaging to position Cirrus for future growth and investment.

1. Reinvent and evolve the Cirrus brand, positioning, messaging, and ecosystem and create a cohesive and scalable foundation for brand storytelling and website relaunch.
2. Clearly separate Cirrus from competitors and uncover the positioning and messaging for the brand
3. Humanize the brand and create more than a product based on uncovering and articulating what the brand stands for
4. Successfully relaunch the website with a new brand identity and messaging

How did you select this vendor?

We found them through a google search and after meeting with several agencies we felt that we were aligned in terms of ethos and ambition. We were drawn to their human-centric approach to branding.

Describe the scope of their work in detail, including any steps and the final deliverables.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

• Audience and competitive research
• Brand Strategy including positioning and onlyness and messaging
• Brand narrative/manifesto
• Brand identity asset and playbook development
• Website design and copywriting

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

The Manifesto team included strategists, copywriters, and a design team as well as Creative director and Associate creative director. Both the partners and the team were involved at various points in the project and consulted with us on strategic decisions throughout the engagement.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Manifesto completed the rebrand of Cirrus in June of 2021 and launched the website in July 2021. We are continuing to work with Manifesto on developing new brand assets for activation.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We had weekly project management calls with the account exec and often many other key members of the team. In these meetings, we coordinated additional information needed and exchanged ideas for the project as it moved forward. We communicated as well in slack, which was helpful for our team. They were timely in all to-dos as the project moved toward completion.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Manifesto really understood who we are and connected with us on a deep level. They have a friends first business second model and this really stood out to us the first time we met for a brand immersion session. They were able to navigate working with an earlier stage high growth startup but also brought a lot of critical thinking to the table when we needed it most.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Their account management team was going through a transition during this time and at various points in the project other team members stepped in to fill those gaps.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I was the chief admin officer at Mount Mary University.

What challenge were you trying to address with Manifesto Agency?

Student enrollment was declining and we thought that our brand wasn’t well-understood. We wanted to hire a partner that could help us redefine and bring new life to our brand while honoring our history.

What was the scope of their involvement?

They worked with us to define our brand through a series of conversations. They identified how we viewed ourselves and the language we used. Then, using that information, they created a brand manifesto for us. Our brand identity outlined what images, templates, and language we would use for our ads so messaging was consistent.  

Once we were in agreement, they worked on digital content including a video that described our brand at a high-level. Then they created several videos that showcased our strengths. For example, we have a great fashion program, so they focused on that.

In addition to creating digital content, they created print ads, radio ads, billboards, and social media ads. We also refreshed our college magazine so it would consistent with our new brand.

In summary, they helped us create a story that was interesting and engaging for our audience — young women looking to go to college. We came up with a new campaign called “Here’s to the Bold,” which was a nod to our history and we hoped would inspire a new generation of women to get their education here.

What is the team composition?

We worked with Tim (Chief Storyteller & Managing Partner). Then we worked with 2–3 team members on copywriting and design.

How did you come to work with Manifesto Agency?

A friend of mine introduced me to them a few years ago at a conference. I was blown away by their boldness and the vision they had for their own company. They seek to do things greater than themselves and want to help their clients create success.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent upwards of $250,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project started around January 2014 and wrapped up sometime around July 2016.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

We accomplished what we set out to do — we increased awareness and understanding of our brand. There was a lot of buzz about our rebrand and it increased enrollment.

We were able to make a cultural shift and change how we viewed ourselves. In that, people began to believe in what we were trying to achieve. Our employees definitely became more engaged.

How did Manifesto Agency perform from a project management standpoint?

I always felt well-informed and my team had a good rapport with them. As expected, we hit some bumps in the road, but I always knew that I could call Tim and he would be responsive.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re radical creatives. They’re able to look at things with fresh eyes and see things other people don’t see. Then they bring that forward with the right visuals and messaging to appeal to people rationally and emotionally.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Overall, it was a great experience, but they could have provided more support when we rolled the manifesto out to the academic side of our organization. There’s a divide between the administrative side of our organization and the academic, and it was difficult to get the academic side on board with the new brand. Change doesn’t come easy, so more support on that would have been helpful.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I would definitely recommend them to anybody considering them. I can’t imagine that they would take on a project that wouldn’t be successful because they come up with these radical ideas that make clients feel like there are endless possibilities.

Chief Marketing Officer at a healthcare oranization

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency?

We faced an internal challenge of rallying our primary care physicians around a future strategy for the company. There was little engagement around the mission of our healthcare system. And primary care physicians needed to know that they were being heard.

What were your goals for this project?

We faced an internal challenge of rallying our primary care physicians around a future strategy for the company. There was little engagement around the mission of our healthcare system. And primary care physicians needed to know that they were being heard.

How did you select Manifesto Agency?

Manifesto has a philosophy of “friends first, business second.” I had the opportunity to work with Manifesto during my time at GE Healthcare. I helped bring them into their first project at GE Healthcare and since then we have maintained a working relationship. One of the partners, Tim, has also become a friend over time.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

We asked Manifesto to develop a comprehensive strategy and event plan that would bring together our primary physicians from across the region and help cast the collective vision for where our healthcare company is headed. It included all elements of strategy (including key stakeholder interviews, multiple presentations to an executive team as well as planning and executing the event.

DELIVERABLES OVERVIEW: - Concept & strategy, account service and creative development within the estimated scope of hours of this agreement to shape the look, feel, experience & content for the event.

DISCOVERY - In-person interviews with key groups (serve line leaders, HR AMG groups, etc. within scope of hours, and within planning parameters) - Review of model community survey results - Identification of KPI’s agreed upon by both parties - Audience definition (Benchmark belief identification in strategic framework that informs event architecture, content and approach).

CONCEPTING Development of a strategic approach, event construct and run of show (choice of video, presentation style, featured speakers) solidified in a singular deck for internal key stakeholders.

INITIAL EVENT PLANNING Event design & ideation Content delivery ideation (choosing what videos, stories to be told, etc.) Venue prospecting, negotiating & booking Element bidding, pricing, etc.

EVENT PRODUCTION Asset production (videos, presentations, photography, collateral, etc.) Event production including but not limited to: Staging, A/V, Lighting Event execution & event staffing Event elements including but not limited to: Food & Beverage, Signage (CTA), Giveaway items

What was the team composition?

The Manifesto team was comprised of an account lead, a senior level strategist, some of the partner’s time, an account coordinator and designer at a later stage of the project.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Great attendance from our physicians, providers and Ascension leadership team. We spent the evening sharing "Stories of Transformation: Mission and Values in Action" and linking our strategic priorities with our priorities and design teams, and really helping with clinician engagement and well-being. Nice videos, storytelling, discussion and networking.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Very easy workflow with Manifesto! Weekly meetings followed a detailed project plan.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I really appreciated Manifesto's focus on employee engagement. They created a special, curated evening for primary care providers across our Milwaukee and Racine communities. This was planned especially for providers that needed to link to Ascension's strategy, growth, and mission to help the poor and under-served.

Are there any areas for improvement?

This was a brand new idea for our employed providers. We had a nice turnout, but there were some emergency factors beyond out control that kept some doctors in their clinics and unable to attend in person.

However, Manifesto produced a really nice summary video to provide a quick snapshot of the event, and we got nice feedback from folks who were sorry they missed it and looked forward to the next one.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the CMO of a modern payments fintech company.

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency?

We were engaged in a rebrand and needed help creating a cohesive brand framework inclusive of our narrative, creative platform, positioning and value proposition, tagline and core messaging statements. We engaged another agency to develop the rebrand look and feel, but it was clear we were at a crossroads and needed additional support from an agency currently not on our roster who specialized in strategy and storytelling.

What were your goals for this project?

Our primary goal was to wrestle through an internally-developed positioning and creative platform with an outside partner who could help us hone and articulate it, first for key stakeholders and then across potential platforms and messaging.

How did you select Manifesto Agency?

They came recommended by a former consultant who worked as an extension of our team.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Though the project shifted because we were moving really fast and were using a sprint-style work model under deadline, the scope of work we identified on the front end of the engagement is as follows:

• Phase 1: Insights & Discovery Review existing brand book, messaging, collateral and digital audit. Conduct virtual immersion session and discovery session with key stakeholders Provide light competitive analysis and review of existing customer research and brand messaging Review of existing research, messaging, values and conduct internal brand comms asset audit
• Phase 2: Create Brand Messaging Framework Develop brand messaging framework in a google slide (PDF format) that included brand narrative/manifesto, onlyness, value prop, brand statement, brand tone and tagline Also include a section that frames up third party (partner) communication

What was the team composition?

Because it was a very fast timeline and a sprint-style model we had identified on the front end of the engagement, I worked primarily with the two founders and a senior copywriter/ACD on their team. Strategists were involved in the project, but behind the scenes and largely on the competitive analysis portion.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The work together with Manifesto was like a genie in a bottle for a CMO. The concepts and narrative they presented helped us make a very quick leap forward and solidify our tagline and launch campaign “Go After It.”

The core ideas within their narratives helped reveal how we could turn into a lifestyle brand and that it had a role to play not on the 3rd page of your shopping cart, but the homepage of your life.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They got under the hood of our business very quickly. And though, with no major category experience, demonstrated their ability to not only keep pace but be a very effective sounding board. I had the opportunity to work directly with the partners, which candidly, may not be every client’s experience. It was very effective because we did this work in under four weeks.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Fast, smart, and damned nice people to work with.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Not that I can think of

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I was the CMO at an HR software company.

What challenge were you trying to address with Manifesto Agency?

We hired them because we needed to reset our positioning in the market with our audiences. Our portfolio of products had greatly expanded since we started, but the breadth of what we brought to the market wasn’t fully understood. 

We also needed to raise our awareness with new audiences, prospects, and accounts. Our challenge was that we weren’t known for what we do or our value proposition. We needed an agency that could help us uncover the true essence of who we were.

What was the scope of their involvement?

We started off by doing a corporate rebranding project. Manifesto Agency went through multiple phases of work with us. They first did R&D, both internally and in the market, to uncover the state of our positioning, perception, and awareness. 

Next, they helped us set up our corporate positioning, including the words that we used to describe ourselves. They set up a verbal brand strategy and developed a brand new visual brand identity. The team helped us uncover the tone that represented who we are as a company.

Based on the success we had with that, we extended our work with Manifesto Agency, and they became the partner who helped us rebuild and redesign our website. 

What is the team composition?

We initially spent a lot of time with Tim (Chief Storyteller & Managing Partner) and Dave (CEO & Managing Partner), and we later expanded to a team of two designers and an account manager. 

We also worked with a copywriter. When we had needs that went beyond their core competencies, they also contracted other resources to help us with video production and in-depth research.

How did you come to work with Manifesto Agency?

We did a lengthy RFP process with about 10 branding agencies, and we selected Manifesto Agency because our internal graphic designer had had a relationship with them in the past. 

How much have you invested with them?

We started the RFP process in March 2019, and we initiated the project in June 2019. The project technically wrapped up in March 2020, but we also extended their scope of work to include brand activation.

I’m no longer at the company, but I believe the organization is still working with Manifesto Agency.

What is the status of this engagement?

In total, we ended up spending about $500,000.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

We were excited about buying into the new brand strategy that represented who we were as a company. When we launched it, we got a tremendous reaction from our employees and executives. Our employees are our brand ambassadors, and they were very excited about the work. 

Additionally, we launched a new website based on branding, and Manifesto Agency was a big part of that. There were a lot of improved metrics related to our website performance, including viewership and time spent on the website. 

How did Manifesto Agency perform from a project management standpoint?

Manifesto Agency did an excellent job. It was a long and complicated project. They did a great job of keeping us on track, and we hit every milestone. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

Initially, the reason we selected them was that we had a strong connection culture-wise in terms of their purpose and mission in looking at branding as a way to articulate the true essence of a company. That authentic approach aligned with what we wanted to do.

In addition, Tim and Dave were incredibly strategic. They worked with our executive team in a way that built a lot of trust. Also, what I appreciated was Manifesto Agency’s flexibility and commitment to getting it right, especially because there are a lot of cycles in the creative process.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They’re a smaller agency. They did everything right, but I would’ve loved to have worked with Manifesto Agency directly on more parts of the project. That said, for this project, they were everything that we needed. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They know what they’re doing, so trust their methodology and approach. Treat the relationship as a partnership and allow them into your company.

Please describe your company and your position there.

For what projects/services did your company hire Manifesto Agency?

We were looking for a brand agency to help Intel launch a global brand refresh campaign for our internal employees. The challenge is that our employees don’t connect their work every day to the macro experience and global impact that Intel is making.

The opportunity is how to engage and empower employees to be powerful ambassadors and influencers for the brand.

What was the team composition?

Manifesto engaged a dynamic team of 5-6 employees to deliver on this brand campaign. As the scope of the global reach increased, Manifesto brought on additional contractors to help us scale.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The impact these campaigns had for our Intel employees exceeded expectations. Metrics and impact over 30,000 employees attended the brand campaign activation "Let The Inside Out" at site events in 15 countries and 28 campuses and the "Moore's Law" anniversary activation in 24 countries and 29 campuses.

Other quantifiable outcomes were:

• Average of 27 minutes with hands-on demos
• 72% of visitors rate the value as “extremely valuable” in a post-survey
• 93% of attendees agreed with the statement that “Intel Makes Amazing Experiences Possible”

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Manifesto Agency was an excellent thought-partner in the creation and activation of this brand campaign. They came to the table with bold, innovative ideas.

They internalized Intel's feedback and delivered best-in-class solutions to close the gaps. The Manifesto team was accessible, agile, and delivered excellent results.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The Manifesto Agency has unique expertise in helping companies transform brand beliefs into authentic behavior through the power of culturally disruptive ideas. They understand the internal employee audience better than any other agency I've engaged in.

They quickly learned Intel's values, culture, and norms to deliver a solution that fit our company's needs. They excelled at creating powerful storytelling platforms, designed to inspire, disrupt, and create lasting impact. Their ability to create high-touch experiences rooted in the core of what the Intel brand stands for was amazing.

Are there any areas for improvement?

This campaign had a very aggressive timeline and a massive global reach. While it's always possible to hit milestones quicker, Intel was impressed by Manifesto's ability to deliver an exceptional brand campaign against the timeline.
