Rule 29
Rule29 is a group of creative nutballs whom we’ve been fortunate enough to know for the past 5 years. I’d recommend Rule29 to anyone as a strategic design firm that that truly makes creative matter. Justin Ahrens was instrumental in the journey of HatHead and is just an awesome person to know. The original HatHead logo and overall brand feel came from the creative brain of Rule29. I will always have these guys’ back. Thanks Rule29 – you guys kick ass.

College Hunks Hauling Junk
If you haven’t heard of these guys yet – you will. Omar and the guys at College Hunks Hauling Junk are proving that no matter what business you are in, there’s room for innovation and great thinkers. They’ve taking the business of junk hauling and given it personality and a fun, creative brand. Omar was looking for branding, outside the box concepts for some CHHJ headwear. This alone was a big alert to us that we had a group of people who thought in a way we loved. They’ve launched College Foxes Packing Boxes and have numerous creative projects on their radar.
We’re proud to be a part of the ride and think you should get to know these guys too. If you are an entrepreneur looking to get into a franchise on the ground level OR if you are a business or individual who can benefit from the services College Hunks Hauling Junk or College Foxes Packing Boxes deliver then I recommend you visit them at www.1800junkusa.com or calling 1.800.586.5872
GRASSHOPPER
Another group of thinking entrepreneurs. We connected with these guys when they put on entrepreneur mixers in Chicago. It was a unique way to get in front of their audience and it caught our attention. Most recently you can see these guys putting out some of the best viral videos and stepping outside the box with marketing initiatives that honestly piss us off because we didn’t think of it first (see their chocolate grasshopper initiative here).

BEER MAGAZINE
Derek Buono is crazy and we love it. Look – it’s the best damn magazine about Beer out there. Part entertainment, part educational, part chicks in bikinis – Beer Magazine is making it’s mark on an industry that tends to look down on this type of take on the market. One thing cannot be argued: they are introducing an entirely new group of beer enthusiasts to the best microbrews in the country. We call these guys trailblazers for having the balls to step up and put out a magazine that is anything but “inside the box” in their industry.

Cheers Guys – keep up the great work.
GoodSpark
We love GoodSpark for the smart, intelligent, simple design. Internally we think of Lauren’s methods of thinking as simply “effective” without complicating things with unnecessary hoopla. She is behind this phase of the HatHead website and we lean on Lauren and her team for many marketing programs we roll out throughout the year.
Anyone looking for some great web work should give GoodSpark a good look. Beyond the talent, we’ll vouch for GoodSpark as an honest, fair and creative shop that is easy to work with and amazingly responsive. We Love you GoodSpark!
