By Sedora Tantraphol Our distributed team works because of the communications platforms that keep us (and our clients) feeling connected. For day-to-day communications and tasks, we love Slack. For team-building, we do weekly team meeting video calls using appear.in. It’s also a cost-effective way to hold frequent meetings with clients. We’ve tried a lot of video […]
1) New Office Space This past spring, we moved into our new headquarters at the Riverfront Business Center in #LoveLansing! Since then, we’ve done our best to transform the office into a fun, productive space that reflects our values.

3) Collaborations We had a blast collaborating with change makers on a range of fun projects this year, including branding, communications, social media, grants, and website builds, to name a few. From creating logos and brochures to launching social media profiles and publishing articles, we are honored to support the storytelling and strategy of innovative clients […]

We love using Think Space as a venue because it’s spacious, has fun musical instruments and games, and has both traditional and informal meeting spaces.

7) Travel Everyone on #TeamMoonsail loves to travel. Whether it’s a day trip or multi-week vacation, we love to travel as a way to practice self-care, to spark our creativity, and to experience more of the world. And we love to share the beautiful and innovative places and things across our social media channels. In 2016, […]
8) Social Media Photo Booth As part of our ribbon-cutting celebration for Moonsail North’s new HQ, we turned our office into one big social media photo booth for guests to use during the reception. We hand-made props to make guests look like a real-life Snapchat filter or emoji to pay homage to the central role of […]

We believe that success is best experienced when shared, so since our launch, we’ve made it a point to donate to causes that resonate with our team members. From birthday donations to giving days and annual fundraisers, we love supporting organizations doing good […]
