As a branding and marketing agency, we stress every detail that goes into our work including using proper grammar.

At BrandTuitive, we firmly believe that your career is 100% your responsibility – something we try to instill in everyone on our team from interns to managers. Not only does this mean it is your job to work hard for the opportunities you want, but it also means that the main person responsible for your professional development is you. One of our core values is to foster unprecedented development of people, which is why we take training very seriously and strive to give our employees the push they need to continue to take responsibility for their career path.

Landing the interview for any job is a thrilling experience. However, the interview itself can be more stressful than exciting. Getting a new job can unlock countless opportunities, but the first step is nailing the interview. BrandTuitive is here to help take some of the stress out of the process and offer some tips to help you put your best foot forward.

As a branding and marketing agency, we know that proper grammar is crucial; although it can sometimes be tricky. Often, it’s the simple things that can be the most difficult.  A very common grammar mistake that we have noticed is made over and over involves a very tiny word: “its.” While it may not seem like a big deal, misusing an apostrophe can drastically change the meaning of a sentence.

At BrandTuitive, we strive to foster unprecedented growth and development in people. We are very excited to post a blog written by Emma, one of our interns, where she discusses what she has learned during her time here and how it has helped her as a young professional. Read on to learn firsthand how valuable an internship can really be. 

As a marketing agency, we write a lot of copy, so we end up talking a lot about grammar. As a result, we’ve got a lot of agency sayings on the topic.

It’s important to us at BrandTuitive to provide an environment of growth. We thought we’d check in with last summer’s Brand Marketing Intern to see what, if any, impact she felt her experience with BrandTuitive is having on her final year of college. Here’s an excerpt of that conversation.

This one is for our in-house grammarian who gets exceptionally passionate when she hears the incorrect phrase “graduated college.”

As our summer intern returns to school for her senior year and will be graduating (we expect) in May, it seems an apropos time to address this common grammar mistake.

We’ve written before in our blog about a special part of the BrandTuitive culture called Shadow Day. Last week we hosted two more unsuspecting marketing mogul hopefuls.

Ah, the summer intern. We all think we want one. Many of us have a Movie in the Mind℠ about all the work they’re going to take off our plate.

This blog post focuses on some best practices (according to BrandTuitive) to maximize the summer intern experience…for you…and for them.

Today’s Grammar Matters blog focuses on when to use “complimentary” versus “complementary.”

With an office in the middle of New York City, we are surrounded by agency team members, clients and neighbors for whom English is not their first language. They are often amused by American idioms and ask about their origins… we often don’t know.

There is so much to say about the contributions Peter Cooper made to engineering, politics, education and humanity in general. His accomplishments arguably equal those of ten lifetimes. This blog is dedicated to his contribution to art.

It amazes us every time we find advertising with simple grammar errors. It usually triggers a saying we’re fond of around the agency, “Grammar is not an opinion.” Today’s Grammar Matters blog focuses on plural possessive.

We are fortunate to host a guest blog from communication expert Paul Dominguez. His post challenges us all to take a closer look at our communication habits. Read to learn three habits that are sure to improve your effectiveness in communicating with others.

We find that many people have a desire to give back and do good in the world but often just don’t know where to start.

We’re excited to post our second guest blog entry. Becky, a recent college graduate, wanted to shadow NYC advertising agencies to learn more about the marketing world. During her visit with BrandTuitive she crafted this blog post about facing the fears of life after graduation head on. We like her advice to graduates.
