Potassium sulfate also known as sulfate of potash or SOP is a premium fertilizer created at Great Salt Lake by Compass Minerals. Using an environmentally friendly solar evaporation process they've been providing SOP to growers of specialty crops like fruits, vegetables, tree nuts, potatoes and more for over 40 years.
In 2014, we repositioned SOP by giving it a new name and a brand that reflected the quality it delivers. Protassium+ is premium sulfate of potash that is used by growers who understand that high quality inputs yield high quality crops. The campaign honored these growers with the statement "Because you believe in bringing more to the table."
In addition to a new logo, website and collateral, the campaign was featured in digital and traditional media, at tradeshows and on social media. At the 2014 Region 2 Best of NAMA Awards show, first place honors were received for print advertising (spreads, series and spreads, single) as well as a merit award (single page).

One of the biggest challenges County Commissioners face is ensuring safe driving conditions on their gravel roads in an environment where budgets are getting tighter and tighter.
The Gravel Roads Academy is an initiative launched to help educate this audience about proper gravel roads maintenance practices while also explaining how road stabilization products like DustGard play a key role in this effort.
Our role was to establish a brand for the GRA that emphasized the importance of this knowledge, capture the attention of road maintenance decision makers and provide a platform for selling DustGard.

Getting the most out of every acre is the primary focus of most wheat, corn and sorghum farmers throughout the midwest. But with so many inputs to manage, chloride (a micronutrient) is considered a low priority input.
With this being the case, we built the Chlori-Mag brand to reinforce the potential yield that farmers might be missing out on if they don't correct a deficiency.
In addition to the development of a new logo, fully responsive website and sales collateral, a digital sales app that featured an ROI calculator was developed to create an eye-opening sales engagement.
When it comes to deicing products, most contractors want one thing – performance. With this central focus, we rebranded the entire commercial line of packaged deicing products for Compass Minerals.
Realizing there was significant brand equity in their best-selling product, IceAway, we recommended it become the over-arching name that unified the entire line. This allowed the higher performing products in the line like IceAway Turbo and IceAway Turbo Plus to leverage this equity while emphasizing their unique attributes.
As a result, the IceAway line is quickly becoming known as a go-to brand for top-tier deicing contractors.
