We love bold clients. Case in point: CSHQA

Posted & filed under Case Studies, Confab, New Work.

Idaho’s oldest continually operating architecture firm was in desperate need of a new look. CSHQA, founded in 1889 by William Campbell (the “C” in CSHQA), is responsible for many of Idaho’s most iconic buildings. But its website was not living up to the firm’s stellar reputation and did not reflect the company’s nationwide growth and…

Meet the Intern

Posted & filed under Confab, News.

We’ve never had an intern before. Not that we have anything against them — honestly, it just never really occurred to us to hire one! Not until, that is, Glenna Rose Hanson called our office and said, “How about I be your guinea pig intern? It will be great!“ How could we pass up an…

What ‘Whip/Nae Nae’ taught us about social media monitoring

Posted & filed under Confab, Technology.

We’re big fans of “Whip/Nae Nae” around here (and not just because it’s an earworm). It’s because — crazy as it sounds — it had a big part in showing us the power of social media monitoring. See, our clients aren’t new to social media. Nearly everyone has some presence these days, either on Twitter,…

It’s a launch!

Posted & filed under Confab, New Work.

After 5+ years, we finally got around to redesigning our website. This is definite cause for celebration around the Carew Co office, as our old site was in disarray for years. We have updated the site to share the latest and greatest of work, which you may now view in our Work section. We have…

College just got real.

Posted & filed under Boise, New Work, News, Show and Tell.

At Carew Co., we had been anxiously awaiting the chance to push this campaign further and knew this was our opportunity. We’ve had an amazing partnership with the marketing team for many years and enjoy any opportunity to “mind meld” with our friends at CWI. As an extension of the marketing team, we bring ideas…

Giving to Gold

Posted & filed under Boise, Community, Confab.

As an agency, we skip the elaborate holiday cards, tins of cookies, and gifts of fruitcake. We prefer to honor the strong client relationships we’ve built by giving back to our community and helping a non-profit organization. Every year since we opened our doors for business, we’ve awarded a $1,000 cash donation to a non-profit…
