It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life
that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.
Serve and thou shall be served.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
BrandMill serves the communities where it does business in a Servant Leadership fashion. For example, in addition to monetary contributions, BrandMill donates up to 10% of its hours (e.g., no fees and/or reduced fees) to help not-for-profit organizations fulfill their mission. Why? Because we’re so blessed, we’re gifted marketing communications professionals and grateful. It’s good business. It’s the right thing to do. And, if not us…who then?
To whom much is given, much is required.
Luke 12:48
I heard the voice of the Lord saying,
Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?
Then said I, Here am I; send me.
Isaiah 6:8–13
