Pros
Having worked for a number of agencies in Grand Rapids, I can confidently say that Blue Flame Thinking is the full package. Their motto “Find Your Better” isn’t just some feel-good marketing fluff, they truly apply this practice to all things and it shines through their quality of talent, projects and client partnerships.
The team is full of passionate, loyal, masters of their craft that never fail to go above and beyond for clients. I believe all of their success is attributed to great leadership; Josh Stauffer (CEO) is the smartest, most genuine person I’ve ever met, and to watch the agency grow under his leadership has been so rewarding.
Flexibility is a huge perk - whether you’re sick, have kids with complicated schedules or need to work remotely for various reasons, BFT works with you and is incredibly generous in finding a solution that works for everyone.
If you are someone looking for employment or a business looking for a new agency to partner with, do yourself a favor and take a chance with these guys. You won’t regret it.
Cons
Since culture is such a huge (amazing) part of the agency, a wrong-fit hire really rocks the boat and creates chaos. My hope is that BFT can identify this early on and take action before it causes too much stress on the team.
