"While I'm proud of a lot of work this year, I'd like to highlight something just as important: Relationships.

I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for the relationships I've nurtured over the last nine years, and I'm proud of that.

To top that, I'm proud of the relationships that flourished into long-lasting friendships. You know who you are, and some are pictured below!😉"

"A client I am extremely proud to have worked with in 2024 is Know Honesty.

Along with the Bloom team, I worked closely with Grace Gavin and Ken Bogard on a marketing plan for the launch of their book “Know Honesty.”

This powerful book aims to help people become masterful communicators in both their personal and professional lives by eliminating the divide, breaking down walls, and utilizing open and honest communication.

Working alongside them this year not only allowed me to help spread the message of openness and honesty but also allowed me to enhance my communication skills.

Congratulations on a successful 2024, Know Honesty!"

"The accomplishment I'm most proud of this year is having the opportunity to work with the incredible non-profit, MAP International. Their mission to provide life-saving medicine to those in need around the world means so much to me, and by helping to spread their message, I feel like I’m contributing to a cause that truly makes a difference.

One of my favorite projects was the work we did in December, promoting their 2024 Matching Gift Campaign. It was incredibly rewarding to be part of an initiative that doubles the impact of every donation.

I’m honored to contribute to such important work."

- Alayna Cook, Social Media Specialist

Jeff attended Grand Rapids Chamber's Year-End Celebration last night at the Grand Rapids Art Museum.

"I attended this event last year and really enjoyed it. This year's didn't disappoint. It’s a great place to connect with other business professionals in a creative environment," Jeff said.

There's much to celebrate as we close 2024!

Our team gifted 100 custom teddy bears with glasses to the ophthalmology clinic at Corewell Health Helen DeVos Children's Hospital yesterday.

This end-of-year gift honors our tiniest Bloom team member, Roy (Kirsten and Jeff's son). He has been a patient there since he was 3 days old.

Sewing the glasses on these bears has been a labor of love, and we hope they bring comfort to kids receiving their first pair of glasses.🤓❤️🧸

We appreciate the Corewell Health Foundation West Michigan for making the donation process effortless and straightforward.

You don't know if new content will perform well unless you test it. Sometimes, the thought of testing content can create doubt in your mind.

This brings us to share one of Wicked's movie posters:

▶︎Elphaba is the doubt.
▶︎Glinda is the encouragement.

The moral of this post is to test new content. You never know how it'll perform unless you try.

Our donation for Helen DeVos Children's Hospital is ready to go! Sewing the glasses on these bears has been a labor of love. We can’t wait to drop them off next week!❤️🧸🤓

We partnered with Priority Health this year to help launch Member Mentions. It has been a labor of love, and we officially went live last month!

Member Mentions is a social media series highlighting authentic and relatable member testimonials to increase engagement and connection.

We have members from all walks of life and very different yet heartwarming stories. We're excited for everyone to read them.

We kicked this series off with Chelsee Stark's story (below)!

Chelsee Stark, 37, was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis at age 6. She has suffered from severe and permanent joint damage and chronic pain for more than 30 years, leaving her permanently disabled.

As a very young child, Chelsee’s doctors often told her she’d never walk again. “With my determination and strength to try to live a normal life paired with support from loved ones and access to great health insurance through Priority Health, I have overcome an incredible amount of challenges,” Chelsee said.

“Priority Health has an amazing care management team. These workers fill such a huge role in the completion of a successful patient experience.”

Chelsee has defied medical limitations and expectations. Although she still lives with the damage of the disease and always will, “I live a healthy and happy life that I am grateful for, that I was told I could not have. I could not have done this without Priority Health by my side.”

She has been a Priority Health member for 18 years and counting.

We ghostwrite for executives on LinkedIn just like someone would help ghostwrite a memoir.

How do we do this?

Our versatile team works hard to understand their:

And more.

This allows us to write on their behalf, making it seem as if they wrote their own LinkedIn content without all the hassle.

Contact us at https://www.bloomsocialbiz.com/ if you'd like us to ghostwrite your LinkedIn content! We're happy to supply references.

Our team was happy to support Independent Bank's 9th annual Be The Difference Day yesterday! Each year, they close all bank locations on Indigenous Peoples' Day for a day of service.

Their team members volunteered at 80 community organizations across the state and donated over $160,000 this year.

We traveled across West Michigan to take photos at several volunteer locations to get the team in action. It's amazing to see the excitement in everyone.

We love seeing impact!

We wanted to help the Kids' Food Basket reach their goal of 100,000 decorated bags during the month of October, so the Bloom girls took the morning to have some fun and give back.

Sack Suppers are nutritious, ready-to-eat evening meals delivered right to a child’s school or distribution site. These meals ensure children have access to the healthy food they need to thrive. We can take this one step further through bag decorating, adding a colorful reminder that the community cares.

We hope our decorated bags bring smiles to kids. 😊
