Recruiting exceptional college-aged staff has been one of Pine Cove’s strengths and the challenge was how to keep this up as the Pine Cove Ministry continues to grow.
First, we recognized that Pine Cove sounded like every other “summer job” opportunity out there to college students, promising the “best summer ever”. We also heard that college students are most anxious about their future careers. And finally, there were more than 13,000 alumni telling us that the best thing they ever did to prepare them for their careers working at Pine Cove.
The innovative Selfless Adventure approach referred to the holistic, gospel-centered transformation that develops summer counselors spiritually, personally, and professionally, for a lifetime.
Regarded as one of the premier alumni organizations in the country, the Association of Former Students wanted to help increase the visibility and perception of the organization among Former Students. We conducted focus groups around the state of Texas and conducted surveys with Former Students to understand their unique perspective.
Their market was divided into four distinct groups, all with unique backgrounds, needs and motivations for involvement. The groups were unified in purpose with a new vision, “The Aggie Network”. In addition, new involvement programs were implemented for current students and recent graduates to cement their current and future involvement.

It’s first down and $32 million to go, and the 12th Man Foundation has the ball for the North End Zone expansion project at Texas A&M’s famous Kyle Field. After spending three years in the design and development of the project, the 12th Man Foundation and Athletic Department needed a strategic marketing approach for this major league project.
After touring stadiums all over the country and interviewing thousands of football fans, our team made the strategic recommendation to accelerate the existing sales kickoff date by one year and elevate seat pricing by 25%. By creating the name and brand identity for “The Zone,” followed by an initial advertising campaign and sales effort, the program exceeded the original projections well past the 5-year plan in just 8 weeks.
As the primary supplier of blood and tissue in Central Texas, compensation is received from customers for its day-to-day operations. Those operations include the collection, processing, testing, storage, and delivery services that are required to maintain a safe blood and tissue supply.
However, the cost of blood and tissue goes far beyond the day-to-day operations. Your financial contribution will help fund community outreach and capital projects that are essential to assure that needed blood and tissue are available.
Life is in your hands. Invest in our community.

My absolute best days are when we’re able to help a client see their business differently. It’s usually at this point when things begin to take off and the effectiveness of what we can do for them begins to be realized both internally and externally in a very powerful way.
don’t get too high on the highs and too low on the lows. This advice was from my high school basketball coach.
I think it would be so cool to be able to fly. The different vantage points would be amazing and the ability to get places quickly would be awesome.
As a young fella, I probably wanted to be the usual things like a policeman, fireman, etc. But from high school on, I have always wanted to own my own business.
