We’re about a lot of things. Staying small is one of them. We believe that being big doesn’t translate to being good. In fact, it usually means you’re slow and clunky. We’re for staying true to our roots. Ours run deep in midwest soil. And we have the blue-collar work ethic to prove it. We’re family style. At a restaurant, it means we get a taste of everything. In the office, it means tapping the expertise of multiple disciplines on every project. And speaking of families we’re about the ones we have at home as well. And we support them by partnering with the right clients, pushing ourselves to a premium standard, and having fun along the way. As a whole, we stand for a lot. See what each individual partner is all about below.
Strategy
Josh is our version of “The Wolf.” In the movie Pulp Fiction, “The Wolf” comes in when things are coming unglued. He calmly and cooly connects the dots and holds things together. That’s Josh. As the Director of Digital Strategy at Barefoot, he cultivated an incredibly strong bond with the MillerCoor’s Mickey’s Fine Malt Liquor brand – enabling his team to create several successful and award-winning campaigns. Today he uses his clear vision and strategic thinking to connect with clients and to assure that our work connects with right audience.
Web Development, Strategy
Bobby is the best dressed of all of us – which may not be saying much. But he’s also the baddest coder this side of the Mississippi. And that’s saying a lot. His 12-year career includes being the lead designer of all online media for Valvoline while at Coactive, two years of e-commerce experience at Frontgate and a stint as the Senior Web Developer in charge of technical strategy while at Barefoot BBDO. Today, whether it’s an online store or a mashup of social media, his creative code-slinging allows us to say, “we can do that,” and look good doing it.
Writing
Kevin is the most rugged and handsome of all the Ample partners. And he’s not just saying that because he’s writing this site. In fact, he feels a little strange about writing in third person. Anyway, “he” has written for print, television, radio and online media. And has spun his verbal skills for companies like Del Monte, Procter and Gamble and Miller Brewing Company. Today, as the copywriting Ample partner, he leverages his linguistic skills to speak to the masses, be they college-age boozers or professors looking for online textbooks.
Design
Adam is the tallest of the Ample partners. And although his deep-seeded love for Rush might suggest otherwise, he possesses a shockingly versatile artistic vision. His simple and elegant design skills have played out in every conceivable medium. As a Senior Designer at Barefoot BBDO, he led online redesigns for global brands like Swiffer and Febreze. Today, as an Ample partner, he flexes his prowess by spiking online traffic and stopping highway traffic.
Design
Rob refuses the title of guru despite evidence to the contrary. His hiring at HyperQuake began a pilgrimage of designers that quickly built the little shop to prominence. Imparting his knowledge as an Associate Creative Director at Barefoot BBDO, he led the Miller Brewing Company creative team–developing the look tone and feel for the award winning Mickey’s Malt Liqour online media. Today he miraculously walks the line between designer and developer, leads by example and is growing an impressive beard. If that’s not a guru, what is?
