You just want it done, and we just want to do it.
Your on-call, dedicated, all-in-one communications manager, coordinator, designer, writer and assistant.
How may we be of service?
You have communications work you need to get done yesterday. But you may not have an in-house communications team, or the budget to afford a large agency with big overhead and an army of staff with client-billing quotas.
That’s where we come in. We’re Twist Design & Communications: your on-call, dedicated, all-in-one communications manager, coordinator, designer, writer and assistant.
“We try harder.” We’re a small, full-service agency with the skills and expertise to help you on an hourly, per-project, or retainer-based basis. Our size allows us to be nimble and provide a personal touch. We know you want to get your project done to spec, budget, and on time, and we make it happen.
The What
Our goal is to work with you closely to understand your organization’s vision and objectives, so that we can help your marketing, communications, and design projects come to life – just as you would with an internal communications department. We’ll know your name. You’ll know ours. Work is better that way.
When it’s a big project with a tight deadline, we have a stable of professional web developers, graphic designers, translators, video producers, printers and photographers ready to help out. They’re pretty great too, and that’s why we work with them.

- Focus on you
- Manage your products and media
- Build brand awareness
- Find and direct vendors (photographers, videographers, programmers)
- Brainstorm and execute new ideas
- Build platforms
- Communicate internally (to staff) and externally (to your audiences)
- Manage your budget
- Set the strategy, plan the attack, and execute
The little picture. We do:
- Marketing and communications strategy planning and reporting
- Internal and external communications (writing, editing and proofreading)
- Research
- Proposal writing and management

- Graphic and promotional design

You just want it done, and we just want to do it.
Together, we have over 40 years of experience in marketing and communications in a variety of industries (oil and gas, finance and insurance, construction, trucking, software, human resources, fabrication, tourism, food, artists, and publications).
Our experience includes: researcher, journalist, communications manager, communication/office manager, entertainment editor, college instructor, podcast host, marketing and graphic design specialist, marketing assistant, assistant graphic designer, comedy writer, stand-up comic, and website and online designer, developer, and maintenance.
We’ve learned our skills from starting at the bottom and working our way up. We understand that to be in this innovative industry, you can never stop learning or asking questions. We are curious about the news, technology, new innovations, and life itself.
We enjoy being creative and coming up with exceptional ideas. We take the time to listen and understand your objectives and produce the best solutions to meet your deadlines and budgets.
