Member Spotlight: treetree

Each week, the Columbus Chamber will spotlight one of our member businesses, their presence in the Columbus Region, what they do and how they’ve involved at the Chamber. To submit your member business for a member spotlight contact the Chamber's marketing department.

About treetree: two former agency VPs (Becca Thompson and Tiffany Wise) and a small army of outside specialists offering brand strategy, consumer research, branding, campaign development and graphic design. We personally work with all of our clients so they get access to the principals and the brains without paying for the overhead or some fancy schmancy office space. We help authentic brands tell meaningful stories – their stories. We believe authenticity is the key to building strong brands.

Why We’re Chamber Members (or what we’re involved in at the Chamber)
We love being engaged in the community and supporting the organizations and groups that help put Columbus on the map and reinforce our city’s economic development. We like to be a part of momentum and movement and have been impressed with the staff and professionalism of the organization as well as the breadth of offerings for members.

Fun Facts about Our agency:
One of the first questions we usually get is about our name, naturally, as most companies are not named after houseplants. We named our company after the-little-tree-that-could. Becca received a bonsai tree as a gift and    named it "treetree." Becca is the daughter of two horticulturists and can't keep any plants alive. Not even treetree. He died, briefly. Then, the very same day we decided to start a company, he came back to life. We took it as a sign that we were doing the right thing.

Another fun fact is that we actually have part of our company logo tattooed on each of our wrists. They are permanent. Like treetree.
