Our Story.
The Cardinal team is connected by our shared experience in higher education and a passion for storytelling. We found that personal stories were the key to connecting people across industries and that it could be used to make a real impact in the world.
Many organizations have powerful stories to tell, but often struggled to convey them effectively. Therefore, Cardinal Creative was born to help organizations educate communities, advocate for growth, and appreciate individuals.
Our team comprises experts in marketing strategy, multimedia production, graphic design, media management, and copywriting. We work tirelessly to deliver exceptional results for our clients and have been able to help our clients reach new audiences and achieve their goals.
Our clients work within various industries, including educational institutions, non-profit organizations, healthcare, and technology. We’ve been able to help these organizations tell their stories in ways that are both engaging and impactful.
“OUR STORY IS ABOUT THEIR STORIES.”
The Cardinal story began when like-minded creatives connected at West Virginia University’s Alumni Association. It was there we truly recognized the importance of personalized storytelling in marketing strategy.
