Alongside this, we strengthened their competitive bidding strategy, equipping EPI with enhanced tools and approaches to confidently compete and succeed in bids. This dual strategy, coupled with improved operational efficiencies and refined client engagement, was instrumental in elevating EPI's brand. It enabled them to command a stronger market presence, opening doors to new opportunities and significant growth, and illustrating the success of a balanced, client-focused strategy.

He’s scooched down low to get just the right eye-line for Bill on the monitors. Eye-line is critical when building trust. Note we do NOT use tele-prompters. Careful preinterviews are done ahead of time and then we build a strategy and questions to ask that generate candid responses that are genuine and evoke emotion instead of distracting the viewer and coming across as fake.
We shot a variety of properties over 2.5 days, including finished properties, ones at various stages of construction, and several re-enactment scenes of EPI’s principals and staff meeting architects and owners on job sites. We also shot innovative footage using racing drones. This provided unique POV shots - winding through rebar, flying through and around walls and barriers, over and around crews woking and more. This provided a variety of content for the film, the website and to use for social media marketing.
With more and more owners and architects being female, we made sure that we included them as decision makers in the film. EPI has four partners who are contractors, and all are men, ranging from late 40’s to late 60’s. With so many younger, and many times female decision makers today, we made a strategic move to include younger, and in many cases female decision makers like owners and architects in the film.
As part of the new rebrand and website, we made sure that each of their key employees had professional, consistent headshots. This was important for the website, but also for use on Linkedin, in email signatures and all marketing materials. This further elevates the brand across all media.
By shooting all headshots in the office, with a crew that included hair and make up, we were able to work with the staff to make them feel and look their best, get the best quality photos possible and allow instant previews so they could choose their favorite immediately before we moved to the next employee. This sped up the workflow, allowed us to complete and deploy the website quickly and made everyone happy. With some minor retouching we implemented them and send copies to everyone so they can include them in their social profiles for a professional company-wide image.
