As someone who has, in one way or another, made a living as a writer, I admit to being something of a critic when it comes to content and copywriting. But you don’t have to be a professional scribe to understand how important writing has become to our businesses. And we’re not referring to catchy advertising slogans here. We’re talking about the everyday writing that comes from your company, from your website copy to your press releases to your email subject lines to your collateral.Writing for Enterpreneur, author Susan Gunelius, CEO of marketing/branding firm KeySplash Creative, points to five writing habits that can sabotage your effort to actually get your message heard and understood.”Words carry a lot of weight, and you need to use them wisely,” Gunelius says. “There are a number of theories you can learn and tools you can use to write better marketing messages.”
We love writing perfect taglines. Back when we established Cronin Creative, we put a lot of thought into crafting one for ourselves, to find that phrase that would neatly sum us up style-wise while pointing to our company’s authentic differentiator.We landed on “Clarity By Design,” and the tagline has not only served us well, it has grown in relevance in recent years, as the marketplace has become more and more cluttered and noisy. In fact, clarity, along with impactful design, has never been more important to your company, to your brand, or to the world we live in.”Design is needed to make sense of information overload,” says author, designer and former Rhode Island School of Design President John Maeda.

“When it was time to do our television show, Karen Cronin and I had already done a lot of CD packaging and books and side projects together, so I knew that the set for the TV show was just a matter of turning the wheel in yet one more direction. We had one conversation, and I knew Cronin Creative had it covered. I’m spoiled.” – Marty Stuart

We jumped at the chance to design the commemorative book for Alan Shuptrine: Appalachian Watercolors of the Serpentine Chain, an exhibition currently on view at the Tennessee State Museum. Shuptrine's nationally renowned watercolors and handcrafted frames pay tribute to the land and people found along the Appalachian Trail. Be sure to check out this amazing exhibit (and while you're there, pick up a copy of the Cronin Creative-designed book!)
