Meet Doorway Creative
We’re a small team of solution seekers, creators, and experience makers dedicated to creating kinder, healthier, and more equitable worlds. We’re here to affect change on a greater scale by partnering with organizations on a similar mission.
Vision
We envision a world that uplifts all people and celebrates our connections. One where our humanity is enriched by our differences. And we live in harmony with each other and the world around us.
To empower companies that are creating change for the greater good of humanity.
Values
Our values are an important part of who we are. We use them to guide our choices, actions, culture, and how we show up in this world. They serve as a great glimpse into what it’s like to work with us.
Authenticity
We know that the work we do is only a piece of who we are. We embrace showing up as our whole selves. We strive to align our words and actions at all times.
How this shows up in our work:
We only take on projects from companies with aligned values. That means we’re all working towards a common vision, which allows us to do our best work. Also, we’ll often wear t-shirts to our Zoom meetings and you may hear our dogs in the background.
Balance
We’re big believers in setting healthy boundaries so we can enjoy balanced lives and give the best of ourselves in all areas.
How this shows up in our work:
We build reasonable project timelines. We clearly communicate where we are in the process and what steps are next. And we work really hard to stick to deadlines because we know that delays affect everyone’s schedules.
Collaboration
We create spaces that foster (and processes that support) collaboration. Because we know outcomes are better when we work together.
How this shows up in our work:
We’re here to bring your experience, insights, and vision to life. We won’t pretend like we have all the answers. But we will share some effective approaches to help us create the best outcomes together.
Equity
We recognize that the world isn’t fair for everyone. But we know it should be. And we believe it can be. That’s why we work every day to build a more equitable world.
How this shows up in our work:
We use inclusive language and accessible design and development principles. And we channel part of our revenue to nonprofits that are working to build more equitable worlds (more on that below).
Growth
Every day is an opportunity to grow. We seek to create growth from every experience. We welcome the opportunity to turn challenges into solutions.
How this shows up in our work:
Your growth goals will be our guide. We’ll lean into conflict to generate new ideas. We’ll treat every encounter with your team as an opportunity for everyone to grow. And we expect we’ll all be changed by the process of working together.
Meet Our Co-Creators
Triniti and Tory met while at another agency that worked with a lot of cannabis and CBD brands, sustainable energy companies, and nonprofits.
After partnering on a few projects, they found they held similar world views and were equally passionate about making the world a kinder and more just place.
Combine this with the fact that their professional experiences are a perfect complement to each other, bringing together all the skills needed to serve clients and grow an agency. It was a partnership meant to be.
“Triniti and Tory were just so warm. They love this work. And it’s really easy to see and it’s easy to feel comfortable working with people who honestly love what they do.
It’s a different feeling than what you would expect from marketing firms.”
~Dana Fleetham, Brave
