Hile Creative has made its share of business-plan pivots in its 29 years, making the switch from a design firm to an advertising agency, among others.
Now the Ann Arbor-based company rebranded itself again earlier this year, focusing on its strengths in branding and web development. It has also hired three people over the last year, expanding its team to 11 employees.
“I’m really happy to have a team now that I feel is the best we have had in our 29 years,” says Dave Hile, founder & president of
Hile Creative.
Some parts of Hile Creative are the same. It still does a lot of work with toy companies and local start-ups working with
Ann Arbor SPARK. And some larger local bio-tech companies such as
Esperion Therapeutics and
Aastrom Biosciences are among its clientele. The firm also works with the University of Michigan.
“We love having an eclectic client base,” Hile says.
