Team Trust was founded on the idea of creating human understanding and building trust. Too often, people are misunderstood, ignored and hurt because of a lack of understanding and trust. Considering our founder, Ryan Wilson, has a disability, we know this feeling all too well. Many of Ryan’s closest friends have endured layers of trauma and abuse from people who lack any sort of understanding, and we were created to change the narrative.
Storytelling, we believe, is one tool to change that, and we are committed to doing working stories as much as we can.
1. Embrace, respect and celebrate the diversity of the human spirit
Each human is different from another, and it is unreasonable, and even disrespectful, of us to expect a person to act like us. We are committed to embracing every human as they are, and honoring their individual preferences, needs, wants and desires. It does not make sense to tell them who they should be, but we believe it is fair to gently open their eyes to all the possibilities that exist.
2. Our commitment to delivering high-quality work will never lead to human suffering
We want to create work that we are proud of. That means work that you feel good with, and each of our staff, contractors and clients. We do not exist to create subpar work that no one feels good about. We love what we do, and we want to show it in every way.
Our goal is to stay ahead of the industry and its leaders. We constantly review books, conferences, materials, reports and studies on a range of subjects related to our clients’ success. Subjects we dive into:
- Graphic design
- Marketing (print, online, social media)
- Photography
- Sales (online, in person and over the phone)
- Videography
- Video editing
- Web design
- and more
At the same time, our commitment to high-quality work will never lead to human suffering. We will never ask anyone — a videographer, interviewee, client, for example — to do something that we know will cause suffering in any way. We exist to take care of people, and we will do everything in our power to not cause harm.
3. We exist to improve people’s lives.
We know our clients’ and their staff pour their hearts, souls, money and resources into their work, and we respect that. We acknowledge that any size of undertaking can cause frustration, disappointment or even discouragement. We know such complications can have ripple effects into one’s personal life, but we exist to make any challenges easier to navigate.
We are committed to going above and beyond to making success easy for our clients. We will go above and beyond in every way possible to serve as a trusted partner and advocate for our clients. We also advocate for those they serve by delivering quality work for the various audiences who experience our work.
