How to Work from Home Productively

The COVID-19 epidemic has resulted in a sudden and unexpected shift to remote work for many Americans. While there are some great benefits to working remotely (the dress code is a lot more relaxed, for starters), those unaccustomed to doing so can find themselves struggling to ignore distractions and maintain productivity. There are some challenges, to be sure, but by implementing certain strategies, you’ll be able to focus on the tasks at hand and contribute to your company’s success during these uncertain times.

EGM Takes Home a Silver ADDY

Each year, the local American Advertising Federation chapter in the Black Hills hosts the AAF Awards — a night to celebrate the talent in marketing throughout the industries represented in our area.

Our Favorite Downtown Hangouts

Downtown Rapid City charms locals and visitors alike with its mixture of history and culture. Compact and walkable, with a variety of shops, galleries, and restaurants, not to mention a family-friendly vibe, there’s plenty to love. When Evergreen Media relocated from the northern outskirts of town to an energetic, creative space at 329 Main Street in the heart of downtown, we looked forward to immersing ourselves in the thriving downtown scene and being more accessible to both our vendors and the public. Our location provides staff with the perfect opportunity to explore (at least when the weather is decent). Naturally, we all have favorite spots, both during and after business hours. Here are some of our staff picks.

On the Bookshelf

We all have a list a mile long for the books we want to read. Reading is a great escape from deadlines and work, and can help us fine-tune and adjust our business skills or individual needs. Check out what the staff at Evergreen Media are currently reading or what’s next on their list!

2020 Vision

Now that January is half over, you’ve probably been bombarded with talk of “2020 vision.” It’s easy to dismiss this overused phrase as a cliché, but it really is a perfect analogy for the new year. It represents forward-thinking and gives us something on which to pin our hopes. But what does it really mean?

A Look Back Through 2019

This time of year is always bittersweet. It’s a time that is crazy busy – planning for Q1, trying to get through Q4, holidays, and events…but, it’s also so much fun to look back to the beginning and see how far we’ve come. I hope you enjoy looking at our year in review as much as we enjoyed compiling it and reflecting on how lucky we are to work with such amazing people and do what we love each and every day.

Gift Ideas for the Creative Pro

Between decorating the house, cooking fancy meals, shoveling snow, and shopping for friends and loved ones, the holiday season is hectic. Before you know it, you’ll be gathered beneath the tree, exchanging gifts. Stuck coming up with the perfect present for that creative or office professional in your life? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! We polled the Evergreen staff to find out which office products they simply can’t live without (or wish they had). Hopefully, these will give you the inspiration you need!

Why Team Evergreen Walked Like Egyptians

You might think of lip sync as karaoke for those who are too nervous to actually sing. We consider it a fun way to pay tribute to a musical artist or band! Every year, team Evergreen puts together a video featuring our staff lip syncing to a popular radio hit…and we do it for a great cause. Read on to learn more!

4 Steps to Creating a Successful Budget

Money matters to all of us, whether we have a little bit or a lot. Managing your money should be a top priority; otherwise, you’re liable to find yourself with an empty bank account at the end of the month—or living paycheck-to-paycheck. The best way to ensure financial security is to create a budget.

Intern Profile: Sarah Richards

Evergreen Media has it all. Friendly faces, puppies, hiking, and an open work space; what’s not to love?

As a photography student in the BFA program at Black Hills State University, I am required to complete a 150-hour internship. I explained what I was looking for in an internship to my advisor, Steve Babbitt, and he introduced me to the possibility of Evergreen Media. I knew as a first semester junior it might have been a long shot, but I had to try.
