UpSpring just turned 16, and we’re celebrating the only way we know how—by being a little extra and loving every minute of it!

We asked the team to describe UpSpring in three words, and, naturally, they couldn’t pick just three:
✨ Creative
🤝 Collaborative
⚡ Dynamic

(Also considered: Strategic, Supportive, and Innovative—because we wear a lot of hats around here!)

Of course, working in PR and marketing means saying things like:
📌 “Just raising a flag.”
🔁 “Let’s circle back.”
💬 “So sorry to be a pest.”
📂 “Is that in Asana?”
✨ “I love it, but can we make it pop?”

If UpSpring had a theme song, it’d be a mashup of Don’t Stop Me Now by Queen and 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton—because we hustle hard, celebrate harder, and always keep the vibe high.
And if we were a beverage? Definitely an Espresso Martini—bold, classy, and always bringing the energy. (Also, caffeine is basically our spirit animal.)

Cheers to 16 years of creativity, connection, and unforgettable stories. Here’s to many more!

Women’s voices belong in every room, every board meeting, and every big decision. ✨

This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating the power of women-led businesses and the impact they have in shaping industries, breaking barriers, and paving the way for future generations.

But let’s be real—women in business are still fighting an uphill battle:
📉 Only 2% of venture capital funding goes to women-led startups.
📈 Yet, women-owned businesses generate $1.8 trillion in revenue annually in the U.S. alone.
💡 Companies with diverse leadership are 21% more likely to outperform their competitors.

At UpSpring, this mission is personal. As a women-owned and women-led agency, we’ve seen firsthand the challenges women leaders face—especially in industries where they’re underrepresented. Too often, women hesitate to champion themselves or take on opportunities unless they feel 1000% ready. But here’s the truth: Women are more than ready.

That’s why we’re not just talking about change—we’re taking action. In 2024, we launched the UpSpring Launch:HER Awards to give back to the female founders who are making a difference in their communities. Through this initiative, we awarded $500,000 in PR and marketing support to three exceptional women-led nonprofits. Because when women succeed, entire industries evolve.
We’re also proud to be WBENC-certified, reaffirming our commitment to championing women in business.

🚀 Women are building the future—let’s make sure they have the support they deserve. Who’s a female leader that has impacted your career or life? Tag them below and share why they inspire you! 💜👇
