“Whatcha gonna do… when the memories run wild on you?”
RIP to the one and only Hulk Hogan.

Our founder and the 316 crew had some fun during COVID with this legendary WWF belt while visiting St. Pete, home turf of the Hulkster and longtime friend of Mark Hargrove, founder of Net Media.

Mark and Hulk shared a deep friendship, and we’ve had the privilege of working alongside Mark for over a decade.

Today, we raise the championship belt a little higher.

Happy Birthday, Sara! 🥳

Today we’re celebrating someone who brings genuine heart, unmatched energy, and a whole lot of fun to the 316 crew. From big ideas to everyday moments, Sara shows up with purpose and pours into every person she meets.

She’s equal parts driven and down-to-earth—and when she’s not making big things happen at 316, you can usually find her hanging out with her two favorite sidekicks, Martha and Bear. 🐾

Here’s to another year of doing what you love, making an impact, and creating space for others to do the same.

Cheers to you, Sara—have the best birthday! 🧡

📷 Happy National Camera Day!

They say if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life—and for us, that started with picking up a camera just for fun.

What began as a creative outlet has become part of our everyday work. From food shoots to behind-the-scenes content, we’re lucky to call this “the job.” Grateful for a team of storytellers who turn their hobbies into art—and then into impact.

Here’s to passion becoming profession, one snapshot at a time!

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: the secret to good work isn’t just strategy—it’s people!

The kind that lean in. That asks better questions. Those aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo if it means getting to something smarter.

This team? They’re the reason 316 is what it is.
Not just because of what they do, but because of how they do it. Together.

Sometimes, it starts with a Post-it Note.

This morning, we walked into the office to find a simple pink sticky note on the door. It read:

"Look at the views on Facebook. Have an awesome day!" 😊

That tiny note said everything.

Here’s the backstory: One of our long-time clients has built their brand almost entirely on Instagram. For years, we encouraged them to consider Facebook—to tap into a completely different audience.

After all, 7 out of 10 people use Facebook. That’s not a trend—it’s reach.

Reluctantly, they agreed to let us post to Facebook just 7 days ago. Since then, one of the Reels we created has exploded:

📈 885,000 views
❤️ 18,000+ interactions
👥 1,200 new followers

It’s a powerful reminder that your audience might be waiting somewhere you're not looking yet. Sometimes, all it takes is a little trust—and the right team behind you.

And yeah… a pink Post-it to celebrate the moment.

This sign doesn’t mean “go away.” It means “get here earlier tomorrow.”

It’s one of the simplest, scrappiest, and most effective marketing tools I’ve ever used.

It’s called sold-out sign marketing, and it works—especially when it’s real.

We’ve used it with BBQ joints, bakeries, and small businesses across the country.

Here’s the psychology behind it—and how you can use it to train behavior and drive demand:
