“When you’re trying to accomplish something big, an outside voice is invaluable. The problem is, sometimes consultants think their job is to change the client. That isn’t who Storylabs is. They didn’t come in looking to change us – their goal was to help us succeed while staying true to who we are. Really, the truth is that Storylabs wanted to help us do MORE than we thought we could do. They helped us see challenges before they became problems, encouraged us to find creative solutions, always keeping the big picture in mind. Seacoast is starting a new chapter; the team at Storylabs helped us write some great opening lines.”

“They took a concept and turned it into the prime communication tool to connect our 10,000 active employees and 6,000 retirees across North Carolina. From the strategic design of the newsletter to the actual interviewing and concept development work they were creative, innovative and cost effective. The writing was some of the best I’ve ever seen in my 32 year career.

I would recommend their services as marketing professionals, design gurus, interviewers, public relations specialists and project coordinators. Not only are they creative geniuses, but they have a genuine love and concern for people that is evident in their work. Although I have moved to Dallas, Texas in a another role, I would engage StoryLabs again to do work for us anywhere across the country should the opportunity and need arise.”

“The team at StoryLabs has been involved in multiple Eleven22 building projects as well as conferences and events that our leadership is involved in. The years of ministry experience they have, along with the years of building design, make them an incredible asset to any project. They are extremely helpful in providing clarity of vision and helping make hard budget decisions while not sacrificing the overall story the facility is communicating. I would highly recommend the team at StoryLabs to help you create your next environment. They get it.”

“I have worked with Don Smith (StoryLabs, CEO) on the design of our last two campuses as well as various other ministry contexts. Very quickly, he helped identify the unique vision of The Summit Church and established guardrails throughout the design process to make sure the Summit story was being told subtly in these spaces. I have even used his help in on-boarding new team members and brainstorming new leadership structures.

If you are looking to design a new facility, or even make your current facility look and feel more like you, get Don and StoryLabs involved now. Their work is great and they will save you money along the way by helping you invest the right resources in the right places the first time. ”

Jason DouglasExecutive Pastor of Weekend Ministries, The Summit Church

“The StoryLabs team brings a nearly unmatched level of expertise into their work. Their leadership has the unique ability to understand the world of ministry in not only a pragmatic sense but also with an outside-the-box, creative slant as well. At First Christian we were thrilled with what the StoryLabs team was able to help us dream up. On a ministerial level, I can also attest to their heart for the Kingdom and their commitment to seeing it grow and advance. I highly recommend the StoryLabs team for your next project!”

Ryan RasmussenLead Pastor - First Christian Church

“If you are looking to build or even fresh up your space, all I can say is don't skip the StoryLab. There are things you may not see that live inside of you. This team has the ability to draw it out so you don't miss the clear story God has birthed in your church.”

Daniel LucasLead Pastor, Better Life Church

“The StoryLabs team helped us reimagine how we communicate our unique identity in big and small ways. From the language we use with our staff and people, to the story our campus tells, their process was deep and effective. I would recommend them without hesitation to any church at any stage of health. The local church has been given the most important story on earth to tell. StoryLabs will help you tell it better.”
