We’ve worked with some pretty cool clients over the years, many of which have had awesome missions. But we love an organization which continues to evolve to offer the programs industry needs. For more than 20 years Women in Resource Development Corporation (WRDC) has been fighting for gender representation and now equality in the trades and tech spaces. We’re really proud to have begun working with them on some new marketing materials, like this brochure, as well as some upcoming surprises later this year. Check it out!

Our Waddle

Rogue Penguin was created by three marketing minds who love the work, but not the office life. Working 9-5 isn’t for everyone and it can be tough to come up with big ideas from behind a little desk. So, we go out into the wild, gathering ideas from nature, our city on the easternmost tip of Canada, and from conversations with people who think like your customers. We’re a different kind of agency.
