1) Blog design and build

We fully redesigned and developed Degreed’s new blog, and integrated into their existing codebase. Degreed had several business objectives that needed to be integrated into the blog, including resources, success stories, and calls to action.

Positioning Degreed as an industry thought leader

Degreed had recently implemented a rebrand, had quality content, and wanted to merge those into an improved blog that positioned them as an industry thought leader. We heavily researched top blogs and drew inspiration from Slack, Dropbox, and Wistia’s among others.
