Hello 2017! Meet #thesavageway

Hello 2017! Meet #thesavageway

Torrie & Paula of #thesavageway

Meet #thesavageway: Torrie Savage & Paula Bartlett seeking the good on a job in Boston, MA.

Meet #thesavageway

We’ve been in business since 2012. In the early days we focused on social media execution/training along with PR for local Charlotte businesses. From Papi Queso, Heist Brewery and Libretto’s Pizzeria to AIR Aerial Fitness and Cruise Carts, our client list was diverse and successful. However, while we were representing our clients during the day, at night we were creating something new and different – Clean Graffiti (or a clean message on a dirty sidewalk).

As we developed our core eco-friendly service, Clean Graffiti, we deliberately created a shift in our business. We began opening up our time for more Clean Graffiti work and slowly wrapping up our social media consulting clients. This shift happened over a few years, but now we are in a place where the services of #thesavageway reflect our passions.

We still consult and guide local businesses from time to time, but we only accept a handful as clients. And the ones we choose to work with, we wholeheartedly believe in what they stand for as a company.

So what is #thesavageway?
We are a creative marketing agency. We seek clients who are willing to think big and entrust us with their message.
We cultivate creativity in nature. Whether it is dirt and concrete or moss and recycled wood, we find the beauty in the outdoors and turn it into a creative marketing campaign.
We are a lifestyle. Our outlook on life, the future, health, food and relationships – they all revolve around compassion and living colorfully. We seek the good in all things and desire for you to as well.

So hello! We’re Paula Bartlett (that’s me – I write this blog) and Torrie Savage. 2017 is going to be a great year and we hope that you follow along. Expect to see some fun reverse graffiti campaigns (across many cities), lots of yummy plant based food, dancing videos, laughter and other shenanigans. Oh and be sure to follow our Instagram page – that’s where all the fun really happens 🙂

Let the Beer Quest Begin

Let the Beer Quest Begin

Fall beer festival, Beer Quest, is going down this Saturday, 11/19. #thesavageway

Beer Quest is happening Saturday, November 19 at BB&T Ballpark. #thesavageway

All About Beer Magazine’s fall beer festival, Beer Quest, is going down this Saturday, November 19. Head to BB&T Ballpark (324 S. Mint St Charlotte, NC) for the VIP hour, 12-1pm, or General Admission from 1-5pm. It is sure to be a day full of delicious beers from 35 of the nation’s top breweries. More information on the event.

Beer Quest is a little different than your typical beer festival. Guests can either meander around the event to sample all the beers, or they can follow four distinct paths to enjoy their favorite styles of beer. These paths include Hoppy & Curious, Fizzy Yellow Greatness, The Dark Path and Not 4 n00bs. The four curated beer experiences can be seen here.

#thesavageway had the pleasure of executing some Clean Graffiti for Beer Quest to help promote the event on a local level. The spots went down in and around Uptown, Charlotte, NC. It was fun being able to create a design that incorporated elements of a comic strip, a video game and an action movie.

The quest begins on Saturday, November 19 in Charlotte, NC. #thesavageway

Join the quest this Saturday, November 19 at BB&T Ballpark. #thesavageway

Handmade Moss Art Created for a Client in Ohio.

Custom Moss Art Bike by #thesavageway.

We were commissioned to create a unique piece of art for a client in Ohio. This piece would later go on to be a wedding gift for a bike-loving, adventurous couple. It’s such a unique experience to help a client’s vision come to life. To be a part of the journey from a simple idea to a completed finished product is one-of-a-kind.

This bike is 24” in wide on 0.5” thick wood. We partner with a local wood worker, The Wooden Fox, on custom pieces like this. Cost: $200

Our Moss Art is all custom, handmade artwork using preserved moss to create a natural element for the home. It’s perfect décor for the office or home that brings a maintenance-free, outdoor element inside. We can turn any logo, phrase or image into a moss masterpiece. It’s the perfect wedding gift for that hard-to-shop-for bride or the Uncle who seems to have everything.

If you are interested in learning more about how you can get Moss Art in your home, please email [email protected]. We are able to ship anywhere!
