Through our storm of change: An agency rebranding

Change is a constant, driving force. Whether it sweeps in like a storm or evolves slowly over time, change defines everything around us. For Bannan Communications, it’s a happy medium: after six years in the field we’re officially growing the team — and shortening the name.

BannComm is here, with a reimagined site and a new, comprehensive suite of services.

Bannan Communications was founded with change in mind. Vanja Bannan wanted a career and a calling that never stayed put, that had to stay current to stay alive, that had no choice but to embrace change. In 2014, it started as a two person outfit with a singular focus: digital.

The field of communications has been in a state of constant disruption ever since technology in general began accelerating (printing press, anybody?) But digital tech threw gasoline on an already healthy fire. In a few short decades, the human race became more connected and intertwined than in all of our collective history.

Between 2014 and 2019, Vanja and her business partner Rick McLaughlin worked with several diverse clients who faced the challenge of these digital changes. Throughout it all, Vanja juggled the dual responsibilities of client management and starting a young family. Setbacks and sacrifices were common and in some cases heartbreaking, but the work remained top tier.

They built a bespoke eCommerce platform for a major international retailer. Revamped entire websites, and built more than a few from scratch. They managed social media, display ad and email campaigns. Digital contests, search engine optimization, podcast consulting… client needs were wide ranging, ambitious, and urgent.

Change was the only constant. And after more than five intense years of learning, discovery, experimentation and tireless execution, Bannan’s next step is here.

We are now BannComm — a modern communications consulting partner, specializing in highly creative digital marketing solutions for clients on the leading edge of their fields in science, technology and culture. The core team has expanded, along with the addition of a support team from all around the world.

In the early days of 2020, the future may seem daunting and uncertain. While we may not know what the next five years may bring, BannComm will bank on change. And change is nothing if not exciting.
