​As 2025 winds down, we’re taking a moment to reflect on a year full of incredible growth, powerful partnerships, and community-driven impact. At Big Deal Company, we don’t just provide fractional marketing and event support. We serve as true business or organizational partners, connectors, and collaborators. From Northern Colorado event planning to nonprofit communications strategy, we’ve been proud to amplify brands and missions that matter!
 
Here’s a look back at the moments, partnerships, and lessons that defined our 2025—and a glimpse into the bold future we’re building for 2026.

Strategic Partnership in Action: Our Fractional Work Highlights
This year, BIG DEAL was honored to support the Meals on Wheels of Greeley and Weld County team—providing communications planning and development strategy that helped elevate their essential mission. This was a prime example of the kind of deeply integrated, mission-aligned work we love doing through our fractional marketing and communications services.
 
We have also supported Ensight Skills Center, and  NOCOAC in a fractional capacity.
 
When clients bring us in, they don’t get just a consultant—they get a committed partner who’s all in on their vision.

​Events That Connected and Inspire

BIG DEAL + BizWest: A Trusted Event Partner
In 2025, we proudly continued our role as the event planning arm of BizWest, helping produce high-caliber experiences that drive business forward in Northern Colorado.

Discovery Day with Blue Federal Credit Union
One of our most inspiring conference collaborations this year was with Blue Federal Credit Union. We worked closely with their team to plan their annual Discovery Day, from crafting the theme to securing keynote speakers and entertainment. It was a powerful reminder of how intentional event design can spark culture, innovation, and community.

​Brand Elevation in Action: Fundraising with Heart
BIG DEAL was thrilled to support both Donna’s Law Colorado and Saint Transportation. With Donna’s Law, we helped build awareness and raise funds for this important legislation, and Saint Transportation enlisted our help to run their first-ever end-of-year fundraising campaign.
 
Our work helped align messaging, strategy, and storytelling to increase visibility and donor engagement. Supporting important causes with strong communications is central to our mission—and these collaborations reminded us how much a clear voice and strategic planning can move the needle!

NoCoFest: An Event with BIG Heart
If 2025 had a defining moment for our event team, it was NoCoFest—a massive community celebration and fundraiser that tested and showcased our full event planning capabilities. From complex permitting to coordinating vendors and programming, this was our most challenging project—and also our most rewarding!
 
We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been invited back for NoCoFest 2026, where we’ll bring the same heart and hustle to a new venue and refreshed mission. It’s partnerships like this that fuel us.

​Deepening Roots in Northern Colorado
BIG DEAL continues to grow its presence across Northern Colorado, and our new partnerships with NoCoFest, as well as our work with the new owners of the Promenade Shops at Centerra on their annual Halloween event, have helped solidify our role as a trusted event strategist in the region. We love helping our local communities shine, and our commitment to building meaningful relationships with regional leaders and organizations has never been stronger!

Learning, Leading, and Looking Ahead
2025 wasn’t just about supporting others—it was also about investing in our team. Professional development was a major focus for us this year:

• Christine, our CEO, was accepted into Colorado’s Tourism Leadership Development Cohort
• Christine is also an advisor to Destination Colorado
• Carrie, our CCO, graduated from the Institute for Leaders in Development
• Our many team members completed courses and webinars to stay sharp on the latest marketing and nonprofit strategy trends

These efforts reflect our ongoing commitment to excellence, relevance, and service. We believe that by continually investing in ourselves, we become better partners for our clients.

What’s Next for 2026?
Looking ahead, we’re excited to:

• Launch a more formalized nonprofit consulting arm with services spanning communications, grant writing, fundraising strategy, and event planning.
• Partner with more businesses and mission-driven organizations on national and local conferences, retreats, and planning events
• Continue our mission to be true partners—not just vendors—by deeply embedding in the missions of the brands we support

If your organization is looking to elevate your message, plan an unforgettable event, or develop a communications strategy that connects with your audience, we want to be part of your journey.

Let’s Make Big Things Happen in 2026
We believe your success is our success. As we close out 2025, we’re filled with gratitude for the incredible organizations we’ve supported—and energized for what’s ahead.

Set against the stunning backdrop of their beautifully landscaped backyard, twinkling lights from the gorgeous trees provided by Primary Event Rentals created an enchanting atmosphere. The shimmering pool and festive cabana added to the charm, making it a night to remember.

​The theme for the evening was “All White”, and guests embraced the dress code, adding an elegant touch to the celebration. The top-notch entertainment featured the incredible Branden Sipes, whose music set the perfect tone for the night. Adding an element of fun and surprise, a talented roaming magician captivated the guests with his amazing tricks!

Richard’s restaurant catering crew provided a delectable spread of food and manned the fully stocked bar, ensuring that every palate and guest was pleased.
  
The highlight of the night, of course, was Brenda’s reaction. Completely surprised and overwhelmed with joy, her face lit up the moment she realized the celebration was in her honor. It was particularly special to watch her shocked face when she realized that her daughter and new son-in-law had made a special surprise trip from their home in Texas.
 
The evening was truly magical, filled with light, love, and laughter. 

A special thanks to everyone who helped make Brenda’s birthday so special. It was a night we will all cherish for years to come!

​The holiday season brings joy, laughter, and wonderful times of togetherness. It is also a notorious time when expenses tend to soar. At BIG DEAL Company, we understand the importance of planning for and enjoying the holidays without breaking the bank. We’ve come up with a list of savvy budgeting tips to help you navigate this festive season without compromising the cheer:

• Create a Realistic Budget: Before diving into your holiday shopping, create a budget that covers all gifts, decorations, travel, and other expenses. Be honest about what you can afford and stick to your plan!

• Set Realistic Expectations: Remember, the holidays aren’t about lavish spending. Focus on creating meaningful experiences and cherished moments with loved ones. Time can be a great gift, too!
• Utilize Free or Low-Cost Activities: Embrace the spirit of the season by taking advantage of all of the free community events, light displays and volunteering opportunities. These activities can create lasting memories without putting a ding in your wallet!
• Plan ahead for next year: Consider taking advantage of the after-holiday sales and plan ahead for next year’s gift-giving!

 
At BIG DEAL Company, we believe in enjoying the holidays to the fullest while being mindful of your finances. By following these budgeting tips, you can spread joy without the stress of overspending. Remember, the best gift is the love and warmth you share with those you love and care about.
