OVERVIEW
Forty Acres Soul Kitchen had a unique and truly authentic restaurant concept for Grand Rapids but needed help tightening the brand and making it relevant for diners in GR despite several delays in opening dates and obtaining a liquor license. TIS created a strategic plan to keep diners excited about the opening of Forty Acres and willingness to dine there before they were granted a liquor license.

"We appreciate the TIS posse through and through. They're more than just brand marketers—they're true allies."
