Why we are different
People First:
Our highest priority is honoring, encouraging, and developing the people we work with and for, because we believe that people—not money, not things, not ideas—can change the world.
Loyalty:
Because we value deep relationships over “the next best thing,” we are committed to investing in the kind of rewarding loyalty that can only come from consistent service and sacrifice over time.
Curiosity:
We tenaciously pursue smarter, better, and more inspiring ways of doing things, because we believe that the world’s greatest ideas started with the question, “What if?”
Niceness:
We are kind, considerate, agreeable people who frequently set our own agendas aside, surrender our comfort, and bend over backwards to serve our clients and build up our teammates.
Excellence:
We revolt against mediocrity, commonplace, and average with everything in us, even when it hurts, because we believe greatness is the “magic” that makes people believe anything is possible.
Integrity:
Since the “high road” is the only road where everyone wins, it’s the only one we’re ever willing to travel—no matter the pressure, no matter the circumstance, no matter the cost.
Teachability:
We believe that the number one ingredient in a life of continuous improvement is a humble and teachable spirit that truly believes there is always a way to get better.
Can-do-attitude:
We are a unified group of glass-half-full, anything’s possible, no-mountain-high-enough overcomers who delight in the fulfillment that comes from facing adversity—and coming out on top.
Clients
Since 1990, automätik has served clients across a broad spectrum of industries. And, while our primary focus has been on automotive, the skills we’ve honed—namely, creating engaging consumer and training events, forward-thinking mobile classroom engineering, cutting-edge graphic and digital publishing, and personalized service—play well from industry to industry.
