Beaufort County Economic Development
Good for your business. Good for your soul.
Beaufort County, South Carolina has all the ingredients for a great business destination — a stunning coastal environment, a supportive entrepreneurial community, and an incredible team at the Beaufort County Economic Development Corporation that goes above and beyond for every business they serve.
Mindflint partnered with the BCEDC to uncover what truly sets Beaufort County apart — then brought that story to life across every channel, from a comprehensive messaging strategy and a redesigned website to live event production, social media management, original video content, and more.

Marketing & brand Strategy
Finding the story only Beaufort County could tell.
Starting with deep stakeholder interviews, competitive analysis, and syndicated audience research, we developed a clear brand positioning for the BCEDC: a place where extensive support meets an exhilarating environment — where entrepreneurs and their businesses can genuinely thrive. That positioning became the strategic foundation for every piece of communication that followed, giving the entire team a unified story to tell.
web + social
Bringing the soul of Beaufort County to life online.
With a clear message strategy in hand, we redesigned the BCEDC website to reflect the personality and energy of Beaufort County — focusing on a story-driven experience that connects with the entrepreneurs and business owners they’re trying to reach — and then extended that story on other digital channels like social and email.
Event Production
Building a brand that brings a community together.
Economic development doesn’t happen in isolation — it happens when the right people are in the same room. We helped create Converge, a regional economic development summit that brings together business owners, community leaders, and regional stakeholders to share resources, spark ideas, and build the kind of connections that move a region forward. From naming and visual identity to full event production, we built Converge into an experience that reflects everything Beaufort County stands for — welcoming, energetic, and built on the power of community.
Video
Putting available properties on the map — from 400 feet up.
For site selectors evaluating Beaufort County as a potential business destination, seeing is believing. We produced a series of drone flyover videos with custom motion graphic overlays to showcase available commercial properties in a way no brochure or data sheet ever could — giving decision-makers an immediate, tangible sense of scale, location, and opportunity. The result was a compelling, highly shareable asset that set the BCEDC apart from competing markets and made their available properties impossible to ignore.
