The Origins of the Unicorn & Sasquatch: A Journey Through the Mythical Forest of Creativity

At CMO* To-Go, we understand the power of storytelling to transform who we are and how we act. Stories don’t just captivate us—they define us, drive us, and remind us of what truly matters. The unicorn and sasquatch in our logo tell a story of exploration, creativity, and honoring the wisdom of those who came before us. The unicorn is a tribute to the incredible people I’ve worked with along the way. It reflects a legacy of insights and ideas shared with me throughout my career—a nod to those who helped shape my vision and encouraged me to dream bigger. The sasquatch, on the other hand, embodies the search for originality, the drive to push beyond the familiar, and the courage to navigate a world that often loses the forest for the trees. Together, the unicorn and sasquatch symbolize a journey into the unknown, guided by experience yet unafraid to carve new paths in the quest for truly transformative creativity.

So, yes, we want you to excel, to reach new heights, and to conquer your market. Because when you're thriving, you'll want even more of what we offer.

Your success? That's our selfish wish!
