What do all of our clients have in common?
Our clients come from a wide variety of sectors and specialisms, yet they all have one thing in common; the desire to engage people with their work in as impactful, memorable, informative and visual way as possible.
Helping people easily and clearly see the value and benefit of an organisation and its work (via rich pictures, graphic recording or whiteboard animation) serves a number of purposes:
- For team members: ENGAGEMENT AND MOTIVATION. It helps them understand how the work they do day in and day out contributes to the organisations goals.
- For leaders in the organisation: STRATEGY AND DIRECTION. It helps them to consider the bigger organisational picture in the decisions they make and the priorities they set for themselves and their teams.
- For customers: UNDERSTANDING AND ENGAGEMENT. It helps them to see how the organisation operates, how it aligns with their values and how it will provide them with the product or service they require.
Our clients use our images and animations as both standalone resources and often as part of a wider internal or external communication initiative.
Another experience our clients have in common is that the more they use our illustrations and animations across their organisations, the better the shared understanding of their organisation becomes. This enables more effective conversations and meetings and, in turn, increases action and productivity – all of which are vital to achieving the organisations aims and objectives.
You can read more about our clients experiences of working with Crackerjack Visual Thinking on our home page.
To discuss how Crackerjack Visual Thinking could help your organisation engage people with your story and vision, please feel free to contact us for a no-obligation discussion.

Crackerjack Visual Thinking is pleased to share that we’ll be working with Dassault Systemes on a new visualisation project involving live real time development of a visual to aid communication between Dassault and a key client.
We’ll be creating the visual using Affinity Designer on an iPad Pro to enable quick development of ideas and sharing of the visual as it’s created.

Creating a rich picture for the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Norfolk
Crackerjack is looking forward to beginning work tomorrow on creating a rich picture for the Office of the Police and Crime Commisioner for Norfolk (OPCCN).

The rich picture will visualise the story of the OPCCN and the role it plays in the Norfolk community. The target audience for the rich picture is broad and includes the public and key stakeholders in the work of the OPCCN.
We hope to share the final rich picture with you in a few weeks time.
