About Dragonfruit Media
Why we do it:
🔥 Video is the fastest-growing and most scalable medium for organic customer acquisition
💵 Businesses owning organic distribution channels (vs constantly buying media) will dominate the future of marketing.
🌎 Stories transform lives, and if we can teach millions of people through our client’s videos, we are making the world a better place.
Dragonfruit’s values: 

1) You’re Here and You Belong
The ability to be vulnerable with each other is the most important predictive factor for our team. Mistakes will not be held against you. Hiccups are not only expected, they are WELCOME, they are the measure of learning.
2) Clarity is Kindness
Saying something clearly and promptly shows you care. We value transparency, vulnerability, and proactivity with communication. We also just straight-up value KINDNESS!!!!
3) 1% Better Every Day
We love to NERD OUT, and love people willing to do the same. There’s so much information out there in the world at our fingertips to make use of to make incremental progress.
4) Extreme Ownership
Whenever possible, find ways to take personal responsibility for a situation rather than blaming external circumstances. It’s the most empowered place to learn and make an impact! We like to say “Look in the Mirror, Not Out the Window”
