At High Level Marketing, March isn’t just about the arrival of spring—it’s about High Level Madness! Our annual March Madness bracket challenge has become a beloved tradition, bringing together HLMers from all teams to engage in some friendly competition, fun banter, and, of course, a shot at bragging rights and awesome prizes.
Whether you're a die-hard basketball fan or someone who picks teams based on mascot fierceness (no judgment here!), our bracket challenge is all about connection. As the tournament unfolds, Slack channels light up with reactions to buzzer-beaters, Cinderella stories, and heartbreak losses. There’s nothing quite like watching underdogs pull off upsets—unless, of course, they just wrecked your bracket!
At HLM, we thrive on a little friendly competition, and March Madness is the perfect way to keep that energy alive. Teammates cheer each other on (or engage in some good-natured trash talk) as they root for their picks. It’s a reminder that while we work hard, we also know how to have fun and celebrate together.
While the ultimate prize is office glory, we make sure our winners don’t go home empty-handed. The top bracket masters each year score exciting prizes—making every buzzer-beater and upset prediction even more thrilling. Congrats to our 2025 winners, pictured below!
What started as a simple office bracket has grown into a full-fledged HLM tradition, uniting our remote team in the excitement of the tournament. It’s another way we build our unique company culture—one that values teamwork, engagement, and a little bit of competitive spirit.
So, whether you’re a seasoned bracketologist or just here for the fun, one thing is for sure—High Level Madness is a slam dunk for team culture! 🏀🔥
