[Give to Get Jobs](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/give-to-get-jobs), a website that lists social good careers, said that Baldwin&'s mission "is to create ideas that have a positive effect in the world. They have a national footprint and maybe more importantly a national mindset."

Social Business' sister site, Trend Hunter, wrote about the marketing and packaging that Baldwin& worked with Burt's Bees Gud packaging in order to revamp what has come to be known as the organic cosmetics industry. You can get a sense of the reinvention through the name of the article: "[Patterned Petal Branding: Burt's Bees Gud Packaging Gushes with a New Natural Graphic Strategy](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burt-s-bees-gud-packaging)."

The start-up has worked with other brands including Sony, IKEA and BMW Golf.
