Our approach

What makes a brand?

A brand starts with a logo, but a brand identity is how the world connects with your business. It includes a carefully curated color scheme + typography + collateral + core messaging that drives everything home. With the framework in place, everything about your brand becomes intentional and clear.

The logo

Color and type

A brand is more than just a logo. Color and type can set the tone and unify your printed materials, website, social media, and more. We’ll set specific guidelines on where and how to use it.

Our Process

Our process

01-Let's meet up

Step 01: Introduce / scope

Let’s meet up.

Let’s discuss your goals, expectations, timeline, and budget. Then, we’ll regroup and put together a scope and contract.

02-Tell me more

Step 02: Discovery

Tell me more

We’ll sit down interview style to dissect your thoughts and feelings — about your brand, of course — but we are great listeners. We want to hear about the company’s origin story and where you want it to go.

03-Set the mood

Step 03: Moodboards / general direction

Set the mood.

We’ll check in to present a few different visual paths. We’ll hone in on a stylistic direction and ensure we’re all on the same page.

04-Design

Step 04: Design

The work.

We’re off to the races to create a fresh new brand based on everything we’ve discussed. This typically takes a few weeks, but we promise the wait is worth it.

05-The Options

Step 05: Presentation

The options.

Based on the scope of your project, we’ll typically present 2-4 fully realized directions. This will include the logo and contextual examples like brand collateral, how the brand looks in a digital space, and how it looks out in the world.

06-Polish + Shine

Step 06: Revisions

Polish + Shine

Most projects will include two rounds of revisions in the scope. This means we’ll present, you’ll provide feedback, we’ll present again, and then we’ll prepare a final direction for approval with any additional feedback.

07-The roll out

Step 07: Brand guide + final files

The roll out

All final design guidelines go into one easy-to-reference PDF for your company. We’ll package up all the digital files you need to get started. Need ongoing design/marketing assistance? Let us know, and we’ll put together a plan.
