Our Approach

With over a decade of experience helping associations, we’ll work together to transform your brand into a powerful communication platform in 3 critical ways:

Brand Development

We capture the essence of your organization and develop a verbal and visual language that expresses your identity. The process includes:

Discovery

Interviews, facilitated listening sessions, surveys, and competitive analysis are just a few methods we’ll apply to build an understanding of your brand’s story. In the end, a strategy document outlines our findings and illustrates the next steps.

Logo and Visual Language

From your logo to the typography, colors, patterns, and other elements that define and support your brand, we design the visuals to elegantly express your organization’s story.

Verbal Language

Clarity and consistency are key to nurturing trust among your members. We craft a cohesive messaging system drawn from your organization’s attributes and tailored to your unique audiences.

Brand System

The culmination of this process results in a comprehensive brand system that empowers your organization to connect deeply with its members. You gain a framework that ensures you communicate with your audience in a cohesive and scalable way.

Brand Rollout

Your new brand launches in a comprehensive, sustainable way that captures the attention and loyalty of the audiences who matter most.

Brand Onboarding

We help align stakeholders to your new brand and messaging, launching the next phase of your organization by providing guidance through the following:

  • Staff onboarding
  • Marketing team education
  • Board presentation
  • Partner/affiliate presentation
