Critical Components For Your Business
Your BRAND is your company’s most valuable asset. It’s what motivates customers to buy. It’s what makes you better than the competition. It’s what attracts and retains quality employees. And it’s what builds a community of loyal brand advocates.

Without a strong brand to attract, engage, and inspire your audience, your business will struggle to thrive in today’s competitive marketplace.

With this much power and influence, developing an effective brand strategy is critical to the success and growth of your business.

Brand Strategy

Before a logo is designed, a marketing campaign is launched, or a website is developed, you must first build the foundation to support your entire business.

Website Design

One of your most important and influential consumer touchpoints is your website. It will most likely be the first interaction a consumer has with your business. Therefore, it must effectively communicate what your business does, why you do it, what problem your business solves, and how a potential customer can get access to more information.

01

Research & Audit

We begin the brand strategy process with a comprehensive audit of your business. We will review your current visual identity for consistency and evaluate all your consumer touchpoints to identify weaknesses and challenges that you may encounter. Next we will assess the competitive landscape to find opportunities for differentiation and potential strengths. Finally we will locate and isolate your target audience so we are confident that we are targeting the ideal customer.

02

Strategy & Plan

Once we have a clear understanding of your current brand, who your competitors are, and the ideal audience we need to target, we will begin the brand strategy process. This includes defining the 4 key pillars that set the foundation of your brand. Your brand Purpose, Vision, Mission, and Values. Once these are defined we will develop your brand’s personality, messaging, value proposition, and properly position your brand in the marketplace.

03

Map & Architect

With a solid brand strategy in place, the next step is to focus on the user experience. Developing an intuitive and enjoyable process for the consumer is critical to generating the greatest engagement from your website, application, or interface. We will architect the entire customer journey and flow to facilitate the quickest solutions to your customers’ problems. We will then test those solutions within real world scenarios to refine and improve the process to achieve the best customer experience.

04

Design & Build

Now that the foundation of your brand has been defined, we know how to make the competition irrelevant, we know who your brand needs to communicate with, and the best user experience has been mapped and tested, the next step is to begin the creative process. This includes designing your visual identity, website, application, interface, and any other component of your project. We will then create guidelines to guarantee that your brand is implemented consistently across all your consumer touchpoints and marketing campaigns.

05

Launch & Manage

The final step is to release your new brand strategy and user experience into the world for everyone to see. This launch phase includes your website, social media channels, marketing campaigns, advertisements, environmental displays, internal corporate documents, and any other consumer touchpoints that are required for your business. But it doesn’t end there. After the initial launch, we will continue to monitor, manage, and audit your brand each month to maintain consistency, growth, and a positive customer experience.

CHRIS MCCARTHY

For 25 years I have had the incredible opportunity to work with some of the most well known and successful brands in the world.

My teams and I have helped these organizations develop their brands, design their visual identity, capture more qualified leads, communicate their message, and build their online marketing platforms.

One of my most important roles as a designer, marketer, and brand strategist is to analyze and determine the reasons why some businesses easily rise above the competition, and why 90% of businesses fail within the first 3 years.

The reason why so many small businesses struggle, and ultimately fail, is because they lacked the fundamental foundation and strategy that is required to not just survive, but to THRIVE.

This is the exact problem that I have solved for dozens of businesses over the past 2 decades. And I would love to add your business to that list of success stories.
