Quality Graphic Design Uniquely Defines your Calgary & Cochrane Area Business
People often think of logo design as a company’s “brand.” However, the term brand extends to the entire experience your potential, new and returning customers have when interacting with your company: Your Web site is part of your digital marketing brand, so is your visibility in Google’s search results, your brochures, your company vehicles, your social media profiles and interactions, even the uptime of your website is part of that brand experience.
Brand also now extends beyond a company or business, it extends to our personal brands, to social causes and fan pages. So strengthening your overall brand extends beyond your logo or website, it is more and more defined by the level of authority any brand has online. Search Engine Optimization these days is a true reflection of this focus and is needed for any level of business or brand that is looking to achieve success online.
That said, your brand’s nucleus is your logo as it represents your company vision, culture and purpose. So it definitely requires creativity, strategy and thoughtful consideration so it can successfully convey all of those values. Professional graphic designer services are an essential part of your brand’s development and overall marketing strategy. Using leading edge design software, coupled with extensive design experience, our art director, visual designer and project managers work closely with our clients to ensure their vision is not only captured in the brand, but also aligned with key fundamental standards used by the largest brands in the world. A properly developed logo and its supporting brand elements will set a company apart from its competitors who chose a less professional approach.

Before You Brand or Rebrand…
Whether you are looking for a brand new logo for a brand new company or if you are looking to re-vision your existing brand or corporate identity, we’d recommend reviewing or considering the following steps before you start the design process:
- Do you have a marketing strategy in place? If not, we can help with this initial step too.
- Who is your immediate competition?
- Are there any brands that you’d like to emulate?
- What makes your company or organization unique?
- What core values do you wish your company to be known for?
- Do you need to develop a Mission statement or Vision statement, or review and update existing ones?
- Do you want to be seen as a local business or a larger brand over the next 3 to 5 years?
- Do you have ideas for your logo as far as concept or color? (We can help in either case).
- Would you rather work with a local team that can meet with you directly to discuss ideas?
- How consistent is your current branding experience in print, Web and social media?
- Do you need to consider other marketing channels such as signage, uniforms and web development at this time?
- How do you want your customers, employees and peers to view your brand?
Please note: While we can help you answer some of these questions simply by delving into the Branding Identity Package, we recommend you consider these questions before developing your brand. They will help you clarify your current and future direction. Since 2001, we have helped hundreds of businesses develop a unique brand that captures their spirit and vision. If you’d like more information on developing a full marketing strategy, just let us know, we’d love to help.

Logo & Graphic Design Portfolio
As your local graphic design team, we’ve helped establish and expand branding of many Calgary and Cochrane companies since 2001. We are proud to support our local business community. It’s inspiring to help both established companies and startups, helping them to define or redefine their brand. It is always an exciting process to explore possibilities with our clients.
However, our design process doesn’t start with design, it starts with listening; as designers we are here to help you clarify your business’s purpose and image and this starts with where you are right now and where you’d like to go in the future.
We’ve found that all businesses have that spark of creation, their “purpose” to being, the service they provide and their unique embodiment of fulfilling that service. In the end, every business has to start somewhere and it is a very healthy process for a business to stop and take the time to re-evaluate their vision in this constantly changing social and economic times as our community’s needs grow.
