OUR STORY & WHAT WE HAVE TO OFFER

About Us

BRANDING & WEB DESIGN STUDIO

We specialize in Branding, WordPress Websites, and Online Care for service industry brands with big hearts (like you!) looking to shape their branding in a cohesive and visually pleasing way.

Launching a business is hard work! There are so many things to learn, create, and manage that makes it hard to keep track of everything. If you’re new to the process, it can be pretty overwhelming.

Don’t stress, we’re here to help!

Truth is, it’s perfectly natural to obsess about the details of your brand. Over here at Brand & Press, we know what it’s like and we want to take away the stress and excuses by taking the design work off your plate so you can spend more time focused on your business.

For every project that we take on, we start by understanding the mission, values, and heart of your brand to uncover the needs of your audience. This foundation allows the design concepts that emerge to be thoughtful, intentional, and to clearly communicate your message to the right people.

Let us be your brand’s secret weapon!

Together, we can bring all of your ideas to life in print or pixels, and get your business up and running quickly and well-designed.
