If You’ve Got A Business, It Has A Brand.

Maybe it’s time to start paying attention to what it is.

Your brand is not your name, nor is it your logo, icon, or that fancy sticker on the side of your truck. It is everything your market knows, or believe they know, about your company and the products you sell. It does not differentiate between fact and emotion, it is simply the perception of your offering that exists in the minds of the people who buy (or choose not to buy) what you’re selling.

With that in mind, it’s our job to create, or sometimes recreate, that perception, in a way that ultimately causes more people to buy more of what you have to offer. That kind of deliverable comes in many shapes and sizes, but understanding your current brand perceptions is the first step to developing a strategy that can produce tangible results for your organization.

restaurant

Deliver an experience that exceeds expectations.

The restaurant industry is extremely competitive, and diners are becoming more knowledgeable and demanding of their experience. You need to counter that with an experience that surpasses their expectations, surprising them with your attention to detail and delivering on your brand promise at every turn.

We work with established restaurateurs to develop restaurant brands that last. Our experience ranges from some of the most established restaurant chains in the world to one-off eateries; from quick serve restaurants to fine dining establishments. Common to every restaurant we design is the process, and our passion to develop a winning solution that meets the client’s unique set of needs. While the physical design of the restaurant, including signage, menus, artwork, build, and rollout to subsequent stores is at the core of what we do, more importantly we help our clients to realize that each aspect of the guest experience contributes to their perceptions of the brand. We deliver overall solutions that give our clients the best chance at creating loyal brand ambassadors out of each guest.



Your guests are demanding more each visit, and the customer is always right, especially in the social media age. How are you meeting and exceeding their expectations?

retail

Sell more than a product.

Your retail environment exists to facilitate the sale of goods, but its value extends well beyond that. Creating an atmosphere that shoppers feel comfortable in – a place where they want to see and be seen – will develop brand loyalty, repeat visits, and improved sales. Leveraging the physical environment to tell and extend your brand story is one way to create believable brand moments that resonate with your target consumer. Providing an experience that is relevant to your key audience not only gets them through the door, but keeps them there longer, and encourages them to come back, hopefully to share that experience with others.

We design retail spaces that tell your brand story. Our environmental design team work with all types of physical locations to establish flagship stores and rollout adaptations that stand the test of time and the market. We can work with single retail outlets, or design a framework that can be the foundation upon which to build multiple locations, franchises, or adaptations to fit any environment. Our designers work hand in hand with our graphics team to ensure that the brand story is communicated within through the use of effective graphic treatments, and our years of experience in the industry provide us with an extensive supplier list that allows us to source almost any material from all four corners of the globe.

The time your customer spends in your store is as important as their perception of the good or service you sell them. Stop selling products and start selling experiences.

digital

You’re open 24 hours a day, in the palm of your customer’s hands.

10 years ago we were trying to convince marketing and brand managers about the value of their website as a marketing tool, and it’s hard to believe how much things have changed since. The digital world is a rapidly evolving space, and we know that it can be difficult for business owners to know where to invest your marketing capital. Your brand lives online as much as it does in the real world, and we’re here to try to help you communicate your brand position effectively in a complicated medium.

Whether it’s designing and building websites, crafting quality content, developing for mobile, or creating social campaigns, everything we do in the digital space is done with an eye towards further defining and reinforcing your unique brand proposition. We develop your digital footprint with as much care and attention as we do your physical one, and while the same principles apply, our years of experience operating in the digital landscape give us the experience to guide your brand online.

marketing

If a sale falls in a forest, does anyone hear about it?

How your customers find out about you, your product, and your promotions is critical to your success, and first impressions are important. Every single place your customer sees your brand contributes to their perception of it, and a single marketing misstep can undermine years of successful communications.



We work with our clients to help them understand which opportunities might be right for them, and which ones they should avoid. We then help craft messaging and execute creative that is on point and effective. When done consistently, each of these marketing pieces creates a body of work that establishes your brand at the top of your target customer’s mind. Find out how we can help you to create marketing communications that work.

photography

We're foodies first. Art directors a close second.

We work with established restauranteurs to develop compelling food shots that inspire guests to trial. We've spent a lifetime art directing some of the restaurant industries’ most recognizable food photography. As foodies we intuitively know how to prop and style dishes in a way that is both artful and functional. With a background in the development of restaurant brands and interiors, we instinctively look to connect the food settings and style with the vibe of the actual restaurant, making the photography authentic and on-brand. We know that your food needs to be the Hero of your concept, and that iconic photos become the strongest call to action. In a saturated restaurant marketplace you can’t afford to have your food photography just ‘blend-in’, it needs to ‘stand-out’. When it comes to menu boards, it’s your chance for great story telling and to attract the eye from a distance. Our motion-graphics team can bring a menu to life through the use of either still or video captures, and the animation of elements that attract the eye. Menu take-overs allow us to tell various brand stories in a way that is disruptive and powerful. With our longstanding photography partners, we can set up complex shots and have ultimate control of the lighting. On site at your restaurant we can capture the energy of the kitchen, cooking, plating, service, and the restaurant setting. We are friendly, approachable, unpretentious, and ready to jump into every opportunity. Let’s shoot together soon!
