Despite the virtual nature of business this year – or perhaps because of it – Brand Intervention had its busiest year ever by quite a margin: 9 new brands and 5 rebrands as of this writing. Here are some of the highlights:
Jeff Robinson’s vision for a stress-free workplace came together as Retire Negative Stress, with a stunner of a website by Steff Hunter, and all the tools to roll the brand out. Red Toque Creative provided their usual super pro service handling the social media.
Calgary-based downhole drilling veterans Mark Lous and Jonathon Adelman saw their vision to deliver high performance new tools born as BarrelEye Downhole Tools.
North Carolina insurance marketing agency Savers Marketing rebranded with a new focus on their agents and took to social media to build brand awareness and recruit new agents.
One of our big celebrations this year was the opening of 2020 branding client Niche Grocerant. These ladies are just killing it, and their unique blend of shop/dine-in has really found an audience. Big yays to Ceri and Jami!
Long-time client Gold Hill Winery introduced a new brand to the market, Charisma, aimed at younger women. Megan Munro designed them the prettiest labels, using south Okanagan flowers.
Victoria’s top-dog dog trainer, Darcie Jennings, and her company CommuniCanine deserved a better website, and Steff Hunter made sure they got it.
Brand Intervention teamed up with top Victoria digital agency Caorda to brand the province’s first Estate Execution company - The Executors. Website is coming soon…
Micro community Developer Ryan Jabs needed an iconic look for his new company LapisHomes and Megan Munro delivered this beauty.
Another long-time client, master builder Brad Johnson, got a new website for his horse facility design & construction company Coastal Equestrian Build. Another Megan Munro special.
Jason Minhinnick was a student in the first business branding classes I taught to Indigenous Entrepreneurs, through the University of Victoria’s ACE program. He asked Brand Intervention to help him brand his new company Local Drywall, and Megan and I got our putty knives out and went to work.
A number of brands are still at various stages of pre-launch development, including Indigenous leader Tricia Thomas’ Tumuxw Communications, social conscience soap and shampoo maker Beba Botanica, and Alberta tool company Lexa Drilling Technologies. The Lexa logo is looking so sharp - and the website is coming.
Hotter on the stove is Edge Communications Group’s relaunch. Edge enthusiastically embraced a bold new telling of their tale. Their interstellar new website by Steff Hunter is coming…. Here’s a tease!
