Almost all of the organizations we work with are too small to have in-house designers available to support their day-to-day design needs. That’s why we believe it’s so important for you to hone your own design skills – at the end of the day, the main person responsible for maintaining your own brand on a daily basis is you.

If that’s intimidating at first, have no fear – the good news is that design is a skill just like any other: it can be learned. You only need to know a little bit to make a big difference in the work you do every day. We’ll always be around for advice, and there’s no substitute for a professional brand foundation, but after you’re finished working with us, we want you to have the skills to flourish on your own.
