Stand Out. Be Remembered.

Stand Out in the Boulder, CO Market

Every Boulder business has competitors. The ones customers remember have a brand identity that stands apart. I build those brands.

This is what I did for one of your neighbors in Boulder, CO

Clean Cut Renovations logo with diagonal cut letterforms displayed on concrete building signage

Brand identity and custom website design for a Vancouver, WA renovation contractor. A logo concept with a literal diagonal cut through the letterforms became the foundation for an entire brand system and custom website.

Challenges Boulder Businesses Face

Wellness brands dominate the visual landscape

Boulder's health, wellness, and outdoor brands invest heavily in cohesive, values-driven branding. Every other business in town is measured against that standard. A generic visual identity signals that you don't understand Boulder's market expectations.

Educated consumers read your brand critically

Boulder has one of the highest concentrations of advanced degrees in the country. This audience notices inconsistent messaging, mismatched colors, and amateur design details that less critical markets might overlook. Every brand element gets scrutinized here.

Pearl Street sets the aesthetic bar

The curated, distinctive storefronts along Pearl Street Mall have established a visual expectation that carries over to digital presence. If your brand doesn't carry the same intentional quality as a Pearl Street shop, Boulder consumers notice the gap.

Local Expertise

Every market has its own visual language. What works in Boulder might not work elsewhere. The colors, imagery, and tone that resonate with local customers matter. We design brands that feel authentic to the Boulder community.

Why should you trust me?

Google did.

I didn't learn SEO from a blog. I worked with Google directly. They featured me on their Google Activate program all over Europe. If Google trusted me to represent them, you can trust me to rank you on them.

Common questions

Branding in Boulder FAQs

Boulder consumers care about values, sustainability, and authenticity. Your brand needs to communicate those things visually and verbally, not just claim them. Generic corporate branding falls flat here. I design brands that reflect the specific culture and expectations of the Boulder market.

Full brand identity projects in Boulder typically range from $3,000-$10,000. Boulder's quality-conscious market expects premium presentation, so cutting corners on branding directly hurts your ability to attract the customers you want. Think of it as the foundation every other marketing effort builds on.

A complete brand identity includes your logo (with variations), color palette, typography system, brand guidelines document, and essential applications like business cards and social media templates. I tailor the deliverables to your specific needs.

BE RECOGNIZED (new businesses) takes 1-2 weeks. BE REMEMBERED (established businesses rebranding) takes 4-5 weeks. The timeline reflects the depth of strategy and scope of deliverables, not delays.

Two packages. BE RECOGNIZED is $2,700 for a complete professional identity (logo, colors, fonts, guidelines, business cards, social profiles). BE REMEMBERED is $7,700 for a full brand system with strategy workshop, competitor analysis, and comprehensive applications. Both include all file formats and full ownership. Flexible payment options available.

Yes. You receive full ownership of all brand materials, including source files, brand guidelines, and complete usage rights. I transfer everything upon project completion so you can use it with any designer or printer in the future.

You work directly with me throughout the entire project. No handoffs to junior designers, no layers of project managers. That personal attention, combined with over 370 successful brands built using proven strategies, means your brand gets the focus it deserves.

Yes. I provide comprehensive launch support, including website development if needed, marketing material production, and team training to ensure your brand rolls out consistently across every touchpoint.

Your input and collaboration are essential throughout. I keep regular communication going and build in feedback opportunities at every stage so the final result truly reflects your vision.

BE RECOGNIZED includes 3 revision rounds. BE REMEMBERED includes unlimited revisions until you approve. After completion, you also get a 1-year evolution credit ($500 toward updates if your business pivots or adds a service line).

BE RECOGNIZED includes 3 revision rounds. BE REMEMBERED includes unlimited revisions until you approve. Most clients love their brand within 2-3 rounds, but the Love It Guarantee means I keep working at no extra charge until you are genuinely proud to put it everywhere.

Yes. I work with businesses nationwide and internationally, with experience across Europe and North America. Branding work is digital by nature, so location never limits effectiveness.

During our initial consultation, I evaluate your current brand effectiveness and determine whether updating existing elements or a complete rebrand better serves your goals. Sometimes a refresh is all you need. Other times, starting fresh is the smarter investment.

Absolutely. I can help with website design, marketing materials, or brand refreshes that build on your existing logo. Not every project needs to start from scratch.

Yes. I offer marketing and advertising services to support your brand launch and ongoing promotion, including website design and SEO to make sure your new brand gets found online.

The basics: your business goals, challenges, target audience, any current materials, competitor insights, timeline, budget, and your vision for the brand. I gather all of this during our initial discovery session so we start with a clear direction.

Yes. Monthly retainer packages are available for regular brand support, including new material creation, brand audits, and strategic guidance as your business evolves.
