/ ˈempaTH / 

noun

1. A person with the ability to understand the mental state of another individual.

2. The path taken by brands who seek to connect powerfully with their customers.

Chances are, if your brand needs compelling design, you’re in at least one of these situations:

1. Competition:  Your industry is saturated. You need to stand out to consumers in a memorable way.

2. Innovation:  You have an innovative product with few competitors. You need to promote understanding to early adopters.

3. Impact:  You’re a non-profit or charity with a good cause. Your story needs to stimulate emotion.

In each of these realities, creativity is not enough. The design of your brand needs to be fueled by deep empathy and delivered with expert communication.   That is how we create your brand’s:

LOGO,  VISUAL IDENTITY,  MESSAGING,  WEBSITE,  COPY & SCRIPTS,  PRINT MATERIAL

Creativity & communication are two very different skills. They operate in different parts of the brain, and are rarely found in the same person. When brands hire creative agencies they get creatives, not expert communicators. Why? Because:

Top communicators are made in the sales industry, not in the design industry. Sales pros spend all day communicating value to generate sales. Unfortunately true sales pros are already rare, so imagine how hard it is to find an expert communicator who also has creative talent.
