LOGO: Complete Organizing Solutions is a full-service organizing business that helps their clients get their lives in order, either via in-person or virtual consultations. The logo is designed to simulate clear delineation and order.

STATIONERY: To coordinate with the logo, the client also received a customized set of icons to symbolize various organizational endeavors. The business card and letterhead make use of those icons to demonstrate the range of services offered in an interesting visual way.

The site was designed for the Thesis theme/framework for WordPress. VISIT COMPLETE ORGANIZING SOLUTIONS.

LOGO: My client is an amazing writer who lends her services to businesses who need brilliant marketing copy. She needed a logo that was both dynamic and professional — one that depicted a effective and efficient writer who is also not afraid to take risks to get the job done. I used quotation marks to create a flame emanating from the word “incite.” Visit Write to Incite website.

BUSINESS CARD: This design takes full advantage of the bold color scheme for eye-catching, memorable effect with the flame icon front and center.

FACEBOOK PAGE: The client came back to us a few months after we did her branding work for a Facebook page design to maximize “Likes” and engage with existing and potential clients in a meaningful way. The Facebook page was designed with a welcome video and newsletter signup form to maximize email capture. Visit the Write to Incite Facebook page.
