5.0★
Food & Beverage Review from Brett Dose
Working with Reilly and Scott has been a true pleasure. Their expertise and knowledge of building a brand has been a pivotal step for me bringing my dry Bloody Mary seasoning mix to the retail market. Motif's willingness to work with me, and quality of work is impressive to say the least. I constantly receive compliments on the artwork, packaging, website design, and logo branding.
Working with Motif was one of the smartest decisions I've ever made.

Small Business Review from Wes Arola
Motif took an unconventional approach to supporting my official launch and establishing an identity for my landscape architecture practice. The focus was setting myself apart from the rest, and signaling to potential customers and the general public what I produce, my level of service, and for WHO.
Although the tangibles Motif created were awesome and fueled my launch, I value the advice, conversation and insight they offered from day one to encourage me to really get to know my business.

Motif Brands took all the thoughts and vision I have for the next chapter of my life and made sense of it all. Imagine a bunch of sticky notes and Reilly pieced them all together! He saw a vision beyond my own and provided additional thoughts and direction to make the path ahead possible. The business strategy services Motif Brands provides are top notch. He created my website 10+ years ago for my last chapter, I recommend both services. Plus Reilly's a cool guy!

Agency Squid Reviews & Testimonials
Shira S

Branding Review from Shira S
We partnered with Agency Squid to refine and elevate our brand identity for a SaaS platform in the B2B space. Operating in a competitive landscape, we needed strong positioning, messaging clarity, and a compelling visual presence to stand out.
From the very beginning, the Agency Squid team demonstrated a deep understanding of our market, challenges, and goals. They asked the right questions, offered valuable strategic insights, and walked us through a structured branding process that was both collaborative and efficient.
The outcome was a refreshed brand strategy that clearly communicates our core value, differentiators, and relevance to our target audience. We received high-impact messaging frameworks and creative assets that are now integrated into our website, sales materials, and marketing campaigns.
What we appreciated most was their thoughtful, ego-free approach and consistent responsiveness. Every milestone was met on time, and they were always open to feedback, ensuring we were aligned throughout the project.
This branding work has already improved our sales conversations, marketing performance, and overall brand perception. It was a seamless and professional experience, and were excited to continue working with Agency Squid in the future.

Agency Squid is truly unlike any other ad agency out there. There is no ego involved and they listen to what their clients needs are while still challenging them to think about things differently. The smaller but mighty team is well rounded and each bring a different perspective to the table. I would recommend them for any design/marketing, product promotion or special project. Doesn’t hurt that their workplace is so cool too!

Allyson Burroughs
Vice President, Brand, Digital, and Communications at Ricoh North America
5.0★
Integrated Marketing Review from Allyson Burroughs
I had the pleasure of working with Modo Modo Agency in 2022, when I was responsible for the complete renovation of Ricoh North America's brand narrative and visual design system, across all channels and all audiences. There were three immediately necessary elements - 1) internal communications materials about the overhaul of the brand narrative in order to build trust and enthusiasm internally for the new strategic direction of the company, 2) recruitment marketing assets to attract new talent to the organization very rapidly, and 3) go-to-market assets for multiple vertical industries where Ricoh was strategically focused on specific levels of growth.
Modo Modo Agency helped me lead the charge by generating extremely valuable internal communications materials, visual design system assets, manager and leadership guides and more to help with evangelizing internally the evolved brand narrative and the new strategic plan set forth by the CEO. They also created a significant number recruitment marketing assets for a number of digital channels to help build excitement around the brand, attract talent, and encourage employment applications for the significant number of open positions the company needed to fill. Lastly, we worked closely on GTM initiatives across paid and owned channels for the specific vertical industries Ricoh had identified in their strategic growth plan.
The team is strategic, focused on meeting business objectives, and delivering on the critical KPIs of each program. Modo Modo Agency stepped in quickly, delivered smart, well-executed, and effective assets for all the audiences and channels we needed to address. I would enthusiastically recommend them and would most definitely hire them again.

David Epps's Review Sourced from Google
This is our first year at Peach Bowl, Inc. working with Modo Modo. In fact, we're literally months into our business relationship.
I'll be able to provide a more thorough review later, but we have found Modo Modo to be an intensely engaged agency. They have very talented people in the design chairs and the account management team. They've been extremely responsive in terms of learning how we like to work, and reacting accordingly.
We made the decision to leave one agency and sign on with Modo Modo, and the best thing I can say at this point is that we are not disappointed in our decision. We've seen and are expecting top-shelf work from them.

My husband and I own a start up and have worked with Aly, Justin, and Austin at Clique for a complete rebranding and website redesign and are now working with Jeff for continuous marketing and managing our ad spend. I can’t say enough good things about this team and this company. They are creative, innovative, dedicated, and they CARE. They treat our business as their own, asking thoughtful questions and guiding us through our growth. Our new site visits have conversion rates have skyrocketed, doing daily numbers that our old site and unstructured marketing did in months. I can’t say thank you enough to this team.

LiveBits developed a WordPress website for my boutique store, and I must say they delivered exactly what I had in mind. The design was clean, responsive, and user-friendly. They also helped me set up essential plugins for SEO and security. Communication was smooth, and they kept me updated throughout. My favorite part was their willingness to go the extra mile with small tweaks post-launch. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a professional yet affordable WordPress site.

I feel like they are the best "hub" to go to when it comes to connecting to people, non-profits, for-profits, public officials, all communities, I really can just sit here and list things off my head for a long time. It really is amazing how rooted they are in the city of Houston and beyond. Strongly recommend for you or your organization to reach out to Outreach Strategists. It still amazes me how creative they can be when it comes to almost anything. I know that sounds so broad, but that is how knowledgeable the people are here. If you need to connect to people or the public, they will get you connected.

6 Frequently Asked Questions About Creative Companies
What services do creative agencies offer?
Creative agencies offer services that help define how brands are perceived in the market. Core creative services include:
Market research and audience insights: Understanding target audiences, competitors, and market positioning to guide creative decisions.
Brand strategy and identity: Defining brand positioning, messaging, tone of voice, and visual identity, including logos, color palettes, and typography.
Advertising and campaign creative: Developing concepts and assets for paid media, social campaigns, email marketing, digital ads, and other promotional channels.
Content and copywriting: Writing brand messaging, campaign copy, website copy, taglines, and editorial content that support marketing goals.
Video and motion content: Producing scripts, storyboards, photography, video, animation, and editing for brand storytelling and campaigns.
Web design and digital experiences: Designing websites, landing pages, and user experiences, with some agencies also offering web development support.
Other creative services include photography, print production, experiential design, app design, and ongoing creative retainers. The exact scope depends on whether the creative firm specializes in branding, content, digital marketing, or full-service creative support.
What is the difference between a creative company and a marketing agency?
A creative company centers on how a brand looks, sounds, and feels through brand identity, messaging, design, storytelling, and creative production.
On the other hand, a marketing agency focuses on how a brand reaches its audience through campaigns, channels, and performance optimization. Here is a side-by-side comparison for clarity:
Creative Companies
Marketing Agencies
Focus
Building brand identity, consistency, and audience connection
Driving awareness, traffic, leads, conversions, and revenue
Services
Brand strategy, visual identity, graphic design, video production, website design, copy and creative development
SEO, paid media, email marketing, social media management, influencer marketing, public relations, content marketing, analytics
Output
Logos, brand systems, creative concepts, websites, videos, and campaign assets
Media plans, campaign execution, lead generation, reporting, and channel performance insights
While they are distinct disciplines, they often overlap. Many creative companies offer marketing support, and many marketing agencies include creative services as part of their packages.
How much do creative firms charge for their services?
Creative firms charge between $100-$200 per hour or $800-$8,000 per project. The final cost will depend on service type and scope, design complexity, turnaround time, and firm location.
Estimated price range by engagement model:
Hourly rate: $100-$200 per hour
Pricing tier: $2,500-$7,500 per month for small projects like social media posts and email marketing templates. However, larger, more complex projects can cost $25,000-$100,000 per month, such as global, multi-channel campaigns.
Project-based pricing: $800-$8,000 per project
Commission-based pricing: 10%-30% of the profit or sales
Approximate costs per creative service type:
Logo design: $1,000-$2,5000 per project
Comprehensive branding: $16,000-$60,000+ per project
Web design: $5,000-$200,000+ per project
Marketing collateral: $500-$2,500+ per project
How long do creative projects typically take?
Creative projects can take anywhere between 1 week and over 4 months. The actual timeline depends on the service type, production complexity, and revision cycle. Here is what to expect:
Logo design: 2-5 weeks
Comprehensive branding: 1-3 months
Graphic design: ~1 week for custom illustrations and infographics

When should you hire a creative agency, and when should you keep it in-house?
The answer depends on your goals, budget, timeline, and internal capabilities.
Consider hiring a creative agency if:
You need to launch or refresh a brand, product, or campaign quickly, but lack internal expertise or bandwidth.
Creative work is pulling your team away from core business priorities.
You need specialized skills, such as branding, video production, campaign concepting, or web design.
You are planning a large, multi-channel, or multi-market campaign that your internal team cannot support alone.
You want an outside perspective or fresh creative direction.
Keep creative projects in-house if:
The work is routine, low in complexity, or recurring, such as templated social posts, simple presentations, or basic collateral updates.
You already have a trusted internal team with the right design, content, or marketing capabilities.
The work requires close day-to-day collaboration and fast turnaround across departments.
Your product, audience, or market is highly specialized, and success depends on deep internal knowledge.
