The City of Antioch, located in Northern California, was settled before the Gold Rush. In 2018, they decided it was time to rebrand. So they engaged Evviva.ChallengeOne consequence of the 2008 collapse was that the City of Antioch became closely-associated with a collapse in home values. By 2016, the City had turned several important corners. Unfortunately, this the media didn’t notice. Antioch remained a talking point, but the most common media pick-ups were related to crime, blight, homelessness and low-cost housing. Process
The City we met was divided. It was economically split between “well-off” vs. “getting by," geographically split north vs. south, divided by recency, by perspective, by levels of contentment, and even by time spent in the city itself. As a result of all of these divisions, residents were committed to their City but deeply frustrated with the state of affairs. Importantly, we found a strong, positive theme: opportunity was everywhere, and avaliable to all. This insight led us to a new strapline for the City and as a campaign line to drive awareness about what’s best about Antioch: “Opportunity Lives Here.” The campaign targeted business and lifestyle targets. With integrated programmatic planning, we launched the new brand across a variety of digital and OOH channels.Results
The campaign was a huge success for Antioch:

QUALICO Commercial is a leading commercial development company in North America working to create more liveable, commumnity-driven spaces that bring people together and foster economic growth.QUALICO approached Massive in August of 2018 to help craft a brand for its RiverView development in Edmonton; a commercial development serving some 50,000 new residents in the area.
Brand Strategy
Like all great brands, the Riverview brand needed to speak to––and reflect––those in the community it represents. It also required a flexible design system that could be applied across various mediums and campaigns.
Brand Concepts
Through independent research, stakeholder and user interviews, Massive's Strategists and Designers identified three different customer types, each one targetting a different group. Our initial brand concepts centred around each of these personas.
The Result
In the end, Riverview selected an elegant, simple logo with a playful, dynamic colour palette. It's early yet, keep your eyes open in 2019 and beyond for the new Riverview brand to be rolled out.

The Eco-Flex mailer gave the target audience plenty to think about and look at too – delivering a high number of enquiries to dealers on the Vauxhall network. Once again interloopmailer® proved itself to work exceptionally well for promoting advanced technology products.

The best branding agency helps define your business’s mission, products, services, core values, and personality.
A brand is presented across many platforms, including:
To create an effective brand, top branding agencies:
This consistent presentation that the best branding companies create helps consumers identify your business and products more readily and create a human-like connection with your business.
This is crucial to long-term business success. A consistent presentation can increase revenue by 23% and 94% of consumers are more likely to be loyal to brands that offer transparency.
This one is simple! Essentially, a brand is your business’s personality that helps consumers identify you and connect with you. Branding is the process you take to create that identity.
Brands should have consistent aesthetic styles, copywriting tone, imagery, color palettes, and more across all platforms. A brand is typically highlighted by one iconic visual moniker – aka the logo.
Meanwhile, businesses can undergo branding – which creates a brand for the first time – or rebranding, which revises or improves an existing brand to make it more effective.
The cost of a branding campaign largely depends on how much work needs to be done within the project.
For instance, if you need a company name, a brand-new logo and have many platforms that this design needs to be distributed on, a top branding firm could cost you anywhere from $23,000 to $250,000 or more.
However, if you just need a new logo, your costs could drop to $3500 to $150,000, give or take.
In general, companies can expect to spend the following amounts on the best branding firm campaigns:
Conversely, you could pay for your branding agency hourly.
For example, top branding agencies that are based in the United States cost about $125-$200 per hour per person or more. However, Eastern European branding companies charge around $35-$75 per hour per person.
A brand consultancy is simply a different approach to branding.
Instead of communicating a brand’s benefits, values and “personality” to potential consumers, brand consultancy experts recommend taking an extended amount of time studying the target audience’s mind.
Then, after you have a strong grasp of your demographic’s mindset – such as the “why” behind their consumer decisions – you can strategically craft your brand and messaging to be planted in the minds of your potential consumers.
Basically, brand consultancy adds a layer of psychology in the research phase and creates more branded content solely for the user.
Those who adhere to the brand consultancy ideology believe that it highlights their brand’s positive features while weakening the competition’s. Brand consultancies can also be helpful in crafting large-scale brand strategy, branded marketing campaigns and more.
But remember – don’t confuse brand consultancy with a brand consultant. A brand consultant is simply a branding expert that can advise your business on various branding initiatives.
Prior to approaching any branding agencies, take a moment and define your goals internally.
Understanding which objectives you need to reach is the key to choosing the best branding firm for your needs because it will help you find the creative branding agency that offers the services you need to succeed.
Then, inquire about how the top branding companies plan to fully understand and develop your identity and translate that to a successful brand identity.
Look at both the agency's professional portfolio and client list as well as the possible team members who will be working with your company.
This will give you stronger insight into the actual designs that a creative branding agency can create, campaigns that the top branding companies can execute and results they can deliver.
At the end of the day, when you enlist the best branding agency, you’re paying for a strong return on investment.
Although it may be hard to look past a high upfront cost, take the time to understand the business growth possibilities before you sign a contract.
Do your homework, ask in-depth questions, understanding the pricing tiers and ensure you have a strong grasp of each employee's expertise and work history.
The following questions will help you discover a branding company’s expertise, previous experience, and learn whether or not the best branding companies will provide a good return on investment.
Check out DesignRush’s list of top-rated branding companies above and compare branding firms by experience, leadership, cost, case studies and more.
