Absolute Web designed a new site from scratch to replace our 20-year-old site. It was long overdue, and the process was made easy and manageable by Absolute.

App Marketing Review from Manuel Mainetti
With over 5 million users all over Europe, PhotoSì is the number 1 mobile app in Italy for printing photos, photobooks, and other photographic products, and one of the top choices among users in other European countries. Like many market leaders, we faced a well-known challenge when thinking to scale effectively beyond the duopoly, Google and Facebook.
Looking for ways to reinforce even further our branding in Italy and strengthen our positioning in Europe, we approached REPLUG with precise challenges:
1. What acquisition channels should they use to reach their existing audience beyond what the duopoly offered?
2. How could we keep the cost of acquisitions under control without eroding the bottom line?
3. How long would it take for us to effectively scale those new channels?
4. Was there a hidden opportunity in promoting our services to a whole new target audience?
After conducting an audit of our current activities, REPLUG presented us with solutions that focused on:
CONTENT INFLUENCERS STRATEGY: Identifying TikTok as a potential game-changer, REPLUG's marketing team curated a list of content creators to generate user-generated content. This content was then promoted both from PhotoSì and the influencers' accounts (Spark Ads)
CREATIVES & COMMUNICATION A/B TESTING: Their Paid Performance Marketing team created and tested various video content formats iteratively. These tests included combinations of voice-overs, text, CTAs, and music, all aimed at optimizing the Cost-per-Acquisition.
SCALING BUDGET WITHOUT INCREASING THE CPA: REPLUG's approach to paid performance marketing involved continuous refinement of targeting, audiences, creative assets, and content. This allowed us to scale the budget spent to six figures a month on TikTok while maintaining a consistent CPA.
The final results were amazing:
53.9% DECREASE IN CPA
1170% INCREASE IN ROI
363% INCREASE IN REACH
Thanks REPLUG :)

I hired JQ Design Labs to create a simple, professional but unique logo - they came up with something I absolutely love.
I asked them to re-work my website so it was more tailored to the work I want to do from now until I retired. The new website is perfect.
I asked them to design and order business cards that were more modern and easy for seniors to read. They nailed it perfectly.

eCommerce Review from Justin Rothstein
I had the pleasure of working with Anthony and his team at Maximize for the past five years, and I cannot express enough how transformative their work has been for my business. When I first approached Anthony with just an idea sketched on a piece of paper, he quickly demonstrated his expertise and vision. Within three months, he turned my concept into a tangible reality.
From start to finish, Anthony and his team were exceptionally dedicated, working around the clock to ensure that every detail was meticulously addressed. They created an incredible e-commerce platform, expertly designing both the front end and back end, and seamlessly handling all aspects of our marketing.
I couldnt ask for a better company or team to help drive my business forward. The professionalism and commitment displayed by everyone at Maximize are truly commendable. They are always available to assist, regardless of the time of day or even on weekends, making the entire process not only productive but also enjoyable.
I highly recommend Maximize and the amazing people who work there. They are a pleasure to collaborate with, and Im grateful for the significant impact they've had on my business.

We’ve worked with IMP Marketing for our hair care brand for around two years, mostly on ads and email marketing. They really took the time to understand our products and customers, which made their suggestions feel much more useful.
They helped us improve our campaigns, organize our email flows better, and make our marketing feel more consistent overall. I also liked that they cared about the visuals, which is important for a beauty brand, but still kept the focus on results.
The team was responsive, clear, and easy to talk to whenever we had feedback. Overall, we’re really happy with their support.

A brand strategy agency specializes in positioning a company and its products in niche markets to create a positive impression on target customers. In doing so, it improves brand recognition, credibility, and loyalty.
Brand strategy is critical because 88% of consumers find authenticity a key factor when deciding which brands they support. Additionally, businesses with consistent branding report a revenue growth of up to 20%.
Creating a successful brand strategy has unique challenges and difficulties, including:
Audience perception: Businesses need extensive market research and analysis to develop a brand strategy that resonates strongly with audiences.
Competitive Landscape: Differentiating your business in a crowded marketplace is a constant challenge, requiring an innovative brand strategy and a compelling unique selling proposition (USP).
Consistency across channels: Maintaining consistent messaging and branding across various offline and online platforms is crucial for building credibility and powerful brand recall.
Staying relevant: Brands must continually adapt to changing market trends, consumer preferences, and cultural shifts to remain relevant and appeal to their target audience.
Managing brand reputation: With the rise of social media and online reviews, brands need to actively manage their reputation, swiftly addressing negative feedback or crises that may arise.
Globalization: Brands operating in multiple markets must consider cultural nuances and regional preferences to ensure their messaging resonates effectively.
Here’s a case study to illustrate these points. MIND GAMES is a luxury fragrance line that aims to empower customers by reminding them of a time they conquered a challenge or competition. However, the company had a fragmented brand identity and no website, so it hired the brand strategy firm Lounge Lizard.
Lounge Lizard developed a consistent brand story and identity and used these to build a customized eCommerce website for the client. It told the story of each product, created videos and animations, implemented search engine optimization (SEO) strategies, and planned for the brand’s future growth.
Within a month, MIND GAMES recorded 6,200 new users, increased engagement by 93%, and saw a 13% new user growth week-over-week.
What do brand strategy companies do?
A brand strategy company develops and implements customized marketing and advertising strategies to establish a business in a specific market. This includes understanding the business’s unique needs and goals, creating a brand identity and message, and helping define its unique selling proposition (USP).
The various services of a brand strategy firm include the following:
Brand audit
Market research
Visual identity design
Brand strategy development
Brand positioning
Rebranding

How much do brand strategy services cost?
Brand strategy services cost $15,500 minimum for a campaign. The top 50 brand strategy agencies on DesignRush charge an average hourly rate of $142. 21.8% of the agencies accept a minimum project rate of $1,000, and 2.2% accept at least $50,000.
The price can increase if you add brand launch, content marketing, advertising campaign, social media marketing, and other services to your brand strategy package.
Why should I hire a brand strategy agency?
You should hire a brand strategy agency because they have the experience and expertise to effectively position your brand in niche markets, improve customer relationships, and drive long-term business growth. They also have the tools and technology to deliver data-driven insights for your brand.
Leverage branding expertise and experience: Brand strategy firms have the skill and knowledge to develop a unique brand identity, effectively position it in the market, and drive awareness and equity.
Be unforgettable: Stories are 22 times more memorable than facts or statistics. As experts, brand strategy companies are well-versed in telling a brand’s story to ensure it engages target audiences.
Improve customer relationships:66% of consumers value a brand’s trustworthiness, and 30% say they would not use the product of a brand they don’t trust. Aside from creating content and graphics that resonate with target customers, brand strategy agencies include trust markers to improve customer relationships and establish credibility. These include using customer reviews, testimonies, and awards in campaign materials.
Position your business for long-term growth: The world’s top 100 brands have increased their aggregate value by 22% in the past year, totaling $8.7 trillion. Brand strategy firms plan for the long term to ensure your brand remains relevant and at the top of your customer’s minds.
Gain measurable results: Being data-driven is a must for brand strategy agencies. They use data and analytics to understand what’s working and what isn’t and adjust their strategies accordingly to deliver optimal results.
A case study demonstrating the benefits of hiring a brand strategy agency is when Unison Infrastructure worked with Digital Silk. Unison Infrastructure had numerous subsidiaries across Europe and the U.S., but its branding and messaging were inconsistent. Because of this, it had poor brand recognition and target audiences and potential employees could not differentiate it from its competitors.
Digital Silk created a strategic roadmap, aligning Unison Infrastructure’s brand identity with its goals and market positioning. The brand strategy agency also created a branding deck, unified brand architecture, and a new logo that connected the main brand with its subsidiaries.
Within six months, Unison Infrastructure enhanced brand visibility by 11.76%, increased retention rates by 146.91%, and improved user experience (UX) by 26.29%.
How do I choose the best brand strategy firm?
You can choose the best brand strategy firm that meets your needs by following these steps:
Define your business needs: Do you need a brand strategy to launch or push a particular product or for the entire business? Outline your vision for your brand, your ideal target customers, specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals, budget, and timeline.
Conduct market research: Know your customer’s preferences and see how competing businesses brand themselves. Create a list of dos and don’ts for your own brand strategy and collect campaign examples that you want to emulate.
Search for potential partners: Look at online rankings, articles, and marketing directories for potential brand strategy firms. Focus on those with relevant experience in your industry and have handled your target customers.
Consider the type of service you want: Some brand strategy companies are more research-oriented, while others are design-focused. Shortlist agencies that will provide your required services and align with your goals and vision.
Think about agency size: A boutique agency can be more affordable and flexible. In contrast, a big brand strategy firm can provide more comprehensive branding and marketing services.
Review their credentials: Check client testimonials, online reviews, case studies, portfolio, and awards and recognitions to gain insight into their approach, work ethic, and proven experience. Prioritize those with a clear process and deliver measurable results.
Send a request for proposal (RFP): Outline your project requirements to your shortlisted brand strategy agencies. See if their response demonstrates a clear understanding of your brand and what you need.
Schedule an interview: Ask questions about the expertise and experience of the agency and how well they understand your industry and branding vision. Prioritize agencies that align with your values and show that they are invested in your brand’s success.
Understand their communication style: Observe if the agency responds to your inquiries quickly, values your input, encourages collaboration, and takes time to understand your needs and wants. Because you are building your brand together, you should choose an agency that acts like a true partner.
Choose your agency: Once decided, contact the brand strategy agency and discuss project details, contract terms, and payment plans.
