Digital Advertising Review from Michael Kleinmann
So many "Agencies" claim they can take your business to 8 figures but if you've ever hired an agency, you know that most of this is just hype. Evestar is the first agency that we've worked with that can back up their claims and actually scale a business. They've been pivotal scaling one of our clients to mid 8 figures, across all acquisition channels. Most interesting is their holistic approach across the entire business - not just looking at Meta but getting into the weeds on all of the building blocks that make a business work and scale. Overall, we've had a great experience, which is why we have numerous clients that we refer to Evestar and collaborate on with them.

Digital Advertising Review from J.R. Hecker
We have been working with Evestar for over 7 months now and have been VERY impressed with them! We had been working with a previous agency which after 6 months had added zero value to our bottom line and had in fact even cost us more money than we had been making before. Within just 3 months of partnering with Evestar we immediately began to see our bottom line increasing! They take great care in what they do and invest in our company as if it were their own! I couldn't recommend them more highly and have been very impressed with their offerings
From website design, to media buying, to creative content to overall agency management. Everything they do is top notch!

Nonprofit Review from Paige Lewis Sandford
The Miller group is a committed, savvy and creative partner who can look at a situation and break it down into a realistic strategy.
We hired The Miller Group to help us get clearer on our strategy for our non profit's membership program. We had premium and free levels, and we needed help understanding what drove interest in joining and staying as a premium member. In summary, we needed to better understand what our target audience understood about and wanted from each of the membership levels. Renee and her team helped us do quantitative and qualitative research and to develop strategies to acquire new premium members. They successfully delivered hard data analyses and suggestions to help us implement different strategies including recommending a new positioning for us. The team helped us understand how to position free versus premium memberships and identify the key drivers for the different audience groups.
The Miller Group understood our needs and excelled in their creative approach to devising solutions. Overall, they were accessible, collaborative, well-organized and a strategic partner.

We just used them in changing the name of Goshen Interfaith Hospitality Network to First Light Mission. They took the time to really get to know us as an organization and worked hard to come up with a name and logo that speaks of who we are. Amazing company!

Ramez and his team designed a complete over hall of my website when I sold my marketing agency and went into consulting. It is sleek, professional and makes me look good. I'm very happy with the outcome.

I needed someone to move my website over from Wordpress to Shopify and communicated with several providers. Ramez from Lightspace Creative responded very quickly and was very polite and gave out a very positive vibe. His quote was a bit out of my budget but I decided to go with Ramez because he asked all the right questions and put me at ease. I was pleasantly surprised when at the end of the project, Ramez came back and told me he had completed the job in a fraction of the time. He was quick and efficient and in the end, completed the job well within my budget. My website looks great and works marvelously! After he was done with the project, I had some questions about the website, and Ramez took the time to answer them (and so politely too!). I've already recommended Lightspace Creative to several friends for their website needs.

What a great creative team. OGK stepped up and knocked it out of the park time and time again! Everything they touched and worked on for our brand was on point and performed beyond expectations. Probably the most impressive group of talented and creative individuals I have ever had the pleasure to work with! If you are looking for a local agency with the talent and experience to fire up your company or brand, OGK should be first on your list of agencies you consider.

We've worked closely with OGK on a number of marketing and creative projects for our clients and they have always exceeded our expectations at every turn. Chris, Craig, and the rest of the team at OGK have been such a pleasure to work with over the years and have added a lot of value to our operations. I couldn't give a higher recommendation to this team of dedicated, creative, and hard working people. Looking forward to working with them for years to come.

Mindy Flanigan's Review Sourced from Google
We turned to Advante, to complement and add capacity to the marketing team already in place, for one of the services featured on their website: trackable actions that help you make marketing budget decisions with confidence.
In short, Advante delivered. Their team did an outstanding job supporting our marketing team, who had a solid grasp of our website but hadn’t yet fully integrated it with our CRM—or fully leveraged CTA forms, data, and automation.
We’d been using HubSpot for three years, and I had a feeling we were missing opportunities. Advante proved that hunch right. They connected the dots, righted the ship, and exceeded our expectations. Organized, skilled, dedicated, and professional—we highly recommend.

Our experience with Advante has been nothing short of wonderful.
Upon our intial meeting they understood our processes and desired outcome. Then upon engaging we received superior deliverables. Nothing short of wonderful working with them.
If you desire honest and fair treatment then you should certainly consider Advante BCS. Thank you to their team.

I am so very happy with Advante BCS! They do amazing work! I absolutely love my website and how user friendly it is. I get many compliments on this. The staff respond to my questions and/or needs the same day I email them. The marketing tools they use for my business have been a huge success! My business has grown so much and I credit a good amount of that success to Advante BCS. I couldn’t be happier!
I started with Advante BCS when I first started my company and was thrilled with the original website they built. There was not anything I did not like about working with this.Thenjoined a networking group and was encouraged to use the business services provided within the group.
Foolishly, I made the switch to another company who was part of my networking group and they dropped the ball on many important items. I came back to Advante and they cleaned things up very, very quickly. My business is moving forward once again! I will never depart from this wonderful company again! I highly recommend this company to anyone who is serious about growing their business!

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
Brand launch
Omnichannel marketing
Branded campaigns and promotions
Brand workshop
Advertising campaigns
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.
