Constructive Reviews & Testimonials
Clea Bierman
Director of Digital Marketing at Blue Meridan Partners
5.0★
WordPress Website Design Review from Clea Bierman
Blue Meridian Partners has worked with Constructive as our website design and development partner for more than eight years. During that time, they have played a significant role in shaping our digital presence and helping bring our brand to life online. What I've appreciated most is Constructive's ability to balance creativity with stewardship. They have consistently found thoughtful ways to push our brand forward when innovation was needed, while also respecting and working intelligently within established brand guidelines. Their team understands how to translate complex ideas into engaging digital experiences. Across dozens of projects, I've worked with three different project managers, and each has been highly accountable and genuinely enjoyable to partner with. The relationships have been professional, collaborative, and built on trust. We've also had several occasions where creative projects required significant work on very tight timelines with little notice, and Constructive consistently found a way to deliver. Like any long-term partnership, navigating complex websites and evolving organizational needs requires ongoing communication and attention. What has kept us coming back year after year is Constructive's commitment to partnership, their willingness to solve problems alongside us, and the care they bring to our mission. I am grateful for their contributions to Blue Meridian's growth and would confidently recommend Constructive to organizations looking for a thoughtful, mission-driven digital agency.
Robert Espinoza
Former EVP of Policy at PHI
5.0★
Nonprofits Review from Robert Espinoza
Constructive built PHIs website back in 2017-2018 and, in many ways, they have been with the organization ever since. Over almost eight years, they've grown alongside PHI rather than simply maintaining a site. PHI is a national nonprofit working at the intersection of research, policy, and workforce interventions on the direct care workforce, and a lot of what we do is complicated. Constructive's remarkable team has had a real knack for turning that complexity into something clear, usable, and genuinely engaging online.
Some of the things I'm most proud of from our partnership like our worker story gallery, our national resource center on direct care workers, and our online index came out of that collaboration. These weren't just features; they became core parts of how we tell our story and share our work with advocates, policymakers, and practitioners.
What made Constructive stand out was how invested they were in our mission. They were creative and technically excellent, yes but more than that, they showed up as a true partner. We didn't experience them as a vendor so much as an extension of our team. I would absolutely recommend them to any nonprofit or social impact organization looking for a thoughtful, dependable digital partner.

Communications Director at Center for Family Representation

Nonprofits Review from Diana Denza, MPA
The Center for Family Representation worked with Constructive on a year-long rebranding process that overhauled our logo, colors, website, and all of our marketing collateral. As a result of this process, we now have a brand that truly represents our organization and the work we do for low-income NYC families. Constructive was highly responsive and professional throughout the process, working with us to ensure that every element of the rebranding felt just right.

Our first engagement with Twenty Ideas was accurately scoped and allocated from day one, and that was impressive.

The most impressive thing was the collaboration we established. I had been creating this app by myself for so long, and all of a sudden, I had a whole team of thought partners. Twenty Ideas really got in there with me, learned what I was trying to make, and collaborated with me on it. It was an extremely rewarding experience, and we're thrilled with the app!

I started working with Twenty Ideas in a part-time consulting capacity, but I became so taken with the team’s passion, mission, and supportive culture, that I ended up applying for a full-time position. I’ve been with the team for three and a half years now, and it’s given opened doors to expand my skill set; work with smart, kind, and dedicated people, every day; and work with clients who truly care about making a positive impact, to create life-changing solutions together. It’s a great place to work!

Mystic Media has been excellent to work with, offered great value, and their expertise and project management has been evident throughout the development process. We hired Mystic to take an idea and concept drawings through UI/UX and graphic design, programming and development, all the way to the market. They have met or exceeded all milestones, even with significant additions to scope along the way. We're currently in beta testing before release, and we are very satisfied with the entire experience. Mystic has earned my unqualified endorsement for anyone looking to develop their first app with them, as we have done.

Roberto Aponte's Review Sourced from Google
I am thoroughly pleased with your companies ability to deliver an exceptional working relationship that has lead to an eloquently executed client experience. Isadora Digital Agency took a much-needed concierge approach to our relationship and helped us define our goals as well as align the expectations of the officers of our company. Our needs and vision were sophisticated but you helped us to achieve our vision through a multitude of legal and compliance challenges while still creating a warm and textured environment for our clients to engage with us. There have been multiple occasions the agency has gone exceptionally above and beyond to make this project a success – had we partnered with some of the other 9 design companies we were engaged with, I don’t feel confident that they would have provided the white glove service that we received from your firm. Let me summarize: Isadora delivers enterprise style service and results with the client engagement and human interaction of a boutique firm.

It's a team of exceptionally talented and professional folks who are passionate about their work and very serious its quality. The company has many long-term, happy customers that are important players in their industries. ImageX is an active member of the Drupal community so it regularly sponsors and organizes Drupal events. The team is very inclusive — it welcomes and respects diverse cultures. Despite the long distances between the company's offices (in Canada, Brazil, and Ukraine), the atmosphere is family-like and warm. You can always feel the team's support, friendliness, and respect.

Our company has been working with Massive and the Cadence team on a go-to-market strategy and have been so happy with the results. They've helped us craft an amazing brand campaign and set up photoshoots and videoshoots. They've also helped us with our SEO and running our Google and Meta ads. The entire team is so helpful and creative, and you can tell they have a passion for what they're doing. We really enjoy working with them and would recommend them highly!

We have just launched a fresh new version of our program website and could not be happier with the web design + development by the team at Massive. From start to finish, Lucy our project manager was there to link us to the work of the rest of her team. Our questions were addressed in a timely manner and the folks at Massive also extended internal deadlines to meet our needs. We really felt heard, and appreciated the time the team took to learn about us and our work, they made it very safe for us to “hand over the keys”. The whole design process was a great experience for our team and together we built a site that exceeded our expectations.

Dawn and her team are absolute powerhouses. They bring serious brainpower to all the complex digital areas I don’t fully understand—and they make it feel effortless. What sets them apart is how they build solid digital foundations: not just making things look good, but ensuring everything under the hood works to drive performance. There’s no point in having a pretty website if there are no mechanics beneath it—and that’s where they shine. Strategic, smart, and standout in every way!

Holt Group Inc.'s Review Sourced from Google
Watson has been a key strategic partner for us on the creative and brand side since the beginning. We've worked with various members across the team and every member of their staff brings excellence and authentic passion to what they do. They have consistently delivered an end product that excites our customers, adding special creative touches along the way so that the results really sing. The way they're able to translate our vision and mission into deliverables across each project has been a weight off our shoulders. Not every creative agency is able to understand the nuances of our industry and we've been so impressed with the time team Watson has taken to really get to know our industry in homebuilding. We've worked with Watson on deliverables such as high level creative direction, but also getting into the nitty gritty of developing content around our warranty program. This was a huge task and they matched us with exactly the right team members to bring it to life who truly cared about getting it right. They're great friends as much as they are our business partners. We highly recommend partnering with Watson Creative.

S Nash's Review Sourced from Google
When we engaged Watson to help us rebrand, we knew it was going to be a challenging process. We had a long-standing reputation as a respected law firm in Portland, but we wanted our brand to reflect our unique culture and the innovative approach we bring to our clients. Watson's team was thorough and thoughtful throughout the entire process, from primary research interviews with our team to the final custom, hand-drawn identity system. The end result was a brand that not only represents who we are as a firm but also sets us apart from our competitors. We continue to receive compliments on our branding years later, and we credit Watson for helping us achieve that success.

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.
