      Our experience working with Andrew and his team at Special Sauce was excellent. We wanted to do a brand refresh and custom website for our company and they made the process very streamlined. Their communication was fantastic and we are so pleased with our new design and website. Shoutout to Liz as she really worked to accomodate any changes we wanted. We would recommend Special Sauce and will use them in the future!

      I’ve worked with Andrew and his team at Special Sauce across multiple brands and stages over the last eight years, including al fresco and ButcherBox, and he consistently brings clarity and momentum to complex brand work. He gets up to speed quickly, builds trust with senior stakeholders, and translates strategy into messaging and design that holds up in market. His work helps brands evolve without losing who they are, and that shows up in both the thinking and the execution.

      We went looking for a new company to re-design our website. We have been down this road before and it's impossible to figure out who's the best fit. We interviewed at least 5-10 agency company's and independent contractors. League came out on top with the best vision that we were looking for. Great work, great design, great cost. Overall, very pleased and will continue to do business and follow-up work.

      Branding Review from Abby Smith, TMP

      Our business has been working with id8 since late 2023, and their team has always been timely, organized and professional. The first time they unveiled our new logo, it was like Christmas morning! Since then, we've worked with them on complex projects like building a new website, coordinating photo shoots and updating signage for our office. Those are just a few of the things they have done for us, and they have always been so thoughtful and diligent in how they approach each project. Their approach is rooted in research and data, so we can feel confident we are making the right choices. Our meetings are always fun and lively, because the whole team is so personable. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with them!

      I have been working with Id8 for a few years now and it has been a truly wonderful experience. The team consistently goes above and beyond to accommodate our needs and is always brainstorming new ideas to elevate our marketing and branding presence. They are incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. Id8 has become a trusted ally for our company and we look forward to continuing our partnership with them.

      Adam N's Review Sourced from Google

      id8 was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had coordinated with Brandi on getting a new logo made for multiple avenues I wanted to pursue and she was able to help me design a logo/brand that I'm totally in love with. From the very beginning and all the way to the end, she was always able to deliver, provide feedback and execute stunning design options that were all so good. She was also able to take my logo/branding goals of being versatile and transforming those ideas into concepts that spoke volume. Though making a decision on just one design out of a couple was hard in the end, I eventually went with one that had the best look and feel that represented what my brand needed to be. I would highly recommend id8 for any graphic design work as they are awesome at creating designs that have a deeper philosophical meaning that will make anyone appreciate the reasonings behind what they create.

      Web Design Review from Julian Thiers

      Peppermint helped us redesigning Payfree's website and web apps from the ground up. Their work included a fresh visual identity, UX/UI design and custom graphics explaining how our RFID platform supports checkout and store operations. What impressed us most was that they approached the project not only as a design task, but as a positioning challenge. They translated a technical, integration-heavy product into a clear and approachable story for retail, operations and IT decision-makers. Amazing work. The collaboration was smooth and well organized. Deadlines were met, feedback was implemented quickly and potential issues were raised early. The result gives us a strong and consistent foundation for our website, sales materials, marketing and outreach. We would gladly work with Peppermint again and do so on a regular basis.

      After over a decade struggling with an old website that was ugly and difficult to manage, Stirling worked with us to create a beautiful, modern, branded website AND taught us how to manage and maintain it. Their friendly and knowledgeable team helped us imagine what our new web presence could look like and allowed us to weigh in at every step to customize the design so it best reflected our Library. They were organized and responsive throughout the entire process. We couldn't be more happy with our choice to go with Stirling and our amazing finished product!

      Working with the Stirling team was a fantastic experience. They were communicative and collaborative. Their energy and enthusiasm made them a joy to work with and their skill and creativity assured that we got a unique one of a kind website, rather than a "out of the box" readymade product.

      Mark Spencer's Review Sourced from Google

      I am sad to say that I do not share the enthusiasm of the other reviewers. Mr. Stirling did an excellent job of marketing his services and prompting me to call. My company had contracted with another company to build a new website and never finished it. After some discussion with Thomas, he estimated the cost to finish was $2000. I have the agreement that states this. Unfortunately, $2000 ended up fixing one page only. He claimed that there were too many broken links to finish the job. Of course he was happy to continue work for a lot more money. Rather than insist that he finish it for the original amount agreed upon, I simply requested that we do our best on our end and that we ask a question or two as we progressed. Mr. Sterling became belligerent and accused me of trying to wangle free services. He then shut down our website (fortunately not live) until we paid in full. I will say that the staff under Mr. Sterling were delightful to work with. Unfortunately the unprofessional attitude of their boss made for a terrible experience.

      I've worked on a few video and multimedia projects with Serenity now. Brian's passion and diligence always inspires confidence. I can rest assured that my vision will be realized, with some helpful guidance to make sure the result is professional and up to date. The personal attention and efficiency of a small studio is perfect for my needs, and I plan to turn their skills on an overhaul of my website soon. I highly recommend Serenity Studios!

      Working with Serenity Studios was such a positive experience. Brian and his team were able to capture the company, the team and who we are as a brand in two successful company videos. I was impressed with their creativity and vision for the video. Everything from planning to shooting to production was done with professionalism. They truly made the entire experience fun. We love to recommend them to colleagues and clients.

Hiring Guide: How to Choose the Best Branding Agency in the US

How much do US businesses invest in branding?

Branding budgets in the US typically range from $2,500 for small projects to over $75,000 for large initiatives. Most mid-market companies invest between $20,000 and $50,000 for comprehensive branding work.

92% of marketers plan to maintain or increase spending on brand awareness in 2025, with 13% investing in brand awareness for the first time.

How can I find the right agency on DesignRush that fits my budget?

Our directory features top branding firms across different budget ranges, so you can identify partners that align with your spending expectations.

High budget: $50,000+
  • OWDT
  • MBLM
  • SmashBran
Low budget: $25,000-$50,000
  • Starfish
  • Goji Labs
  • LLT Group

What kind of portfolio should one of these agencies have?

Key elements to look for in a branding agency:

  • Project context: Each case study should explain the client’s industry, business challenges, and goals.
  • Approach & process: Look for a clear narrative of what was done and why, such as research findings or design rationale.
  • Deliverables shown in action: Real examples of the identity applied to websites, packaging, UI, signage, etc.
  • Metrics & results: The best cases highlight measurable impact – e.g. “Unified a fragmented architecture; win-rate up 6 points and sales cycle down 12%.”
  • Before/after comparisons: Side-by-side visuals or messaging evolution with explanations help assess the upgrade’s value.
  • Operational readiness: Check that they deliver usable assets such as real templates with fonts, not just flat mockups, and document styles clearly.

How do agencies measure success in branding?

A branding company in the US measures success by both how the brand is perceived and how it performs in the market:

  • Brand awareness & favorability: Metrics like website traffic, social media followers, mentions, and branded search volume. Consistency drives 10-30% growth in branded search demand.
  • Business impact: Higher win rates, larger deals, better lead conversion, and lower acquisition costs, proven with before-and-after results. For instance, 96% of marketers report that personalized brand experiences increase sales.
  • Adoption & compliance: Internally, they track brand usage, such as the percentage of marketing materials using new guidelines and template usage rates. For example, 85% of organizations have brand guidelines, but only 30% use them.

How do I choose the best branding agencies in the US?

Below are essential steps to guide your decision-making process:

  1. Define your goals for the branding agency
    Clarify what you want to achieve, whether it’s a full brand overhaul or a new product launch. A clear goal makes it easier to evaluate agencies.
  2. Assess your current brand situation
    Review existing assets, messaging, and audience perceptions to identify gaps and determine your needed strategy.
  3. Evaluate industry experience
    Look for agencies with experience in your market to speed up onboarding and ensure familiarity with your target audience.
  4. Examine team structure and seniority
    Ask which team members will work on your account.
  5. Check evidence of results
    Request case studies or examples showing measurable business impact, such as increased awareness, engagement, or revenue.
  6. Consider speed and process
    Assess whether the agency has a mature workflow, clear milestones, and the ability to iterate quickly based on feedback.
  7. Compare pricing and transparency
    Make sure their fees are clear, justified by scope, and fit your budget.
  8. Send a formal RFP
    A good RFP makes it easier to compare agencies objectively, understand their approach, and select the best-fit partner.

What deliverables should businesses expect from a branding company?

A comprehensive branding campaign will hand over all materials needed to apply the new brand:

  • Source files and assets
  • Training and rollout plan

What’s the difference between a brand refresh and a full rebrand?

Brand refresh focuses on updating what you already have. It usually involves light visual changes like refining the logo or colors, without changing the core brand positioning. 

A full rebrand rethinks the brand from the ground up, including positioning, messaging, and often the name and visual identity. This is typically needed after major business changes like a market shift or a merger.
