Brand Strategy Review from John Gamble
Starfish helped us create our new brand, including a new logo, brand identity and brand guidelines as well as a new company culture (vision, mission, values, and behaviors). Tenet undertook a thorough discovery process involving quantitative and qualitative research, data gathering, a competitive analysis, interviews of internal and external stakeholders, and surveys, which informed the creative process.

Web Development Review from Zac Henderson
The Glide team that we worked with was fantastic. We were on a tight schedule, and they made it work. We are very happy with the new site and feel lucky to have worked with Glide.
Madeline was especially a joy to work with. She personable, efficient and really cared about getting the project done right.

Website Redesign Review from Anissa Munoz
We had a fantastic experience partnering with Glide to redesign our website. From the very beginning, their team showed a genuine interest in understanding the mission and work of the Center for Child Protection. This thoughtful approach allowed them to tailor the site better to meet the needs of our diverse audiences.
Their expertise in web design was evident throughout the process, and they worked closely with us to ensure the final product was impactful and user-friendly. Having Paola as our Project Manager was a huge asset—she kept everything on track and ensured we met all of our deadlines on both sides.
We were especially impressed by Glide’s passion for supporting nonprofits, which aligns with their values as a certified B Corporation. It made the collaboration even more meaningful.

Website Redesign Review from Reba Collins
We loved working with GLIDE! The project team was fantastic and very easy to work with. We had some thoughts around how we wanted to see our brand reflected on the website, and GLIDE did a great job at taking all those thoughts and bringing them to life with fresh ideas and a beautiful, cohesive design. We also really appreciate GLIDE's commitment to working with nonprofits; our project was done on time and on budget. They've continued to provide us with great support on the live site, and we look forward to working with them on any future needs.

Our non-profit worked with True Fit Marketing worked with True Fit Marketing to update and rebrand one of our event websites. Their team was attentive, creative, and really went the extra mile to present and implement ideas we hadn't even considered. We are grateful to the True Fit Marketing team, their vision, and execution; and we look forward to working with them as we continue to grow this event to other locations.

I've been working with True Fit Marketing for a few years and couldn't be happier. Recently, they suggested a fresh website update might be a good idea. We got to creating the new website and even a NEW logo color. Their team is so talented at what they do, so we just trusted them throughout the process. We couldn't be happier with the final product. Highly recommend!!!

My business is called Oasis Senior Advisors in the Pittsburgh area and I really like working with Arlea and the team at True Fit. They are very responsive with emails and are constantly looking to get more visibility with my Facebook page. They are very good with helping me with Facebook posts and are always looking for ways to post videos of me out and about in the community. We have monthly or every other month meetings to review statistics of google searches and how we've performed online as well as talk about what's coming in the future that they can help with. A very strong group and look forward to continuing to work with them.

I feel like they are the best "hub" to go to when it comes to connecting to people, non-profits, for-profits, public officials, all communities, I really can just sit here and list things off my head for a long time. It really is amazing how rooted they are in the city of Houston and beyond. Strongly recommend for you or your organization to reach out to Outreach Strategists. It still amazes me how creative they can be when it comes to almost anything. I know that sounds so broad, but that is how knowledgeable the people are here. If you need to connect to people or the public, they will get you connected.

The people at Nonfiction are amazing! Their team not only designed our logo, but helped us create a brand and have been there to guide us on how to grow and mold our brand identity as we’ve grown. They’re always there to support us on new projects or ideas, and are a wonderfully talented group of people. I highly recommend them for all your design needs!

Neil, Jeff and the whole Nonfiction team are incredible brand strategists, and design experts. I personally have worked with them a number of times, and they are my go-to for branding and brand extension work. They rise to the challenge every single time, and it's always with creative solutions that not only solve the original goals of the project, but are pragmatic, and help marketers move their businesses forward. If you're a brand marketer looking to infuse innovation, creative thinking, and people focused ideas into your brand marketing efforts, this is THE agency to bring it to life alongside you.

Neil, Jeff, and the team at Nonfiction have been great to work with! We’ve been with them since they formed the company, and there’s nowhere else we would go for our design and branding work. They’ve been great at guiding us and keeping us grounded to our core values when we get excited by something that is likely a distraction. We love them!

What are the average project timelines?
Project timelines vary between agencies, but branding is typically a multi-week effort.
Industry examples:
Quick brand refresh: 8-12 weeks
Full brand (re)launch: 12-24 weeks (3-6 months)
Complex / enterprise rebrand: 6-12 months
Discovery & onboarding: 1-2 weeks
Strategy development: 2-3 weeks
Visual identity design: 4-6 weeks
Guidelines & collateral: 2-6 weeks
What deliverables should businesses expect from a branding company?
A comprehensive branding campaign will hand over all materials needed to apply the new brand:
Research and strategy artifacts
Messaging assets
Visual identity package, including primary and secondary logos, color palette specs, iconography, and any motion-graphic rules
Brand guidelines
Templates and collateral, including editable templates for slide decks, social posts, email signatures, and ads (typically 10-20+ templates).
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.
