Creative Services Review from Erika Respress
Working with The 95 Agency for the 2024 Bronner Bros Beauty Show was a game changer for us. As a 77-year-old brand that has been a cornerstone in the beauty industry, we needed a partner who could bring fresh, innovative ideas while staying true to our legacy. The 95 Agency did exactly that. From the start, they provided full-service support, handling everything from creative direction to digital marketing, and they executed our vision flawlessly. Their team expertly managed our brand presence, ensuring that our participation in the 2024 Beauty Show was impactful and resonated with both existing and new audiences. They not only captured the essence of our brand but also helped us highlight our product line in a way that generated excitement and engagement. The 95 Agencys marketing strategies were spot-on, leveraging social media, influencer partnerships, and event activations to build buzz before, during, and after the event. Their creative direction for the booth design and all event materials made us stand out, and their digital campaign gave our product line the exposure it deserved. We couldnt be more pleased with the results. The 95 Agencys professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail helped us take Bronner Bros to new heights. We look forward to continuing our partnership and growing our brand even further.

We have successfully incorporated Design Force as a great way to expand our capacity as a small studio - particularly with some of our clients with on-going production needs. Ashley and Agustin have been fantastic to work with, and I look forward to working with them again moving forward.

Sabrina Goodrum's Review Sourced from Google
The absolute BEST team to work with on anything!! Let me tell you, we have been working with so many companies for our new business but Davel has been the best and the most helpful team ever!! I mostly want to highlight Marie Poghosyan and Hovhannes Simonyan! Marie has listened to all our needs with such great care. She has been available with all questions! And she has offered incredible support and advice! Hov has been very kind and generous with working with our needs and budget! He cares and it shows. Thank you all so much! You’re the best!!
Joseph Seif's Review Sourced from Google
I've had the pleasure of working with Davel now for the last 3-4 months. I've got to say, honestly, my wife and I have been nothing short of amazed. We opened out medspa almost 1.5 years ago, and for the first year or so were working with a couple different marketing companies that were taking a lot of money with very minimal delivery of tangible help leading to lead acquisition etc. I was reached out to by Marie from Davel and figured I'd give it a shot since I wasn't very happy with the current marketing situation I had. Her and Hov did the intro call with me and I just felt a sense of comfort with them. I felt like there was a degree of honesty/transparency that came across which I hadn't previously experienced in this space. They gave me a good price to trial their services month by month to start. From the very first month we have honestly been extremely impressed. They always have a plan laid out for the month, whether it's for social media content they'll be posting, or video scripts for in person shoots etc. The in-person shooting team who we've now hosted 3 times is phenomenal: Elen (creative mastemind), Gagik (master camera-man), and Marie always prepared with her on-point scripts that combine education with comic relief. Since contracting with them, I've had friends and family regularly stop me and say "whatever you did to your marketing recently, don't change it!" With Davel's help and ideas/creativity, our instagram has truly experienced a facelift, and our business has really started to pick up with calls, bookings etc (and it's only been a couple months). If you're curious as to the "lift" they gave our IG, check out @sm_drip_medspa. I would hands down recommend Davel to anyone looking to grow their business from a marketing/social medial presence aspect. Probably one of the best business decisions I've made.

I worked with Davel over a span of three months on my organizations Annual Report. They were extremely communicative and responsive to all of our needs and adjustments. I definitely recommend working with them if you have a dynamic project that may change or iterate as it is being created. Davel is flexible, kind, and very talented. They also have a team that will accommodate your needs.

A top packaging design company in the US builds packaging systems that influence product perception, brand credibility, and purchase decisions. These firms design labels, containers, cartons, and packaging visuals that align brand strategy with physical and digital shelf environments.
Such services generally include:
Packaging design companies help businesses build packaging that supports branding, compliance, and conversion by helping them:
Over 90,000 people search for unboxing videos on YouTube each month, which shows how packaging influences purchase interest and brand perception.
72% of consumers will purchase a product if they find it visually appealing.
What’s more, 78% of consumers believe that the sustainability of a product’s packaging is crucial when deciding on a purchase.
Those growing expectations for sustainability and differentiation are helping to push the packaging design market toward $35.06 billion by 2032 from its current value of $26.64 billion (4% CAGR), according to a report by Coherent Market Insights.
Packaging design budgets depend on the number of products, materials, and production constraints. Project pricing scales with scope, customization, and production demands:
Folding cartons usually cost $1.80–$2.25 per unit, while premium rigid boxes range from $8.50–$10 per unit.
While it is possible to find rates as low as $25 per hour, most US packaging design agencies generally charge $100–$149 per hour, driven by higher labor costs and specialized design expertise.
This puts US rates at the higher end of the global market compared to Europe (≈$50–$75/hr) and Asia (often under $65/hr).
Budgets vary by industry due to differences in materials, compliance requirements, and production complexity:
With the world’s largest packaging design market (35% in North America, per Coherent Market Insights’ report), there are plenty of agencies to choose from in the US.
Beyond creative skill, look at strategic thinking, technical precision, and production readiness.
We’ve assembled a selection of top packaging design companies on DesignRush across a range of budget levels to help you find a partner that fits your needs.
| High budget: $100-$150 per hour |
