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!
Marketing Strategy Review from Mariana Lopez
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.

Vesy and Steve and the whole team at Found were wonderful to work with. They were responsive and generous with their time and support through a major brand transformation - and from a design perspective, the creative they provided was streamlined, easy to implement, and beautiful.
Valeria Kravchouk's Review Sourced from Google
Found Brand Agency has been so much more than just a service provider—they have been a true partner in every sense throughout our rebranding process and the launch of our new brand identity. As someone new to brand identity design—and transitioning from a completely different industry and role—I had countless questions and unknowns. Found not only met each challenge with professionalism and expertise but also demonstrated an exceptional ability to understand our firm at a deep level. Their thoughtful approach went beyond methodology and best practices; they anticipated our evolving needs, provided insightful recommendations, and guided us with care through every decision, even addressing out-of-scope concerns with unwavering dedication.Rebranding is an intricate and sometimes overwhelming journey, full of variables, but Found's commitment to truly knowing and supporting us made all the difference. They didn’t just deliver a brand identity; they nurtured a relationship, ensuring that every step aligned with our vision and set us up for long-term success. I am deeply grateful for their expertise, foresight, and genuine investment in our journey.
Austin Locke's Review Sourced from Google
When starting a new business, we needed someone that could help us find our unique voice in the market. We were entering a crowded space. We felt there was an opportunity in this market, but our brand itself had to be differentiated, the product alone wouldn't stand.Enter Found Brand Agency. They worked with us to tell our story and bring it to life. They helped us build the entire brand: logos, artwork, photography, messaging and website. It is one part of our company that we are most proud of.Found Brand has a collaborative style and a design process that makes you feel heard, but also enhances your ideas in ways you wouldn't have devised on your own. If you understand the importance of a brand and you're willing to invest in that part of your business, I would highly recommend Found Brand Agency as not just a transactional hire, but as a partner and adviser to help you succeed in the market.

Steven Alessandro's Review Sourced from Google
BRK Global Marketing and Jack Burke’s creative team absolutely exceeded my expectations.From the very beginning, BRK designed and built an original, standout brand for Devon Creek Landscaping that truly set us apart in the landscaping community. They created our logo and carried it seamlessly across everything—vehicle wraps, uniforms, brochures, social media frames, swag, digital and print advertising, and even our trade show booth.What really impressed me was the depth of strategy behind the creativity. BRK developed our brand voice, brand personality, and comprehensive brand guidelines, which became the foundation of our franchise marketing strategy system when we launched the brand. Everything was thoughtful, consistent, and built for long-term growth.Afterward, we had the pleasure of working with BRK again to design my personal Steven Alessandro brand as a thought leader and consultant for franchise owners and business leaders across the U.S. Once again, they hit the target.Jack and his team were incredibly responsive, listened closely to what I needed, and delivered an end result that was truly beyond my expectations. Their originality, attention to detail, and ability to translate vision into a powerful brand is unmatched.If you’re looking to stand out and build a brand that actually works—not just looks good—BRK Global Marketing is the team to trust.
Brian Gates's Review Sourced from Google
I’ve had the pleasure of working with BRK Global Marketing on multiple initiatives, starting with branding and a new logo for MRC over eighteen years ago, and now continuing with the RubberBond Elements brand and marketing strategy.What truly stands out is the longevity and consistency of strong deliverables that Jack and his team provide. Every project is approached with creativity, originality, and a clear strategic vision. BRK doesn’t just meet expectations—they consistently overdeliver.Their ability to evolve brands while maintaining clarity and impact has made them a trusted partner. I’m excited to continue working together and are already moving forward into 2026 with a new brand awareness strategy. Highly recommend BRK Global Marketing to any organization looking for creative excellence and dependable results.

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.

John Baird's Review Sourced from Google
I have worked with other design studios and, frankly, have never done so without frustration – sometimes a lot of frustration. PetersenWest is different. They truly are. John has assembles a team that is both talented and professional. They are not afraid to openly resist my bad ideas. And, they truly listen. John Petersen is a collaborator on nearly every new project we have. I trust his insight and love his restraint in helping to vet my new ideas. Our business group has worked with PetersenWest on multiple projects with vastly different needs and they never disappoint. We have stopped shopping around since finding them. Without question, they have become our “go-to” people.

PetersenWest is amazing, I've had the pleasure of working with John for a little over a year and I can't recommend him enough! He has great creative direction, communication, and has always been very easy to work with. Thanks for all your help, looking forward to future projects!

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 |
