Branding Review from Marta Stattmiller
A friend referred me to Revelation after they had helped them with their healthy snack brand. We were looking for an agency that would take our idea and design it into a brand that really stood out from the rest. We felt the Revelation group did a great job with all of the branding and marketing brief creation along with guiding us on how to stand out in our space.
Branding Review from Christopher Hiti
We have worked with Revelation on a few branding projects, and they have always delivered on time and with a great sense of creativity. Their team understands market positioning well, and is one of the reasons we continue to utilize them for all things branding and creative.
Web Design Review from Guisou Akhavan
After searching for a few months for a creative agency I ended up going with Revelation, I felt they understood my goals the best along with having a distinct design language. I was pretty impressed with the direction they took on my branding materials and web design project and feel comfortable recommending them to other people needing similar services.

Logo Design Review from Sandra Falque
Working with Lina and her team on the branding for Jules Stories was an absolute joy. Lina is warm, incredibly smart, and endlessly creative she truly got the heart of the project from day one. Her ability to listen, challenge, and adapt made the process feel collaborative and inspiring. I couldn't have asked for a better partner to bring Jules to life visually.
Branding Review from Noelle Acosta
Lina was a phenomenal designer to work with in our brand refresh. We were looking for something that felt bold yet comforting, trustworthy, and spoke to our mission to empower women to live better for longer through their hormone data. Lina was a terrific listener, applied our feedback quickly, communicated effectively throughout our project, and delivered options that we were very happy with. We always get compliments on how beautiful our branding is. Thank you, Lina and Onlychild Design!
Branding Review from Kaelynn Priest
I can't say enough good things about Only Child. They were truly partners throughout our entire branding project as they listened carefully to feedback and customized everything to our specific needs. From logo to brand voice, and brand strategy to web redesign - they did it all. The end product is better than I could have imagined and feels completely custom. The team was very professional and responsive to all of my questions and needs and a great all around partner.

We like to choose partners who can handle direction at a high level and run with it, and Indiegogh Creative did just that! They were great to communicate and work with. Not only did they meet deliverables, but they went above and beyond by providing helpful tools and articles we can use after our project with them ended. We look forward to working with Indiegogh again in the future in another capacity!

I am constantly amazed at the quality and high level of customer service from Brian and the team at Maycreate. In today's fast paced world of advertising and marketing, we need a partner who can keep up and be able to adapt with the changes. Thanks for all you do!
Jennifer Deal's Review Sourced from Google
As a veteran of advertising for more than 12 year and now on the client side for six, my expectations for an agency are high. MayCreate delivers. Brian leads his agency with integrity and a core set of beliefs that cannot be wavered. He does not compromise the integrity of his work, which I value for the overall satisfaction of good creative strategy and execution. After all, it is their expertise that I need. I've worked on several campaigns with MayCreate and I've been 100% satisfied with the level of service and the quality of work delivered. Thanks to Jen, too, for helping make IgniteRed, the event for Go Red for Women, such a hug success!

Working with Adam and his team has been a pleasure. They communicate clearly, have a structured process, excellently manage expectations and outcomes, and provide an exceptional value.

Susie Grade's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Adam Vicarel and his team at Vicarel Studios was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. They brought incredible creativity to the project, were highly professional in every interaction, and made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Adam and his team listened closely, offered thoughtful ideas, and delivered work that far exceeded expectations. I can’t recommend Vicarel Studios enough—if you’re looking for a talented, professional, and genuinely great team to collaborate with, look no further!
Bayli Morse's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Vicarel Studio is always such a good time. We came to them for branding and walked away with work that felt next level. The vibe? Professional but never stiff. Creative but still totally strategic. They just got us — and brought our vision to life in a way that felt fresh, elevated, and super aligned. If you’re looking for a team that delivers killer artwork and knows how to make the process feel easy (and fun), Vicarel Studio is the one. 10/10 would do it all over again.

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.
Kathryn Orchard's Review Sourced from Google
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!
Georgia Heller's Review Sourced from Google
I've been working with PetersenWest for over 6 months now and have been thrilled with the work they do! It's great to work with a local designer in Utah that understand our business and our brand inside and out. His agency is very responsive and willing to go the extra mile to ensure all our graphic design needs are met. I plan on using PetersenWest as long as I can!

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 |

| Low budget: $50-$100 per hour |
