Brand Identity

Digital Ammo creates striking visual brand identities and communication strategies for startups and small to medium sizes businesses, from our local Chicago area and around the world.

A few of our branding projects:

We created the new logo and brand identity for a global executive search and consulting firm.

After 15 successful years in business, a Chicago wealth management firm approached us to create their very first logo.

Building Impact (formerly known as Impact for Education) needed a new logo and identity to better position them into new markets.

Approach

Your brand identity is one of the most important investments you can make for your business. It differentiates and expresses your values, mission and overall essence of your organization and most importantly, it’s the most meaningful point of connection between you and your consumers. Our goal is to create an impactful brand identity that establishes a significant presence within your market and attracts and retains loyal customers. We take the time to get to know you and your business on a deeper level so we can craft a consistent, extremely personal and distinct visual identity that engages, impacts and resonates with your target audience.

Testimonials

“When looking to update our firm’s website, we knew we wanted someone who would not only deliver a high-quality end product, but someone who would be a long-term strategic partner in helping to shape our brand and digital strategy. We have certainly found that in Digital Ammo. The rapport and synergy was immediate. Ian, Olivia, and the entire team are thoughtful, creative, and true subject matter experts. They listened to our vision and worked with us to develop a website and re-branding package that exceeded our expectations – it is contemporary, dynamic, and will support our firm’s growth.
