FAQs

What is a mini brand refresh, and how does it differ from a full rebranding?
A mini brand refresh involves updating specific elements of your existing brand, such as the logo, color palette, or typography, to give it a more modern look while maintaining its core identity. Unlike a full rebranding, which may involve a comprehensive overhaul of all brand elements and strategies, a mini refresh focuses on targeted updates.
How long does a mini brand refresh typically take?
A mini brand refresh usually takes around 2-4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the changes and the speed of communication. The timeline can be adjusted based on your specific needs and feedback.
What information do I need to provide for a mini brand refresh?
To start, you'll need to provide a clear vision and goals, any preferences, visual references, brand information, and any legal considerations related to your current branding.
How many design concepts will I receive?
Typically, you will receive 2-3 initial design concepts for the refreshed elements, such as the logo or color palette. This allows you to choose the direction that best aligns with your vision.
How many rounds of revisions are included?
The service generally includes 2 rounds of revisions to refine the selected design concept. Additional revisions can be arranged if needed, and a quote will be communicated in advance to cover additional work.
What is the process for providing feedback and making revisions?
After receiving the initial concepts, you can provide feedback through written comments or a review call. I'll then make the necessary adjustments based on your input. Clear and timely feedback helps ensure that revisions are completed efficiently.
What happens if I’m not satisfied with the final design?
The service includes a set number of revisions to address any concerns. If you’re still not satisfied after the revisions, we can discuss further options. Additional costs will apply for further changes beyond the agreed scope.
How will we communicate?
We’ll start off with Google Meet video meetings to discuss your project and present the first round of concepts. For shorter communications, we’ll use Slack or email.
We don't live in the same city. Can we still work together?
