Striped Horse

Branding Services Built on Strategy and Craft

A branding company helping businesses build clear, distinctive brands designed to grow with them.
Your brand is more than a logo. It is how people understand your business, what makes you different, and why they choose you. As a brand development agency, Striped Horse brings strategy, positioning, messaging, identity, and rollout together under one team.

LET’S GET STARTED

Brands we've built for

Our Branding Services

Strong brands are built from connected decisions, not isolated creative assets. Our branding services bring strategy, positioning, messaging, creative direction, and design together to create a brand that is clear about what it stands for and consistent in how it shows up - whether you're a startup finding your voice or an established business ready to evolve.

Brand Strategy

We define the strategic foundation behind your brand - your audience, market context, competitive landscape, purpose, and priorities. The result is a clear direction that guides how your brand communicates, evolves, and makes decisions.

Brand Positioning

We clarify where your brand fits in the market and what makes it worth choosing. By identifying your strongest points of difference and the value they create for your audience, we build a position your business can communicate clearly and own with confidence.

Brand Messaging & Voice

We shape how your brand communicates through clear messaging, key value propositions, and a distinctive tone of voice. The goal is to make what you say as recognizable and consistent as how your brand looks.

Creative Direction

We translate strategy into a clear creative direction for the brand. From overall mood and personality to the principles that guide visual and verbal expression, we establish a creative territory that keeps every execution connected.

Brand Identity Design

We build the visual system that makes your brand recognizable across every touchpoint, including logo, color, typography, imagery, and brand guidelines. Explore our full brand identity design services.

Brand Development & Rollout

As a brand development agency, we help carry the new direction beyond the strategy and design phase. We support rollout across websites, campaigns, marketing materials, and other customer touchpoints, with ongoing creative support as the business evolves.

Discovery & Brand Audit

We start by understanding your business, audience, market, competitors, and existing brand. Through discovery and research, we identify what is working, where the gaps are, and where the strongest opportunities lie.

Brand Strategy and Positioning

We define the strategic foundation of the brand, including its purpose, audience, market position, points of difference, and value proposition. This gives us a clear direction for how the brand should compete and what it should be known for.
03.

Messaging & Creative Direction

With the strategy in place, we shape how the brand should communicate and feel. We establish key messaging, tone of voice, brand personality, and creative direction so the verbal and visual sides of the brand work together.

Brand Development

We bring the strategy and creative direction to life through our brand development services, creating the core elements needed to make the brand distinctive, cohesive, and usable across real customer touchpoints.
05.

Brand System & Guidelines

We organize the work into a practical brand system your team can use consistently. Clear guidelines establish how the brand should communicate and appear across channels while leaving enough flexibility for it to evolve.

Rollout & Ongoing Support

We help put the brand into practice across your website, marketing, campaigns, and other key touchpoints. Whether you are building a new brand or rolling out a rebrand, ongoing support is available to help new applications stay connected to the original strategy.

Why Choose Striped Horse for Branding Services

Branding, Design & Development Under One Roof

Your brand and digital presence are developed by the same team. Strategy, identity, web design, and development stay aligned instead of being handed between separate agencies.

Strategy Before Aesthetics

We start with your audience, market, positioning, and business goals before making creative decisions. The result is a brand built around a clear idea, not just a visual style.

We Build Brand Systems, Not Isolated Assets

A logo alone cannot keep a brand consistent. We create connected systems for messaging, visual direction, and practical application so teams have a clear framework to work from.

Experience Across Different Industries

Our branding work spans SaaS, eCommerce, healthcare, education, nonprofits, professional services, and other sectors. That cross-industry perspective helps us understand what audiences expect and where a brand has room to stand apart.

From Brand to Real-World Rollout

We think beyond the presentation deck. Brand decisions are made with websites, campaigns, marketing materials, and other customer touchpoints in mind from the beginning.

Support as Your Brand Evolves

As your business changes, the brand may need new applications, campaigns, digital assets, or refinements. Ongoing branding, design, and development support can be scoped as those needs emerge.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

"They're great in every category, and not only the work they do is great, but they are very accommodating and communicative. I was very fortunate to have Danielle leading the web development team-- it was no easy task to take over a year-long project along with a bunch of new devs to work with into a working product in less than two months' time. One of the challenging project-wise for our university website project and she got the team doing good work and managed to get where we need to be. I will continue to work with her!"

Bryce Chapman
Marketing Communications Director, Gallaudet University

"They helped to make our website redesign a success. Danielle was a very quick communicator and patient with our team throughout the entire process. She was knowledgeable and always able to clearly answer my (many!) questions. Our team is very happy with the outcome of our new website. I would recommend Striped Horse to anyone looking for web design services."

I can't say enough good things about working with the Striped Horse team in designing a new website for our Center at Stanford. They were fantastic -- really responsive, creative and solutions-oriented, hard-working and on-the-ball in all aspects of managing and executing a complex project like this. Their rates are quite reasonable given the incredible value you get from the work. And the outcomes are terrific - they created a great-looking, user-friendly site designed to optimize for our goals. My strong recommendation is: do not delay, and try to get the Striped Horse team to work with you on your project! You can't do better, and you won't regret it.
