04 Brand Identity

A brand that earns trust
before you
say a word.

Aggento designs brand identities that communicate quality on first sight — logos, color systems, typography, and brand guidelines built to stand out, stay consistent, and grow with the business. No clip art. No Canva fonts. No brand kits that look like every other brand kit from that online tool.

A bad logo tells people
you're not serious
before you speak.

Brand identity is the part of marketing most business owners underinvest in because it's invisible when it's done right — and embarrassingly visible when it's done wrong. A logo from a logo maker site, a color scheme borrowed from a competitor, and a font that came pre-loaded in Word aren't just aesthetically mediocre. They actively communicate something: that you didn't think your presentation was worth professional investment.

High-value clients — premium buyers, serious B2B prospects, anyone spending real money — make trust decisions quickly and largely unconsciously. They're not examining your logo and deciding rationally whether it's professional enough. They're forming a gut impression before they've read a single word, and that impression follows them through the entire sales process.

The question isn't whether branding matters. It's whether your current brand is helping or hurting. A well-designed identity doesn't announce itself — it just makes everything else easier. The pitch deck lands better. The website feels credible. The proposal gets read.

We've designed brands for luxury real estate agents, e-commerce stores, service businesses, and agencies. The common thread: clients who previously felt apologetic about sharing their materials suddenly feel confident doing it.

Speciality 01

Logo &
visual identity

Mark · wordmark · color · typography · usage rules
Start a logo project

A logo is not a brand. It's the most visible part of a brand — the mark that appears on everything, that becomes shorthand for your entire business in a client's mind. It needs to work at 16px on a browser favicon and at 10 feet on a sign. It needs to look right in black and white and in color. It needs to age well.

We design logos with those constraints in mind, not with the goal of impressing you in a presentation and failing in the real world.

Build my brand guidelines

A logo without guidelines is a logo that gets misused. Brand guidelines are the document — usually 15–30 pages — that tells anyone working with your brand how to use it correctly. Designers, social media managers, vendors, employees: they all need to know what's in bounds and what isn't.

We produce brand guidelines that are actually used — not 80-page documents that live on a hard drive. Clear rules, specific examples, and enough visual references that a designer who's never met you can produce on-brand work.

Build my digital brand

A brand that was designed for print often breaks when applied to screens. Digital brand systems solve this — they take the core identity and extend it into every digital context: website design tokens, social media templates, email signatures, presentation decks, and UI components.

Most valuable when paired with a website project or e-commerce build. The digital brand system becomes the design foundation that every touchpoint is built on.

Discovery brief — a structured 20-question brief that extracts your positioning, audience, values, and visual preferences before design begins.
Two concept directions — distinct visual approaches, not variations on one idea. Real exploration, not fake diversity.
Revision rounds — two revision rounds on the selected direction. Most projects finalize before the second round.
Full file package — SVG, PNG, and PDF in every logo variant, color combination, and size. Print-ready and screen-ready.
Color system — hex, RGB, CMYK, and Pantone values. Primary, secondary, and neutral palette defined.
Typography specification — primary and secondary typefaces with size, weight, and usage guidance.
Usage guidelines — a concise brand guide covering do's, don'ts, clear space, and application examples.
IP transfer on delivery — all design files and rights transfer to you on final payment. No retained rights, no license fees.
How it works

Five stages.
One clear identity.

From brief to final files in 5–7 days
Start the conversation

Every project follows the same structured process. Scope is fixed before work starts. Timeline is agreed before design begins. There are no mid-project surprises and no scope creep that changes the price after the fact.

01
Brief
A structured written brief that extracts everything we need to design for: your market, your positioning, your audience, and the businesses you admire — and the ones you don't want to look like.
02
Research
We look at your competitors, your market, and your target audience. We identify what looks generic in your category and what would make you stand out within it.
03
Concepts
Two distinct concept directions. Each shows the mark, the wordmark, the color palette, and a few application examples so you can see the full feel, not just the logo in isolation.
04
Refine
You select a direction and give feedback. We refine until it's right — typically one round of revisions is all that's needed.
05
Deliver
Full file package delivered: every variant, every format, every size. Usage guidelines included. Ready to use everywhere from day one.

A brand that earns trust
from licensors and customers.

Case study · E-Commerce · Licensed Party Supplies

Prime Party —
a brand that earns
press coverage.

Prime Party is a licensed party supply store carrying Monster Jam, The Office, Golden Girls, Ghostbusters, Care Bears, and more. The brand had to walk a fine line: fun and celebratory enough to fit the party supplies category, but distinct enough to be taken seriously by major licensors and to stand out in a crowded e-commerce market.

The visual identity — bold, confident, celebration-forward without being juvenile — was extended across the full Shopify store. The result: 755+ customer reviews, press in Yahoo, NY Magazine, and Mental Floss, and placement with 10+ premium licensed brands. A brand that earns trust from licensors and customers alike.

Starts at $1,800

A logo and brand kit — mark, variants, color system, typography, and usage guide — starts at $1,800. This covers a single brand for one business, delivered in 5–7 days.

Brand guidelines (full 15–20 page document) add $800 to any logo project. Digital brand system (web tokens, social templates, email signature, presentation deck) is priced based on scope — typically $1,200–$2,400.

Full brand system (logo + guidelines + digital) starts at $3,500. Website projects that include a full brand system receive the digital brand tokens at no additional cost.

Revision rounds: two rounds included on the selected concept direction. Additional rounds available at $250 each. In practice, most projects finalize within the included rounds.

04 Common questions

What clients
always ask.

A brand kit includes: all logo variants (primary, horizontal, stacked, icon-only) in SVG, PNG, and PDF; a color palette with hex, RGB, CMYK, and Pantone values; typography specification with font names and usage guidance; and a concise usage guide with do's and don'ts. Everything you need to use your brand consistently across any channel or medium.

Two revision rounds on the selected concept direction. You select one direction from two concepts, then provide feedback. We refine. If needed, a second round. In practice, most projects lock the final logo within the first revision round. Additional revision rounds are available at $250 each.

Every logo variant in SVG (scalable, ideal for web and professional print), PNG (transparent background, standard digital use), and PDF (vector, ideal for professional printers). Files organized by variant (primary, horizontal, stacked, icon), color (full color, black, white, reversed), and background (light, dark, transparent).

Yes. If you have an existing logo that has equity but needs refinement — cleaner execution, updated typography, better file quality — we can refine rather than rebuild. This is a lighter engagement (typically $800–$1,200) and the right choice when the mark has recognition but the execution isn't professional.

Yes. Rebrands are often more strategic than new brands because there's equity to preserve and equity to shed. We start with what's working in your current identity and what isn't — what clients recognize and associate positively with you — and build from there. Rebrands typically run 10–20 days, longer than new identities, because the research phase is more intensive.

No problem. We can work within defined constraints — specific colors, typefaces, or stylistic directions you've already committed to. Just flag this in the brief. Constraints often produce better work anyway because they narrow the design problem.
