About Branding
Most people know branding as the logo, the name and the visuals that identify a company. But it is so much more. Branding is what people remember about you when you're not around. It's what they tell their friends about you when you're not listening. It's what moves people to invite you into their homes, their families, their lives, to align themselves with you on a set of core values and to take action. Branding is an expression of the heart and soul of your company, and it isn't created, it is embodied.
Process
Established in 2010, Matter was envisioned as a scalable branding agency for mission-driven businesses and nonprofits. Today, we include an exceptionally talented pool of creatives - designers, illustrators, photographers, writers, web developers, videographers - that are able to meet the needs of a wide variety of projects with diverse audiences, messages, budgets & timelines. For every project, you have one point person, Creative Director and Founder of Matter, Davina Grunstein. Each project is its own creative journey, but our goal is singular - to create an authentic, elegant, memorable expression of what makes your business matter, to you, and to the rest of the world.
