Branding & Identity

HAPPY COG views each project as a fresh opportunity to develop a distinctive and memorable brand identity — an identity with its own presence, its own compelling logic and emotions.

It’s this logic and these emotions that help visitors connect with your product or service, take your site seriously as an entity, and keep coming back.

Elusive until it’s discovered and made real, this identity springs from the essence of your product or service and the place where it intersects with genuine human needs. To uncover it, we spend time getting to know you, your product, the people you serve, and those you haven’t reached yet.

Some consultancies label this creative research period “needs analysis.” We call it finding the heart of the site. Only after we’ve found it do we begin the visualization and content work you expect from a web agency.

The work typically includes logo development, the creation of an appropriate themeline, and the visual design and production of your site. It often extends to content development, promotional campaigns, and print materials.

Each component works with the others to tell your story. Every word counts. Every image counts. The way your site behaves tells as much about you as the way it looks.

As a web agency, we do many things and strive to excel at many tasks, both creative and technical. But it’s all about the content. Your content, your story, your connection with your audience.

Happy Cog creates uniquely memorable online experiences that deliver honest and appropriate brand attributes for companies and organizations large and small. What can we do for you?
