Portland businesses
Portland has many long-running independent businesses: neighborhood shops, cafes, trades and small manufacturers. Plenty of them have a hand-drawn or craft-style logo that suits their character but was never set up for the web, embroidery or a vehicle. A refresh keeps the hand-made feel and builds the clean files and simpler versions those uses need.
Gray, rainy months change how a sign reads. Muted colors that look calm on screen can disappear against wet pavement and overcast skies, so the audit checks contrast for flat winter light. Many storefronts are seen up close by people walking, biking or riding transit, which makes window lettering and door graphics matter as much as the main sign.
How a Portland rebrand runs
- You send photos of every place your brand shows up, plus the files you have.
- We audit each piece and send a verdict: tidy the files, refresh the logo, or rebrand.
- You get a written quote for the work the audit points to, and decide from there.
- We design, refine with your markups, then plan the rollout with your vendors.
All of it happens by email, shared folders and video calls in Pacific time. We have no office in Portland, and an audit doesn't need a visit. Clear photos of your sign, your vehicles and your paperwork show us what we need. Your local sign shop, wrap installer and printer produce the new pieces from our files.

Questions
What time zone do you use for Portland?
We book calls in Pacific time. Everything else happens by email and shared folders.
Our logo was hand-drawn. Can you keep that feel?
Yes. We redraw it as a clean vector file and keep the irregular lines that give it character, then add simpler versions for small sizes.
Ask for a quote
Cost depends on how many touchpoints you have, whether the audit points to a refresh or a full rebrand, and how much rollout support you want. Every job gets a written quote before work starts.
