Get ahead of your competition and stay there

CBMdesign provides the perfect combination of strategic thinking, message development, copywriting and graphic services, plus print production management to help your business get ahead of the competition — and stay there. Our veteran writers are unbeatable when it comes to crafting a distinct and compelling message that will engage the target audience. Alternatively, if you already have copy for a job, we can copy-edit for punctuation, grammar and consistent style, so your deliverables don’t just look good, they sound good and make sense as well.

Since no two jobs are alike, we quote each job separately. Our standard development rate is $100 per hour. We can also work within a flat-fee or retainer structure as well. Please call or email us and we will be happy to provide you with a detailed estimate.

Corporate Identity

When your customers see your logo, they are reminded of all their experiences with your company — what they have seen, read, heard and felt about your company. It is critical that your logo reflects the nature and spirit of your company in a positive way. Most start-up businesses need a logo, business cards, letterhead and envelopes. By designing these elements together we can develop a common look in your marketing materials that will help brand your business.

Advertising

Need an ad that will really grab some attention? We have developed advertising campaigns for companies of all sizes and offer a full range of services, from writing edgy copy to developing cutting-edge graphics. Our advertising services encompass black and white to full-color ads designed for magazines, outdoor and visitors guides, just to name a few. We can also provide social media ads and develop splash web pages to reinforce the advertising.

Direct Mail

Direct mail still has a prominent place in the marketing mix — in fact there’s still no better way than direct mail to target certain markets, directly and measurably. Direct mail can be used in combination with other media to multiply your campaign’s effectiveness. We can source the right consumer or business mailing list, design a compelling deliverable, print it, stuff it, address it, stamp it and get it out the door and into the mailboxes of the target audience.

Collateral

We help businesses of all sizes get their message out with high-quality, professional designs. Whether you need a flyer, tri-fold, marketing brochure, training manual, pocket folder or a catalog, we have the expertise to deliver. We can support and enhance an existing brand, ensuring that your materials are consistent, or we can work with you to develop and establish your brand.

Digital Marketing

Stand out from your competition. Utilizing the latest technology, we can create unique designs that grab the attention of your audience and quickly bring them to the information they need. From website development and banner ads, to social media and email campaigns, we can develop the digital assets that will get your company noticed — and increase your profits as well.

Production

CBMdesign has long-standing relationships with printing companies of all sizes that will get your job done professionally and quickly. Whether your job calls for 250 or 500,000 pieces, we can manage the process from start to finish, engaging the production partner best equipped to handle your job. And, because we don’t mark-up production costs, we’ll probably save you quite a bit of money as well.
