THE SOLUTION

Our branding team and web design experts identified key insights for the brand strategy and superior user experience.

Some of our deliverables included:
  • Industry Trends & Competitor Review

    To establish a clear and effective brand strategy for the new website, we conducted a comprehensive review of current industry trends and a detailed analysis of key competitors, which allowed us to identify areas where CrawlSF could uniquely position itself in the market.

  • Crafting UVP & Brand Identity

    The insights gained from our analysis were instrumental in shaping a distinct unique value proposition (UVP) for CrawlSF. We worked to articulate what sets CrawlSF apart from its competitors, focusing on its strengths and unique offerings to appeal to both locals and visitors in San Francisco.

  • Creation Of The New CrawlSF Logo

    The culmination of this strategic branding process also led to the development of a new logo for CrawlSF. The logo was designed to visually represent the brand’s refreshed identity and value proposition.
    The new logo served as a critical component in establishing the brand’s identity and was integrated throughout the website, reinforcing the brand’s presence and recognition in the market.

  • New Website Strategy & UX Design

    We worked on the optimal website sitemap and layout that would help users find events and information that they need very fast on the website. We also emphasized the importance of typography and photography on the web space, that would make it more readable and easy to navigate.
