We worked with Palli Palli Mobile Paddle Board Rentals, utilizing our creativity to design a brand that captures their adventurous spirit.
We developed the name, logo, and brand identity, including typeface, colors, and framework.
We maintained consistent branding for Palli Palli Mobile Paddle Board Rentals across all customer touch-points, including their website, car wraps, board designs, brochures, collateral, email marketing, and social media management.
With all the brand elements, collateral and website in place our next priority was to launch this new brand and run campaigns to build awareness and drive rental and board sales.
