Services

We value impactful strategy, long-term brand building, and creating strong customer relationships for our clients. Strategy, elevated design, and customer-centric experiences are our strong suits.

  • Brand Strategy gives you a deep understanding of who cares about your brand and uncovers the areas where you are an absolute expert. Our Brand Design projects create visually stunning brand identities that are built for the long term, to attract customers time and time again.

    Project timeline: 4-8 weeks

  • Content creation and web design go hand in hand. If you struggle with crafting the words to create your brand’s personality, it’s time to get a copywriter on board. In collaboration with our talented web designers, we’ll create a content layout that drives conversions and enchants with design.
    Project timeline: 6-8 weeks

  • Strong packaging is all about strong systems. These tactical touch-points are vital to your brand and your customer experience. From menu designs to full product packaging, we’ll build off of your brand design to create an elevated, IRL brand experience.

    Project timeline: 1 month or more, TBD on project needs.

  • Great for businesses that have their brand and marketing established but need help with strategy. An ideal Alinea Collective service to use if you are looking to grow, launch something new, or re-position. Typically these are 1-2 month projects to develop a marketing calendar and updated brand strategy.

  • From hosting our own Alinea Collective Summits to helping clients brainstorm events where consumers can connect to a brand, we love bringing in-person experiences to life.

    Great for:

    • Brand activations

    • Pop-ups

    • Shopping events

    • Retreats or 1-day experiences

Our mission is to ease the branding and marketing process. We provide guidance and build brand confidence through high-performing deliverables that are created to serve your business for years to come.

“I really enjoyed working with Alinea. They made all of their price structures and what they could provide very clear. They made my thoughts and ideas come to real life fruition. I would definitely recommend working with Alinea. They do beautiful work that will last a lifetime.”

Jaclyn, HolistiCupboard

"I can't even put into words how grateful I am for all you ladies- I’ve seriously dreamed of my brand coming to life like this for years and until you guys started this amazing company I didn't even know how to go about making this dream a reality."

Laura, Lulu Pottery

“I have been a small business owner for 7 years, in those 7 years I managed every part of my business and found it overwhelming and challenging to create a refined and polished brand. As I was beginning to think about my next venture I knew that I needed a team to support my basic branding strategies that would then lead into fully developing the refined brand I envisioned. Working with them allowed me to look at every part of my business and hone in on how I was going to give my future clientele an out of this world experience. It was a dream to work with Alinea, who answered all of my questions along the way, challenged me to look at new aspects of my business and how I was going to manage client experiences.”

Lauryn, Butterkrem Bakery
