Twisted Tree Branding Identity

August 24, 2015

54

Fee Summary

Research, conceptualization, presentation and revisions until the final logo is ready for presentation. The time between client communication and turn-around will be as expedient as possible. The design will reflect the twisted juniper and bristle cone pine trees at high altitudes helping to emphasize the local environment and the specialization of high-altitude roasting.

The logo will be the crucial element of branding Twisted Tree. Each piece of material following will reflect the logo and maintain the brand identity, putting emphasis on the product and it’s identity. I will also make you a business card design and discuss printing options.

We’ll start with the first lable and decide how dif ferent each label should be or how similar they are by developing a branding strategy reflecting the trajectory of future varieties.

After the primary label is created, we will revisit the needs for future varietal labels and how to bill them.

This proposal is valid until September 24, 2015. To take advantage of this proposal and proceed with the project as outlined,TTC’s next steps are to:

• Accept the proposal as-is • Discuss desired changes with Brien McCrea Studio • Finalize and sign contract• Submit initial payment of 50 percent of the first phase. • High-Five the people around you• Look forward to a great package

Once completed, Brien McCrea Studio will launch the project while gathering the rest of the necessary information.

I am happy to make changes to project scope on TTC ’s request at any time, but may be subject to additional billing (see Revisions and Alterations).

Next Steps

Purchasing the domain and hosting, I will use a user friendly template and brand Twisted Tree Coffe for web sales. E-Commerce applications will be available to add for small add-on fees by their developers. Essentially using a web host with templates, such as Weebly, my fee is just setting up the primary design of the site and it will enable easy access for your to edit and moniter the site yourself without encurring web development and webmaster fees. Hard costs of getting the site running average about $200 before my service of making it look good and keep to branding.

Each phase requires a 50% deposit at innitiation and remainder upon completion.
