Proposal

 

I am excited to have the opportunity to work with you on the creation of The Exchange’s Identity. This proposal serves as an initial backbone of the project, but it will be flexible and be shaped by your input.

The quote below outlines the complete brand identity system, a website, and a brochure. The goal is to give The Exchange a strong aesthetic presence across every touchpoint — from a prospective client’s first impression of the logo, to browsing offers online, to the materials available as downloads or attachments.
