Dang right we could whip you up a logo. Some say we're pretty good at it too. The magic starts with a brand strategy to understand your goals, mission, vision and values. With a strategy in place, we can help you hit your goals while looking the part.

Heck yeah! The first step is to contact us. Oftentimes, we will send a simple questionnaire to learn more followed by an in-person Discovery Meeting so we can learn how we can help you and your team. Afterwards, we will create a custom proposal for your specific project. If everything looks good, just sign the dotted line and we’ll be ready to go!

We believe design shines when form meets function. As a result, every project begins with research and data in order to make intentional, strategic choices when it comes to the visual appearance of a piece. Then we add in a bit of whimsy and ‘walla’, you have the finished product!

But in all seriousness, here’s how a typical project process looks:
Discovery Meeting > Research > Strategy > Design > Launch. Collaboration with clients and attention to detail is key throughout the process as we have multiple checkpoints to ensure a happy ending and final products that meet your goals.

Native to North Dakota, both Ben and Ashton take great pride in the creation and continuation of a company based in Bismarck-Mandan. The Midwest tends to be an overlooked asset for creatives and we personally know countless world-class folks doing exceptional work right here. The Good Kids aims to build awareness of the talent found here and it’s also a really great place to live! Basically, we just really love the people here.

Our strategic branding process typically takes 2-4 months to go from first conversation to final result. You'll walk away with a full brand kit to put in action. Additional materials such as signage, stationary, website can be created following the completed brand process.

Thankfully Ben wins this one without question ;)

Our expertise is branding, which is often the step before (or in tangent with) marketing and advertising. The Good Kids is committed to building a company's brand identity (colors, fonts, patterns, icons, imagery and messaging) for use in marketing and advertising campaigns. While we can certainly create ads, we prefer to outsource campaign strategy and placement to our peers who focus on that aspect of the industry. Items we are accustomed to readily producing for clients include: websites, packaging, photography, stationery, book covers, menus and illustrations.

While there’s many different reasons to take a step back and come up with a strategic game plan for your business (aka branding), it often boils down to presenting a consistent experience for your customer, standing out from even your closest competitors, and ultimately gaining the confidence you need to make bold business decisions (and avoid wasting time). Branding is a proven tool to help you grow your business and we’d love to show you how it can help hit your specific goals.

The Good Kids bids each project on its own merits. While it’d be convenient to throw out a price list, it wouldn't be fair...to you. We want to make sure we do just the right amount of work to reach your goals. The way to ensure we don’t work too little or too much is through custom quotes.

Of course! We just ask that you email us and set up an appointment first. Sometimes we host ‘happy hour’ on Friday afternoons or design meetups on occasion. It’s a fun time. Stop by and say hello.
