You need someone who can turn your product into a brand that people want to buy. That's our speciality. We call it branding, but basically its knowing how to create messaging, take pictures, dream-up graphics, design and manufacture packaging, and present it all in an attractive and memorable way that gets people to buy. After 20 years of experience and many awards with positive reviews, apparently we do it well.

We are highly impressed by Deal Design's organizational skills and their ability to manage very complex, multi-tiered projects efficiently. Their flexibility and seamless project management have been crucial in meeting our tight deadlines and producing high-quality work.
Unfortunately, there was nothing about Deal Design's work that stood out positively. The overall experience was underwhelming, and their work was mediocre.
What Users Like The Least
While there is always room for improvement, particularly as Appomart continues to support our business from an IT perspective, our overall experience has been extremely positive.
No, this team is great.
David, the main point of contact, could have completed the work as promised. Their inability to deliver on their commitments has left us feeling cheated, and we are now considering taking action through the Better Business Bureau and other avenues. This experience has been a cautionary tale, and I urge others to be careful before engaging with them.
Appomart’s exceptional work helped us resulting in over 3,000 downloads and high ratings in the initial months.
Working with Appomart on the Toolly project was a remarkable experience. The project involved developing a robust IT platform from scratch, including four mobile clients and a web client, designed to handle various professional services and payments. Appomart delivered the platform ahead of schedule, adhering to the budget and surpassing our expectations.

Deal Design excelled in turning our ideas into tangible, well-executed designs through a collaborative and responsive process.
Working with Deal Design was a highly rewarding experience. We initially found them through a referral and were impressed by their portfolio and capacity to handle our needs. The project involved creating new branding assets that would align with our existing packaging, and Deal Design delivered on every front.
What stood out the most was their ability to take our ideas and bring them to life. They worked closely with us in a truly collaborative environment, incorporating our feedback and going through multiple iterations until we reached the final product. Their commitment to ensuring customer satisfaction was evident throughout the process.
The workflow was smooth and efficient, with the team always open to our requests and willing to make adjustments as needed. Their professionalism and creativity resulted in packaging that not only met but exceeded our expectations.

Deal Design provided subpar work and failed to complete the assignments we paid for, leading to a highly disappointing experience.
Our experience with Deal Design was far from satisfactory. We engaged them for several projects, including designing bottles for a skincare line, but their work was mediocre at best. For instance, they made a glaring error by placing the vertical text on the bottles in the wrong direction. This mistake was unacceptable, and my business consultant, who was instrumental in building the brand, refused to continue working with them after this incident.
Despite being paid for several projects, Deal Design never completed any of the assignments. Their inflexibility throughout the process only added to our frustration, as they consistently failed to meet our expectations. The communication was poor, and the overall quality of work did not align with what we were promised.

Deal Design consistently delivers high-quality, creative work that impresses our clients and meets every deadline.
Our collaboration with Deal Design has been nothing short of exceptional. From the start, they took the time to fully understand our clients and the products or services they offer, ensuring their designs are tailored to the target audience and market. Working with a dedicated team of 2-3 professionals, including a project manager as our main point of contact, along with talented graphic designers and content development specialists, we have seen outstanding results. Their work is consistently fine-tuned, effectively representing the products and reaching the target market with precision.
One standout moment was when one of our clients, who was applying for a national broadband provider award for smart city initiatives, was struggling with the design, layout, and graphs for a crucial report. Deal Design stepped in and delivered a design that not only met but exceeded expectations, helping our client win the award. Their ability to deliver such impactful designs, while maintaining open and responsive communication, has been a key factor in our continued success. Since partnering with Deal Design, we have not lost a single client, and our clients have been highly impressed with the quality and creativity of their work.

This was in no way a big project for them, but they still treated me as a top priority.
Deal Design, Inc. delivered a useful prototype within a month that met both our requirements and cost restrictions. Despite the project’s relatively small scale, their team was committed, communicative, and diligent. They designed a single package that worked for nine different products, integrating instructional diagrams, model numbers, sizing options, and other necessary details into a unified card. This streamlined approach allows us to identify each product easily before shipment.
Working with Deal Design, Inc. was seamless. I managed revisions between them and our product distributors, but their high level of communication and attentiveness ensured that there were no significant delays or issues. They took my basic design idea and transformed it into a polished package quickly. Their ability to listen, offer creative alternatives, and collaborate effectively made the process straightforward and successful.

Deal Design, Inc. has a really good vision for brand identity—they understand brand-building and being cohesive.
Although our business is still in the pre-launch phase, Deal Design, Inc. has been instrumental in satisfying our requirements and making us happy with their progress. They have been a solid base for bouncing ideas off of, which has led to more creative and effective work.
Their primary focus has been on creating our product packaging and logo. They’ve presented us with various design options and are now moving into website design, including setting up our online store and developing the sales funnel. Once the website is complete, they will begin SEO work to optimize our online presence.
We discovered Deal Design, Inc. through a recommendation from my business partner, who was impressed by their reputation in the brand-building space. Since starting our engagement in March 2018, we’ve faced some delays primarily due to funding and project hurdles on our end. However, Deal Design, Inc. has consistently delivered on time, and any delays have been minor and due to our own scheduling.
Though we don’t have metrics yet due to the pre-launch status, we are very pleased with their work so far. They have provided timely and professional service, offering valuable feedback on our ideas and suggesting improvements where needed. Their understanding of brand-building and cohesive design has been evident, and their insight into product storytelling and psychology is impressive.

They brought in vision, polish, and quality content to help us compete.
Deal Design dedicated significant time to developing a nuanced understanding of our brand identity and market. This dedication led to the delivery of well-curated content strategies and a high-quality partnership. The engagement evolved from supporting a rebranding process to launching a redesigned website and implementing digital marketing initiatives around the new brand.
Our relationship with Deal Design was unique because our company also specializes in web design. We worked collaboratively, with Deal Design providing the global design strategy and creative direction while our team handled much of the actual work. Their team came up with initial design concepts based on their recommendations and offered strategies for blog and content initiatives.
The quality of the experience was exceptional. Deal Design took a deep interest in understanding our business and market, avoiding formulaic solutions. Their research upfront translated into a powerful strategy for our digital content and communications. They made us think about ourselves on a larger scale, showing us how we could be competitive in different spaces and bringing vision, polish, and high-quality content to the table.

I appreciate their responsiveness.
Deal Design directed a successful engagement, delivering aesthetically pleasing stickers. The team supports an affable partnership, which I expect to expand in its scope. Their communicativeness enables effective collaboration.
For this particular project, the deliverables were stickers. Deal Design’s team assisted us by acting as a middleman to help us secure quality products in a timely manner. After I told them the sticker product we needed for labeling, they sourced the vendor and completed the work for us. We then only needed to pay and receive the shipments.
This project was great. We didn’t have particular metrics, but it was a success. We received the stickers, which look great. We’ll order more soon.
We communicate via email. We enjoy working with them and will keep engaging them for all sorts of different initiatives.

I loved the combination of friendliness and professionalism that Deal Design brought to the engagement.
Deal Design delivered a modern website and a sophisticated logo that serve as a solid business foundation. Providing valuable guidance and products, they expanded our social media followers ten-fold. The team was knowledgeable, prompt, and transparent, which advanced the final deliverables.
Using the logo that I initially created, Deal Design created our current logo. Their team elevated our packaging materials, aligning all of their deliverables with our brand values. We told them what we wanted, and they made our visions realities.
Deal Design developed our website on WordPress and created a seamless shopping experience for our customers. Their team linked everything back to a customer’s shopping cart, meaning customers can order from the homepage. On the homepage, there are three different points where a user can click ‘order now’. They built an about us page as well as blog and podcast pages for when we launch them. Their team created a tutorial video to help us make future edits.
Deal Design also connected the website with our email and Instagram. If customers want to connect with us, they can quickly. A friend found Deal Design through their Instagram and recommended them. I then looked at their website and had a consultation with David (Principal). I loved his aura, passion, and experience. As David had 20 years of experience in the industry, I felt confident that his team could make my vision a reality.
Deal Design created a clean and fresh website as well as a cleaner and chicer logo. Their team was able to communicate our focus on experiences. I’m proud of what their team created for us and believe it will have a major ROI. I would promote Deal Design and my website based on how it looks and my experience with Deal Design. I’m confident that our investment in their services set us up for long-term success.
Deal Design helped us grow our online presence. They grew our social media following ten-fold. When we started our Instagram profile, we had less than 100 followers. We now have almost 600 followers. Deal Design also made it so that we could sell our products in a nutritionist's office. That carried into more inquiries through our Instagram and email accounts.
We also made test shipments and received many positive comments on our packaging. I give all credit to Deal Design for helping us ensure that our colors and our logo aligned. I also loved their unbiased perspective. Their team effectively communicated when they did and didn’t think our ideas would work. They gave us different perspectives and suggestions to make it simpler. Their team helped us understand that less is more. They met every deadline and exceeded expectations. During the logo design process, my business partner and I wanted to add elements. Deal Design kindly made those edits. When we asked for their design opinion, they gave us an unbiased perspective that ultimately guided our direction. In the end, we’re happier with the final product.
Their whole team was personable and professional. They cared about realizing and elevating our vision. We relaxed during the engagement because we trusted them. We knew that their team was knowledgeable. That’s the key to a successful partnership. Trust is crucial.

As they have a lot of experience, their team is able to guide us through the entire process.
Over the years, I developed my own brands from my line of work. I’m creating a brand and came across Deal Design to help with the logo, packaging, and website artwork.
Deal Design helped create a brand for an instant coffee supplement. Their team conceptualized the brand’s colors, packaging concepts, and renderings for designs. They delivered all of the concepts for us to review and then we picked one brand concept. Deal Design then delivered all of the materials in various file forms such as Adobe Illustrator.
After that phase, their team was able to help us with packaging. They not only designed the actual packaging but also facilitated a relationship between us and a manufacturer to produce the bags. We’re now working with them on website design and development. Their team will work with ours to build the Shopify store we want.
We found them through a Google search and chose Deal Design because their team was the most experienced and qualified. Our initial phone call was easy because we were almost instantly on the same page. They had worked on multiple projects similar to ours and provided insights, unlike other companies. We felt comfortable and confident choosing to work with Deal Design.
Their team connected us with a bag manufacturer that was much more affordable than any other company we found. They deliver results on time. The quality of their work is great too. Their team is also responsive, even outside of business hours. Deal Design also goes out of their way to introduce us to people because it would be helpful for us to develop relationships with them.
We mostly communicate via emails and phone calls. Their team provides updates, sometimes without us even asking for them. They hit deadlines, but if a project may take longer, their team’s transparent about it. I’ve worked with companies that overpromise and underdeliver. Deal Design strikes a balance and sets spot-on expectations. It’s a relief to work with an honest company.

We are highly impressed by this team's organizational skills with very complex, multi-tiered projects.
Our catalogs contain extensive offerings, and Deal Design's team helped us manage the entire catalog process from start to finish, making a project that typically demands an enormous amount of my team's time very manageable. We needed a very professional team we could trust with our most valuable sales tools, and Deal Design's team proved to be trustworthy and highly competent.
Each catalog process has over 20 steps that need to be completed within tight deadlines, including data merge, pagination, design rounds, and executive reviews. Deal Design collaborated with us to map out the project and meet our aggressive deadlines. They supported us with the design of the entire catalog, organizing rounds of revisions and the final output.
Remarkably, we completed a large sales catalog in under two months, including all product shots, insertions into the catalog, marketing spreads, and several versions for different hemispheres. Achieving such high-quality work within tight timelines would have been impossible without Deal Design's team.
We have continued to improve our workflow together, making it a well-oiled machine. Deal Design's team has been very flexible with our Brixton crew, adjusting timelines to best suit our needs. Their project management has been easy-flowing and adaptive, further enhancing our collaboration.

Deal Design significantly improved our inbound traffic with exceptional service at an impressive price.
We needed a fresh, SEO-focused website to start capturing inbound leads. Having launched in 2018 with a fairly basic website, we required a revamp to match our accelerated growth. I interviewed several competitors, but their prices were exorbitant. When I connected with Deal Design, they were confident in their ability to deliver exactly what we needed at a great rate.
Throughout the project, Deal Design maintained excellent communication, providing weekly or biweekly updates on their progress. They submitted examples and requested approval before moving forward on significant aspects of the project. Despite our particularly picky and changing needs, Deal Design displayed remarkable patience and adaptability.
Working with a small team, including the CEO, was a great experience. They all contributed and shared their thoughts freely. The result was a significant improvement in our inbound traffic, and we've converted quite a few leads from our blog posts.

This approach helped shape our brand story and determine strategies for getting into retail stores and maximizing our Amazon and marketplace presence. He also focused on addressing both our immediate needs and longer-term goals.
At present, we haven’t launched the product yet, but we're finishing up the details of the initial launch. Afterward, we'll work on some refinements to get into retail platforms. Deal Design is also acting as a facilitator with our packaging company in China, serving as my point of contact for production.
I discovered Deal Design by reading reviews and reaching out to David. I felt comfortable with him due to the positive reviews about his company. Other clients were happy with their work, and their pricing was fair for what I was trying to accomplish.
We don’t have quantitative metrics like CTRs and conversion rates yet, but I've been pleased with the way we work together and the quality of their service. Deal Design’s project management is excellent. We communicate through emails and meetings on Zoom.
David rolls up his sleeves and works hands-on with his team. He understands his business and brings his expertise while still taking my feedback into account. He consistently thinks about the future, always taking another step forward from what I'm initially thinking.

Please introduce your company and describe your role within the organization.
Deal Design is a top-ranked and award-winning brand design agency with 25 years of experience specializing in Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) branding, package design, sales collateral, websites, and digital marketing to support start-up and emerging brands that are trying to bring products to market in Amazon, grocery, mass, club, convenience, drug, and specialty store channels.
As co-principals, Nancy and I (David) work directly with our clients and lead a team of 12 highly-experienced creative professionals to build brands that stand out from their competitors–becoming leaders in their categories.
What inspired the founding of your company, and what is the story behind its inception?
We met in design school and married shortly thereafter. We spent the next 4 years working for advertising agencies, marketing groups, and for CPG companies directly. When the tech bubble burst in 1999, and the economy went into recession, we decided to open our own agency and serve startup and emerging brands–delivering the same high quality work as big national brands receive, for a fraction of the price.
What are the core values and principles that drive your company's culture, and how do you ensure alignment with these values across your team?
Creativity: Design unique solutions and identities for our client and their products. Anyone can copy someone else. Our value is in designing a new creative approach that gets our client noticed and valued for their unique offering.
Innovation: It takes courage to develop something new, that does not copy someone else. People often misplace confidence in the comfortable feeling looking like a successful competitor, and that being a look-alike will bring business. It’s a recipe for disaster. It takes courage to boldly step out in a new and innovative direction within your category, and that’s what leaders do. They boldly go their own way. Leaders lead. Followers follow.
Pragmatism: We are in business to help our clients sell their products. This is the number one mission objective. No matter how beautiful or creative something is, if it doesn’t sell, then we failed at our mission. Our creative work needs to be pragmatic and ensure we achieve our client’s number one goal of sales rather than offer beautiful art for art’s sake. We are in the business of selling for our clients, not making art.
Individualized Team Service: The principals work directly with every client and supervise our creative team–bringing their 50+ years of combined experience to every project. By leveraging our expensive experience across hundreds of brands, we ensure the best possible outcome for every brand.
Can you highlight some of the key achievements or milestones your company has accomplished since its inception?
Every year. Deal Design develops creative solutions for 30+ brands, many of them being invented from scratch. Over our 25 years in business, we have won 10 prestigious awards from national and global organizations. Our clients have grown from startups to Fortune 500 brands, appeared on ABC’s Shark Tank, secured IPOs, and won global accolades.
Could you explain your company's business model? Do you primarily operate with an in-house team or utilize third-party vendors/outsourcing?
All our work is done by our in-house creative team with office locations in San Diego-California, Miami-Florida, and Port St. Lucie-Florida. We work on a per-project basis and offer discounted annual contracts for ongoing work.
How does your company differentiate itself from competitors in the industry?
At Deal Design, you work directly with our Principals, not a lower-level project manager. Our experience across every segment of retail (food, beverage, healthcare, cleaning, automotive, general merchandise, etc.) means we know how to sell anything–drawing experience from what has worked in other categories and similar products from our extensive experience.
How would you describe the dynamics within your team, and how do you foster collaboration and teamwork to achieve common goals?
Our team is 100% in-house, which delivers the utmost efficiency of speed and quality. Teams that work closely together produce higher quality work products. Our client’s sales are the ultimate validation of our work. When our clients are successful, we know we are successful.
What measures do you take to support the professional development and growth of your employees? Do you offer training programs or opportunities for skill enhancement?
All our employees are formally trained, many of whom have Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees (BFA) from prestigious institutions. We stay relevant by embracing, testing, and adopting new technologies and practices that keep our clients at the forefront of their categories. We make design decisions based on marketing research studies, including in-store shelve studies. We also stay on the latest software and techniques by attending the Adobe Max creativity conference annually.
Could you share a notable success story or case study that exemplifies the impact your company has had on a client's business?
We were engaged to develop the branding, packaging, and sales collateral for a new line of cleaning products by Miracle Brands USA called Miracle Wipes®. After developing the logo design, customized packaging, and sales presentations for the product line, the brand secured distribution in leading retailers nationwide including Sherwin-Williams, Home Depot, Lowes, Ace Hardware, WalMart, and many other chains. With over 10,000 retail location selling their products, the brand sold to a larger holding company within 5 years. It was a huge success. You can see our work in retail locations today.
What industries do you primarily cater to, and do you have a significant percentage of repeat clients? If so, what is the ratio of repeat clients?
We specialize in CPG companies in every product category. 70% of our business are in Food, beverage, consumer electronics, and skin care, and general merchandise. 30% are service-based businesses.
What initiatives does your company undertake to foster innovation and stay at the forefront of industry trends? Do you invest in research and development projects?
We are part of Adobe Systems (maker of Adobe Creative Suite Software) advisory group and are often contacted by industry investors to be part of advisory panels regarding technology trends for the creative industry. David Deal serves as an industry expert in the area of packaging design and trademarking. We test and evaluate new products that come to market to ensure we can deliver the best for our clients. We also Attend conferences online and in person also keeping our team on top of trends and time saving shortcuts.
Please share some of the most sought-after services that clients approach your company for.
We are most often contacted to develop new brand identities, brand style guides, packaging design, and product catalogs (print and online) for CPG products going to market.
How do you build and maintain strong relationships with your clients, and what mechanisms do you have in place for gathering and acting upon client feedback?
We usually experience a healthy and long-lasting relationship with our clients because we deliver the best results–a work product that delivers sales. By using consumer surveys and involving our clients throughout the process, we are sure to give consumers a product that want to buy.
How has your company adapted to changes and challenges in the business landscape, and what strategies have you employed to ensure resilience and sustainability?
We find that keeping it simple is the best business strategy. Focusing on delivery the best outcome for every project, regardless of the size and budget, is the best business strategy. When people receive good service, they tend to come back for more.
What payment structure do you typically follow when billing clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, or Pay per Milestone (phases, months, versions, etc.)?
We usually work on a fixed fee for service model. Progress payments are made at key milestones. Beyond the scope of a project, if additional work is needed, we bill hourly or engage with another fixed fee estimate if the scope is known.
Do you accept projects that meet your basic budget requirements? If yes, what is the minimum budget requirement? If no, what is the minimum budget you have worked with in the past?
We have a minimum $2000 engagement for a new project.
Can you provide an overview of the price range (minimum and maximum) of the projects your company worked on in 2023?
Our projects have ranged from $2000 to $145,000 in the past year.
What technological capabilities does your company possess, and are there any ongoing or planned investments in technology infrastructure or tools to enhance your services?
We have to stay current on the latest technologies since our services are built and maintained by software and computer hardware systems. We have to move at the speed of business.
Where do you envision your company in the next 10 years? What are your long-term goals and aspirations for growth and development?
We expect to continue the trend toward more digital-driven solutions and advertising. However, packaged goods will continue to be a big part of our business. No matter what digital format you use to find products for purchase, or how you buy them, a physical product is your end goal and those still need branding, labeling, and package design to act as the salespeople that are no longer present in retail.
