BIG RED ROOSTER

This is a little story about one of our favorite clients of 2016: Big Red Rooster products.

He wanted to build a toy company from scratch. Brian had years of product development experience, and a very ambitious go-to-market strategy.

He had developed a large pipeline of products, and this logo and his company name were his only marketing assets.

The first product lines would be the children’s alarm clocks seen below. While the plan was to start with children’s products, the plan was to offer adult consumer electronics as well.

We began the project with over a dozen store visits and many customer intercepts at retailers that he hoped to sell into.

The first round of design was focused on branding, and we delivered 5 different concepts, as you’ll see in the following slides.

Brian ultimately decided on the “Retro” concept seen below, but he wanted to keep his existing brand mark.
