Project Overview
"Communication, clarity, quick responses. Clearly you are excellent in your field."
We were discouraged and disheartened by our website and social media to the point where we avoided looking at it.
Before Working with Alia
Salt Rock's audience craved community, quality products, and personability. They wanted to feel like they were a part of something special and needed easier ways to stay in Salt Rock's loop.
We needed to create a brand that was friendly and warm, as well as feeling professional and high quality. We also needed to make sure people had an easy time finding Salt Rock's pop up locations and an easy time getting their unique chocolate order.

The Strategy
"We were blown away by your solutions to our problems. Your service brought us up from amateur to professional."
Based on the strategy, we created a color palette that would allow for both high contrast (to get a professional look) and warmth (to enhance a friendly feeling.) The font suite is clean yet slightly texturized, giving a hand-made, quality feeling. We also incorporated black and white photos to give the brand a layer of timelessness.

The Branding Process
"Trello was great! Upon first glance I was intimidated but it only took a few tries to fully understand the platform and its efficient flow."
How did you feel about Trello and the project management process?
First we created a clear aesthetic direction for the website, giving multiple options that aligned with the brand strategy. Then we built the entire design in Figma. This allowed us to get a clear picture of the whole site's cohesiveness, user experience (UX) and branded feeling without worrying about functionality. Then we developed the site in Squarespace, adding in functionality, animation, SEO and a mobile layout.

The Web Design Process
"Cannot think of a single thing that needs improvement. You and your business are perfection! We could never thank you enough!"
Is there any feedback you'd offer on how I could improve my services?
DO IT. You will be shocked by Alia’s skills and insights to how the public view your business.
She will point out things you never even thought of and provide ideas for enhancing aspects of your business.
She provides options every time so you can choose what vision best suits you.
