What branding agencies in Des Moines publish about price

People ask what this costs before they ask who is good. Here is the split this site actually uses.

The estimate

Typical industry estimate, not a quote from any firm on this list.

These ranges are not an average of firms in Des Moines. On a profile with no published price, the line reads: Estimated: $8,000–$25,000, typical for Des Moines branding projects; not a quote.

• Identity for a small company: $8,000–$25,000. A mark, color, type and a short set of templates. Naming may or may not be included.
• Strategy plus identity: $25,000–$80,000. Positioning and messaging first, then the visual system and the guidelines.
• A system for several products or locations: $80,000–$250,000. Sub-brands, templates and rules other teams can apply. Rolling the system out is usually later.

Prices firms on this list have published

One Branding. Its inquiry options list project budgets of $2-10K, $10-30K and $30K+.

A published price belongs only to the firm that posted it. It is not a quote for your job. Compare proposals on the same written scope. A lower monthly number that leaves out production, media, or the person who does the work is not a lower price.

Nobody pays to be ranked. Publishing a price does not move a firm up the list, and leaving a price off does not move them down.
