Whether you’re in need of a brainstorm or a complete brand overhaul, we specialize in brand analysis, identifying untapped market space, brand positioning, target consumer identification, competitor analysis and creative brand strategies.
Our process centers around brand discovery and is designed to highlight and identify what makes your brand unique, so we can bring those attributes to the surface. We start with a review of your brand or business, we learn your history, we identify your strengths, weaknesses, and goals and we create a road map for success.
From there we analyze the competition, define your target customer and carve out your white space: the untapped segment of the market that you can leverage and call your own.
The end result being powerful, authentic and consistent brand identities and strategies.
Knowing who your brand is, who your brand wants to be, and what your brand will stand for is crucial to differentiating yourself from your competition and establishing your position in the market.
We work to detail a clearly defined picture of your brand, your product promise, your mission statement, buzzwords and branded terminology. This set a solid direction for the brand and allows you, your staff internally, and agencies like ours to work on behalf of your brand with clarity and direction.
Learn more about our brand discovery processAs the east coast’s premier mountain resort, the Stowe Mountain Club sets a new bar for rustic elegance. When this members only clubhouse needed a logo and branding suite that would represent the best Vermont had to offer, they turned to Four Nine Design.
The club wanted to feature a cowbell in the branding to pay tribute to Swiss ski racing heritage, as slopeside spectators have rung a cowbell during ski races throughout the history of the sport. We played up this aspect as we developed the master logo, a suite of secondary logos, a color palette and brand standards.
The branding is featured across various applications throughout the club and resort.

View the Client Case StudyThe ski industry is full of enthusiasts who dream of developing a revolutionary product or changing the industry, but more often than not their idea has either been done before or the dream fizzles out before it sees the light of day - but not in the case of Renoun.
As a young start up brand founded in 2011, Renoun had quietly developed and launched a revolutionary ski technology. For Renoun, product development came easy, but navigating a way to introduce and position the brand within and industry of established competition was not as simple. That when Four Nine stepped in to lend branding and positioning expertise.
We began with a brand immersion and target consumer id. From there we established the visual direction and positioning, and worked with the client to develop their overall marketing strategy which included ad campaign development, graphic design, photo & video shoots, and a website.
