Is your brand all you want it to be?
You can have the most beautiful logo and colour palette in the world, but if your brand’s messaging, persona, profile and presence isn’t strategic, artful and consistent, guess what? People aren’t going to pay attention or deeply connect. That’s where our Toronto brand strategy studio comes in.
What you really need is a strategic, layered and artful brand identity that provides a strong foundation to build from while also being flexible enough to evolve as you grow. GOOSEBERRY will help you take your brand to contender level status so you can resonate and engage with
your audience while focusing on the work you love most.

YOU STRUGGLE TO SAY
WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY
It all makes sense in your head because you know your subject matter inside and out, but being able to get others to understand your brand clearly leaves you fumbling. You need help breaking it down.
YOU DREAM OF BUILDING
A BRAND THAT BECOMES BELOVED
Filled with catch phrases, signature products and a creative presence that builds a close-knit community and gets people talking. You want to build a legacy that people will love for years to come.

WHY IS BRAND STRATEGY IMPORTANT?
CUSTOM SOLUTIONS AVAILABLE TOO
Hi, I’m Laura!
Before creating Gooseberry Studios in 2013, I worked as a multi-brand Web Editor for Canadian Living, Style at Home and ELLE Canada. I also spent many years as an Editorial Coordinator for various print magazines, building entire publications from scratch and managing the content as titles became available nationwide.
Now I build and manage brands of all shapes and sizes, helping entrepreneurs across industries bring their vision to life in a palpable way for audiences to experience and fall in love with. And I write The Gooseberry Review.
In many ways, my magazine roots are infused into my brand development style. A brand is like an ecosystem – everything within it needs to serve a larger purpose and connect memorably with the desired audience.
I want people to land on your brand and think, “Wow!” right away. I want people to excitedly tell their friends all about what you do. I want your brand to leave a lasting impression that will make the world a brighter place.
Blending strategic sensibilities with creative juice, I work tirelessly to ensure that your brand stands out. Let’s make something special!
