We begin to connect and invest in stable, long-term relationships with our clients, which takes strategic research and planning. Research and Development also referred to as “R+D,” is the initial stage in our process for branding and design.

This stage involves the assessment of a client/customer’s current and future needs by asking questions for their views and feedback as well as carrying out market research. Many skip this process and regret it later! We are firm believers of having knowledge and wisdom in order to move a project forward.

You ever heard the expression, “Don’t dive in head first?” Although the metaphor originates from swimming, the idea is not to approach your project haphazardly. We approach everything systemically and strategically based on our findings from the initial R+D stage. At Risa, we don’t have a microwave-ready approach, but one that is custom tailored to your taste-buds. In the end, you are able to enjoy that satisfying delightful meal (i.e. your newly branded product or service) that you will not be disappointed with. Consultation is worth every penny, so feel free to reach out to us as we can help you maximize your marketing and design goals.

Evangelism. That can be a strong word for those that are spiritually faint; however, a nuance to the word “marketing.” When you think of evangelizing a brand it is to quicken it’s spirit and appearance, so that others can be drawn to the product or service. A brand evangelist is a true fan, someone who wants to talk about and share your message and get involved in any way they can. We bring your brand up to a level that gains the respect and recognition of your target audience. It is more than just design, but being able to transform the former identity into the new one. That is a process that is challenging; however, it is above and beyond rewarding! We are willing to undergo that process with you!

I'd like to take a moment to thank Risa Associates for the amazing job that they have done in coming up with a logo for our non-profit. The design was simple yet filled with deep meaning. The logo embodied the very message we wish to convey. We considered other design options but Risa Associate's vision was aligned with the message of our ministry. We are very happy with the logo and will be using it for years to come.
