@mikesmith187 You’re 100% correct. It’s all smoke & mirrors. Once paid for it, got nothing in return. I get more traction posting stuff myself. 572 views · 4 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@mikesmith187 Not a fool. There’s a PR and affiliate marketing apparatus that is more like performance marketing. Most design studios would never interact with paid media, only earned media. Lesser known studios than yours are constantly trying to game search results through S 575 views · 8 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

One thing that no one talks about on here is press. As a small studio I literally refuse to pay for press. It seems so weird to me for instagram curation accounts to ask for money to post?

@Calendly @gavinpotenza Overall, our goal was to help @Calendly evolve a bit and design a brand that felt peaceful and soothing. There's always a push and pull when you're trying to design something that doesn't feel too designed.

@Calendly @gavinpotenza Another concept that we kept coming back to was this idea of flexible connection. I set times that work for me, you pick a time that works for you. It’s the definition of flexible. So we landed on what we called a flex bubble (just a more client-friendly 5.1K views · 47 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

@Calendly @gavinpotenza When the team started designing out the brand we were super attracted to this idea of patters. They kinda abstractly represented the idea of meetings on a calendar. And like each person you meet—each pattern could be different and dynamic. @gavinpotenza v 7.6K views · 68 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

@Calendly For the wordmark, we just wanted to make it feel a little bit less cutesy and give it some harder edges, especially in the Y.

@Calendly But speaking of the logo, this one was harrrrrrrrrd. They weren't changing the name because of the solid equity they had in it. But that made our job that much harder, because any symbol you put next to the word Calendly just felt wrong if it wasn't a calendar.

@Calendly Calendly was coming to us not just for a new logo, but an entirely new positioning. They had finessed and perfected the art of scheduling a meeting, but after 13 years they were like wait, why don't we try to build ALL the tools that businesses need?

A few years ago, we started using Calendly, and it was infinitely better. So when they asked us to work on their brand h 481.8K views · 3.3K likes · 212 reposts · 245 replies Open on X →
