Our process
A Strategic & Streamlined Approach
At Elbongurk Design, we build cohesive, strategic brand systems for premium craft food and beverage brands. Our process ensures every brand is thoughtfully developed, seamlessly executed, and positioned for success.
Being my first time doing anything like this Jillian took the time to answer all of my questions and explain processes. It was such a pleasure working with Elbongurk, I will use them for all of my future design projects.
Behind great design is even better thinking. Let's go deep, discuss your company, market, and goals so we can build an action plan for your brand. We price our services in clear, flat-rate packages crafted for brands ready to invest in strategic design and thoughtful execution. This approach ensures clarity, predictable investment, and design built to support long-term growth.
step 01
Fit Call– Let's Talk About Your Brand
Every project starts with a conversation. This no-obligation 30-minute call is a chance to:
- Get a clear understanding of your brand’s current challenges and future goals
- Explore what kind of branding and packaging support makes the most sense for you
- Determine whether my process aligns with what you need
By the end of the call, you’ll have clarity on whether this is the right approach for your brand and what the next steps could look like.
step 02
Brand Plan– The Critical Step Most Brands Skip
Investment: $3,500+ (Credited Toward Brand Out)
Most branding fails because companies jump straight to design without a strategic foundation. The Brand Plan ensures that doesn’t happen. This is a deep dive into your brand, its positioning, and its path forward.
What’s Included in the Brand Plan
- Business & Market Insights – Analyzing your competitive landscape and brand opportunities
- Brand Positioning & Messaging – Defining what makes you different and how to communicate that
- Brand Architecture & Product Strategy – Clarifying how your brand and product line fit together for long-term success
At the end of this process, you’ll have a clear strategic foundation and an execution proposal tailored to your brand.
step 03
Brand Out – Strategic Design Execution
We offer three Brand Out engagement levels, each designed to translate strategy into a cohesive brand and packaging system aligned with your business goals. Your Brand Plan will include a clear recommendation for the appropriate Brand Out and a defined scope of work.
- Lean & Focused - A tightly scoped engagement for brands with a clear product strategy and positioning, focused on a defined set of deliverables. ($15,000+)
- Strategic & Scalable - A comprehensive engagement for brands preparing to scale, expand distribution, or build a repeatable packaging system. ($25,000–$35,000+)
- Full-System Branding - Our most comprehensive engagement, designed for multi-SKU brands with complex portfolios or ambitious growth plans. ($40,000–$70,000+)
Each package is designed to deliver a fully realized brand solution, not just a design.
