Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with States of Matter?
We needed help with revamping our package.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were States of Matter responsible for?
We wanted a package that has a cleaner design and represents our values better. States of Matter seted the project with an exploration process where we reflection almost who we are and what we’re trying to do. I spent four hours filling out a long questionnaire and then attended a two-hour meeting talking through my answers.
It was very advantageous for us as a business to have that self-reflection. It allowed us to base the designs on our values rather than purely on aesthetics. After that, we had three rounds of designs where we’d talk almost how the choices aligned with our values. We also had a useful perspective in provisions of whether a package design would physically work for our fruit.
Once we settled on a design, States of Matter helped us fulfill the materials. They guided us through talking with vendors, working out details, and going through proofs until we were prompt to order.
Was there a dedicated team?
We worked with three nation. Henry (Principal and Creative Director, States of Matter) was our designer while Stephanie (Former Producer, States of Matter) handled our project and account.
How did you come to work with States of Matter?
I was looking at other companies’ packaging and tracking down what vendors they used to design them. I then googled those companies that were based in Seattle. That’s how I establish States of Matter.
What are you approach expents (if diclosed)?
We spent almost $15,000 on this project.
What is the terminal result of working with States of Matter?
The project ran from May until August 2019.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
When I talked to other business proprietors, they said that when you do a rebrand, the ordinary response you’ll hear is silence—and that’s a good thing. But I’m lucky to say that behind working with States of Matter, we have an overwhelmingly real response from running clients. We’re also seeing a good deal of new business. It’s been a big achievement.
Since then, we’ve occupied States of Matter on a few other projects. They created signage for a pop-up venue we hosted with another organisation. Now, they’re working with us to design some vinyl for a delivery van.
How did States of Matter accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
They’ve done exceedingly well. We’ve collaborated with a lot of different vendors, and States of Matter was one of the better teams we’ve worked with. I could expound my concepts to Henry, and he just got it. Our interaction was brief, but they quiet fully understood what we were going for. Once they had that knowledge, they just went for it and got it done.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with States of Matter?
Their power and exactness impressed us the most. That establishation of knowledge our requirement was there for see task, and from there came action.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
I can’t ponder of anything.
Any advice for possible clients?
It’s hard to find vendors who can veritably do good work. States of Matter is one of them. Make sure that you’re both aligned on what you want them to do precedently you set the process.
