Collateral, Logo, Strategy

Just like a car’s drivetrain gets your vehicle moving, DriveTrain Learning accelerates sales teams towards their goals.

When owner/principal Michael first talked with us about DriveTrain Learning, his company was just getting started. He knew he wanted a logo that echoed his passion and know-how for the account management world. We’ve built an identity inspired by classic cars and the eagerness of those muscle engines. 

Over the years we’ve continued working with Michael to grow a cohesive brand including print collateral, iconography, web design, and podcasts.  

Strategy  

Our strategy process helped the DriveTrain firm up their brand values and mission, as well as get a clearer picture of their competitive landscape so they could stand out to their ideal customers. We unpacked some helpful language, like their “art-of-selling” approach.

Logo & Identity 

Loyal and trustworthy — this identity was designed to help DriveTrain’s clients know they are in capable hands.

Graphic Design 

As the company grew, they needed custom iconography to represent each of their main service areas. We developed branding that was cohesive with the parent brand for each subset. Marketing pamphlets, business cards, social media channel profile images, and assets for their powerpoint presentations were also developed to keep everything consistent.

Creative Services – Podcasts

We’ve produced multiple podcast series with custom music soundtracks and transcribed content for DriveTrain. Podcasts create deeper bonds with your audience, and invite them to be connected with your brand’s story. Our process included: pre-production consulting and episode flow; day-of production and recording; and post-production editing, mixing, and mastering.

Hear It Straight From Our Clients
They intently listen to what we’re looking for and ask questions to make sure they understand the vision we have. They always come back with something original and creative. Their work is the quality of a large marketing and design firm, but it comes with the personal attention that only a small business can provide.

Margaret Hartzell

Director of Development, North Carolina League of Conservation Voters

We hired Goodness to revamp our cocktail bar and what a splendid job they did! Our package included naming, brand id, logo, and a menu design. On top of that, we got plenty of content ideas and strategies to direct our marketing plan. With Tara’s background in restaurant concepting and launching and Dustin’s keen eye for current design trends, they were a perfect match for our mission. Through breezy exercises, their thoughtful approach to brand identity made the soul searching process easy and digestible, and now we can embrace our bar with pointed clarity. Thanks to the Goodness team!

Sarah Chung

Owner, Hearsay

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Tara and Dustin to revamp our website. The process was so collaborative and they managed to get to know our work, our team, and our ethos in a way that was reflected back in the final product. They met every deadline and exceeded every expectation, and they are just delightful people to work with.

Emily Sutton

Waterkeeper, Waterkeepers Carolina

Once we launched my new site, I started getting emails from potential clients—I rarely got website leads before. I know that a well-designed, up-to-date website helps my business get new customers. I’m glad that I placed it in the caring, confident hands of Goodness. They made me feel taken care of.

Deb Zechini

Owner, Order In The House

I hired Goodness to assist me in rebranding my law firm and building a new website. Tara and Dustin helped me complete these tasks and so much more. Goodness helped me sharpen my vision for Davis Legal and launch my new branding/marketing with a clear strategy. My experience working with Goodness could not have been better – Tara and Dustin are innovative, kind and very professional. I refer everyone to them and will continue to do so!

Morgan Davis

Founder, Managing Partner, Davis Legal

Goodness has outstanding know-how skills and delivery seamlessly integrated with high-quality personal engagement. They work directly with you and offer products, services, and solutions that match your needs. They are always available and respond to any urgent matter in a timely and effective way the first time around! They are great designers who produce beautiful, compelling, and working content. They also provide advice on a variety of fronts. My organization and I are very happy with Goodness and will highly recommend it to anyone.

Julio Bermudez

President, Architecture, Culture and Spirituality Forum

Tara and Dustin are really nice people. They are also very good at what they do! They took the time to understand my business and that brought clarity for me also. The process they use was really clear and made me feel supported. The final website was excellent and just what I wanted and needed. I highly recommend them.

Andy Patron

President and Principal Consultant, Helps

As customer oriented as they come, Dustin sought to understand what we were planning with our business. He captured the insights he needed to build our brand for us. And he NAILED it! Logos, color palette, website, even background music to our blogs. We look forward to many years partnering with him and his team!

Michael Hillan

Owner/Principal, DriveTrain Learning

We had a LOT of content and weren’t sure how to display it all on the page. Dustin took our dreams and Pinterest board and turned it into a well-organized thing of beauty.

The Marketing Team

Marketing, Edwards Mill Bar & Grill

I just want to take this opportunity to say what a fantastic job Goodness has done for us. For over four years our staff has been working to produce the professional-quality, co-branded, consistent materials that their team has delivered. We have worked with other local and national design/marketing firms and no one else has been as thorough, productive, cost-effective, and just plain old fun to work with as Goodness. We are very fortunate to have them as a key business partner.

Buddy Gupton

President, Jones Insurance

Great experience from beginning to end. From sketching out my ideas of the big picture to tailoring a brand that worked to attract the right people to Good Human Dog Training, Tara and Dustin felt like old friends from the start. They really got to know me and what I do. Can’t go wrong with this dream team.

Jennifer Thornburg

Owner, Good Human

I can honestly say that they are the most kind, generous, and talented professionals I have had the pleasure of working with. They are fully committed to the best work they can put forth because they truly love what they do. They want to see the businesses and nonprofits they work with succeed in effectively and efficiently communicating all aspects of their brand.
