Collateral, Logo

Edwards Mill Bar & Grill has been part of the Raleigh community since 1999. This restaurant is all about comfort food and friendly service. 

When Eschelon Experiences purchased the business from the original owners, they wanted to keep the brand true to its heritage while breathing some fresh air into the look and feel. They started an interior refresh of the space – new artwork, furniture, and flooring – while we partnered with them to create a new brand identity. It needed to be southern and pay homage to the actual namesake mill. We crafted a new logo, menus, and business cards. 

We developed logos, an identity system, food and drink menu design, business cards, and iconography for this Raleigh restaurant.

Julio Bermudez

President, Architecture, Culture and Spirituality Forum

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

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

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

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

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.

Rebekah Beck

General Manager, Raleigh City Farm

Starting a new advisory company with a business partner, we could not be happier with our decision to have Goodness develop our website. Tara and Dustin exceeded our lofty expectations. They were diligent and professional, creating a world-class design to meet our vision. The execution was also efficient and fun – leading to a flawless launch. Virtually all of our contacts and friends lauded the quality of the site. Our experience could not have been better and we strongly recommend Goodness for all your needs. If you want to learn more about our experience, please contact me. Hire Goodness without hesitation.

Charlie Taben

Partner, Wall & Main

From our first email to the launch of our new website and brand identity, Goodness was very, very good to us. Dustin and Tara have this crazy intuition for people and brands, and they know how to articulate and pull out the best in each of us. We wholeheartedly believe our brand and website genuinely reflect who we are and what we aim to accomplish with our customers. Thank you, Goodness!

Stephanie Brooks

Operations Director, FiveStar Awards & Engraving

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

I have worked with Goodness for multiple years now and they are invaluable to our business. They have helped our business seem like a much bigger company than it actually is. They designed our website and social media and have continued to think about how it could be improved and updated as our business grows and evolves. They always deliver on what they promise and it always exceeds our expectations. It is hard to find people that take such pride in what they do and we couldn’t be happier.

Matt Spitzer

Founder, Triangle Hemp

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

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.
