Green Compass is raising mental health awareness, creating communities, and connecting people to resources. They do this by providing opportunities and experiences — like concerts, events, and outdoor activities.

When the founder came to us with the beginnings of her vision, we started with a series of brand strategy sessions to lay a strong foundation of language. She articulated her mission and values and we worked together to determine brand tone, and the name of her new nonprofit.

In Green Compass’ pre-launch phase, we created a website landing page to encourage email signup and designed consistent social media graphics for all their channels.

‍

Mental health is my passion and purpose; and bringing a nonprofit to the Triangle to raise awareness and support has been a goal of mine. The care, time, energy, and hard work Dustin and Tara have devoted in helping make Green Compass a reality has been more than I could have imagined. Literally, nothing but “goodness” from this team.

Hear It Straight From Our Clients
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

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

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.

The care, time, energy, and hard work Dustin and Tara have devoted in helping make Green Compass a reality has been more than I could have imagined. Literally, nothing but “goodness” from this team.

Whitney Jones

Founder, Green Compass

I absolutely love my logo and colors with my branding! Tara and Dustin really understood what I was going for with my mission and goals. I’m so proud of it and feel like their services have set my company up for success. Definitely worth the investment!

Lisa Vance

Owner, Grow Together

We could not have met and surpassed our goal without the help of Goodness. We wanted to participate in Giving Tuesday on Facebook, but were overwhelmed by all the details and knowledge required to plan and execute well. Tara came in and made the process so smooth, relayed our message perfectly, and handled the crazy speed of the campaign when it went live. Because of Goodness, so many lives in Haiti have been impacted for the better.

Elizabeth Brown

Admin, Hope for Haiti Foundation

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

The brand looks amazing! I am so excited about how the logo will look on my new website.

Alix Guthrie

Owner, Mint Modern Home

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.
