As a family owned company, Blended Waxes has been producing various styles of wax on an industrial scale since being founded in 1976 by Clarence "Junior" Gereau. A little known thing about Junior was that he also created a special formula of wax that he personally used to waterproof his leather boots. This recipe was recently found and the family decided that it would be a great tribute to their late grandfather to create a brand and share that product with the world. Our task was to create a brand for Junior's Boot Wax that would feel authentic and rugged, just like grandpa's true style.

Step one was to evaluate the competitive landscape on Amazon which was the e-commerce platform Blended Waxes was intending to utilize. This would ensure that we would develop a solution to truly differentiate them from the other options out there.

A strategic path for the packaging identity was chosen and our team of creative directors and designers developed a logo design, packaging system, and brand voice that had enough foundational strength to set the stage for additional branded assets as the product went to market.

Junior's Boot Wax has been selling consistently on Amazon and has led Blended Waxes to expand to selling on the Etsy platform as well. Currently, the product is only sold online but there are plans to add retail to the distribution channels since there has been very positive feedback. Due to the solid foundation that was created for the visual identity, it will be a much smoother process to develop merchandising items or other collateral pieces as needed in the future.

As a family owned company, Blended Waxes has been producing various styles of wax on an industrial scale since being founded in 1976 by Clarence "Junior" Gereau. A little known thing about Junior was that he also created a special formula of wax that he personally used to waterproof his leather boots. This recipe was recently found and the family decided that it would be a great tribute to their late grandfather to create a brand and share that product with the world. Our task was to create a brand for Junior's Boot Wax that would feel authentic and rugged, just like grandpa's true style.

Step one was to evaluate the competitive landscape on Amazon which was the e-commerce platform Blended Waxes was intending to utilize. This would ensure that we would develop a solution to truly differentiate them from the other options out there.

A strategic path for the packaging identity was chosen and our team of creative directors and designers developed a logo design, packaging system, and brand voice that had enough foundational strength to set the stage for additional branded assets as the product went to market.

Junior's Boot Wax has been selling consistently on Amazon and has led Blended Waxes to expand to selling on the Etsy platform as well. Currently, the product is only sold online but there are plans to add retail to the distribution channels since there has been very positive feedback. Due to the solid foundation that was created for the visual identity, it will be a much smoother process to develop merchandising items or other collateral pieces as needed in the future.

Updating the brand of the oldest business in Wisconsin still owned by a legacy family member, was not to be taken lightly. What we liked best about working with Quill was their respect for the past, while still forging a current brand strategy, supported with great creativity, to help us grow for another 100 years. It’s a very open and transparent relationship with great communication along the way.

We needed an identity to match our level of expertise & professionalism and Quill was the perfect team for the job. Most pool liner companies have the same old-school approach when it comes to branding & design, but Quill was able to breathe some fresh air on to this outdated, industry-standard style. From the clean, calming color palette, a creative new logo and unique website design, to our awesome new work vans, Quill gave us the exquisite “glow-up” we have been dreaming of for a long time.

The Quill team was excellent to work with on our branding project. We were starting from scratch with no existing identity, but also had multiple stakeholders with vested interest which could have complicated the process. Ryan and the team were able to listen to our needs, research the limited examples in the market, and create something that reflected our asset. I greatly appreciated their ability to work with our project manager to keep things moving, but also the ability to present to the greater committee for feedback and approvals.

The team at Quill Creative was invested in my visual identity design from the moment I contacted them. Taking time to understand ISW and my vision was their first concern. The remainder of the process was timely, fluid and incorporated my feedback, and each team member I met was engaged with the product/concept they were delivering to me. I'm thrilled with the final results of ISW's updated Visual Identity brand.

Over the last year I've had the pleasure of working with Quill Creative Services to refresh the brand of my family's business which is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2021. On a scale of 100 for expectations I’d humbly give Quill a score of 200… The discovery, creative and implementation stages could not have gone smoother from my perspective as your typical/busy business owner. Quill invested the time to truly understand my company's history, personality, character, products, services and most importantly our customer base.  The end product has taken our brand to a level that I frankly believe to be genius.

A little known thing about Junior was that he also created a special formula of wax that he personally used to waterproof his leather boots. This recipe was recently found and the family decided that it would be a great tribute to their late grandfather to create a brand and share that product with the world. Our task was to create a brand for Junior's Boot Wax that would feel authentic and rugged, just like grandpa's true style.

Step one was to evaluate the competitive landscape on Amazon which was the e-commerce platform Blended Waxes was intending to utilize. This would ensure that we would develop a solution to truly differentiate them from the other options out there.

A strategic path for the packaging identity was chosen and our team of creative directors and designers developed a logo design, packaging system, and brand voice that had enough foundational strength to set the stage for additional branded assets as the product went to market.
