Your Oakland Business Looks Like Every Other Business in Oakland
We don't deliver logos. We deliver brand systems: logos, usage guidelines, color palettes, typography, voice — everything a Berkeley business needs to look like the Oakland market leader.
Branding Near Berkeley
Your brand is the sum of what people think when they hear your name. For most Berkeley businesses, that sum is "fine" — forgettable. CodeWCG builds brands that create a distinct impression: a positioning strategy that differentiates you from Oakland competitors, a visual identity that communicates quality before a single word is read, and brand messaging that resonates with your actual customers. We don't design logos in isolation. We build cohesive brand systems.
The visual identity work CodeWCG delivers for Berkeley businesses includes everything you need to apply your brand consistently: primary logo and variations (horizontal, stacked, icon-only), color palette with specific hex, RGB, and Pantone codes, typography system with usage hierarchy, and a brand pattern or texture if appropriate for the Oakland market. These aren't decoration — each element is chosen to communicate something specific to Technology & Software and Healthcare buyers.
We deliver files in every format you'll actually need: vector source files for print and large-format use, web-optimized PNGs and SVGs for digital, and color variants for different backgrounds. You own them outright. No licensing, no coming back to us just to change a phone number.

Branding Near Berkeley — FAQ
What does a full brand identity project include?
At minimum: brand strategy (positioning, target audience, competitive differentiation), logo and visual identity (primary logo, variations, color palette, typography), and brand guidelines. We can also include business card and collateral design, social media templates, and messaging frameworks. Scope depends on your needs.
How long does branding take for a Berkeley business?
Brand identity projects typically run 6-10 weeks: 2 weeks for strategy and discovery, 2-3 weeks for initial design concepts, 2 weeks for revisions, and 1 week for final deliverables and guidelines. We keep you involved throughout, not just at the final reveal.
Can you rebrand my existing Oakland business?
Yes. Rebrands are often more complex than new brands because we have to manage equity in your existing brand — what to keep, what to evolve, what to kill. We do a brand audit first, then develop the new identity with your existing customers and recognition in mind.
Do you work with startups or only established Berkeley businesses?
Both. Startups often need branding most urgently because they're making first impressions. Established Oakland businesses need it when growth has outpaced their original brand or when they're repositioning for a different market. Different situations, same process.
