Albie's Brand Design

Albie's Foods

Albie's, a Michigan company that produces calzones, breadsticks, and sandwiches in a nut-free environment, aimed to refresh their brand while highlighting their services for schools. Cultivate carried out a comprehensive brand strategy that encompassed key messaging, taglines, and the naming of their calzones and breadsticks line. This was followed by the creation of a visual identity, multiple photoshoots, and a new website that captures the brand's youthful and flavorful approach to food. Albie's now encourages school Food Service Directors to “Bring yum to the table” through vibrant, dynamic designs and lifestyle photography that showcase the brand’s energetic and playful essence.

The Boxcar Children Rebrand

Boxcar Children

Since 1919, Albert Whitman & Company has been publishing award-winning children's literature. Among their collection is The Boxcar Children series, originally released in 1942 and cherished by many generations. We collaborated with the Albert Whitman team to fully rebrand the series, revitalizing it to attract a modern audience. The tagline “It’s more than just a mystery” emphasizes that while The Boxcar Children books are full of excitement and adventure, they also provide deeper value. We created promotional materials that presented the series in a fresh and engaging light, perfectly timed for its 75th anniversary. This effort was instrumental in launching a new series of books, which sold out before the holiday season and contributed to a 40% increase in overall sales, alongside opportunities for streaming and television adaptations.

Ozinga

Ozinga is a family-owned business now in its fourth generation, specializing in concrete, materials, logistics, and energy solutions. For more than 90 years, Ozinga has been delivering top-quality products and exceptional service throughout the Midwest and beyond. Since 2005, Cultivate has been Ozinga's main marketing partner. Embracing challenges and eager for growth, we have collaborated on a rebranding initiative, numerous brand awareness campaigns, and the creation of two custom apps: one that enables Ozinga's customers to place and track their material orders in real-time, and another that has become one of the most popular material calculators in app stores, accumulating over 1 million calculations since its debut. Our efforts contributed to Ozinga's expansion and growth through acquisitions, as many companies reached out after discovering the company's values showcased in their marketing. Additionally, Ozinga saw a consistent rise in inquiries from top talent for various positions, from drivers to executive roles, with Marty Ozinga attributing this success to the brand work.
