Catherine Moon
Symantec, Director

"I had many ideas for my new business. Working with Clearworks on a naming and branding strategy helped me congeal all those ideas into a solid business identity so that we could move forward with logos, web design and beyond. Clearworks facilitated a naming and branding session with a variety of fun and productive exercises. It was an enjoyable experience for the entire group that exceeded everyone's expectations. Clearworks synthesized all the output from the session and wrote a comprehensive branding and positioning overview that has been useful in grounding our work as we progress in building the business. Kudos to Clearworks!"
