FAQ
Everything you need to know before getting started.
What are your core services as a design and branding agency?
At Brainbox, design is never just about visuals — it’s about clarity, usability, and long-term value. We started as one of the early web and digital design studios and evolved into a full-service branding, web design, and digital solutions agency.
Today, our work spans branding, website design, eCommerce, UI/UX design, and custom digital platforms. We help businesses build new brands, refine existing ones, and modernize websites, products, and user experiences.
Our team handles the full process in-house — from strategy and UX planning to visual design, development, and launch. Depending on the project, this may include brand identity design, user experience design, UI design, prototyping, custom WordPress or eCommerce development, and ongoing support.
We also provide creative production services such as graphic design, illustration, 2D/3D visuals, motion elements, and content support when needed. SEO best practices are integrated into our web projects to ensure strong technical foundations, though SEO can also be handled as a separate service if required.
What makes Brainbox different from other design agencies?
We believe long-term partnerships matter more than one-off projects. Many of our clients stay with us for years — not just because of design quality, but because we’re reliable, transparent, and easy to work with.
You work directly with our core team, not account layers. Senior designers and technical leads are involved in every project, ensuring consistency, attention to detail, and realistic execution.
Unlike agencies that separate branding, UX, and development, we bring everything together under one roof. This allows us to create designs that not only look good but actually work — technically, strategically, and commercially.
Our experience ranges from startups to established companies, which allows us to balance creative agility with structured, professional project management. Everything we design is built to scale and age well, not to be redesigned every year.
Do you work with clients in different locations and time zones?
Yes. Brainbox is based in Glendale, California, but we work with clients across the U.S. and internationally. Over the years, we’ve collaborated with teams in different time zones and have built smooth remote workflows to support that.
We use structured communication, shared project tools, and clear timelines to keep projects moving efficiently. Meetings are scheduled with time-zone differences in mind, and we prioritize responsiveness and clarity at every stage.
How much does a typical project cost?
Project costs depend on scope, complexity, and timeline. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pricing, because every business has different needs.
We offer flexible engagement models, including fixed-price projects, phased builds, and ongoing retainers. After an initial discussion and project brief, we provide a clear proposal outlining deliverables, timeline, and cost.
For businesses that need something more straightforward, we also offer structured website and eCommerce packages that cover the essentials in a cost-effective way.
Do you work with startups and small businesses?
Absolutely. We work with startups, growing businesses, and established companies alike. Startups often come to us for branding, MVP websites, or eCommerce launches, while larger companies rely on us for redesigns, expansions, and ongoing support.
We understand budget realities and growth stages, and we help clients make smart decisions that won’t limit them later. Our goal is to build strong foundations that can evolve as the business grows.
Can you redesign or improve existing websites or platforms?
Yes. Many of our projects involve redesigning or improving existing websites, eCommerce stores, or digital platforms.
We focus on usability, performance, clarity, and scalability — not just aesthetics. Depending on the project, this may include restructuring content, improving UX/UI, modernizing the visual identity, optimizing performance, and rebuilding the site on a more flexible platform like WordPress or WooCommerce.
