Strategy

Working with the Oi team is not just about creating documents and materials. It is about building a relationship with partners focused on our personal and business success. Their expertise, passion and thoughtful approach has not only enhanced our marketing strategy, but has also been instrumental in bettering the lives of our clients.

As we began to think about launching our new Accounting Firm one of the most stressful tasks we had to figure out was how do we brand ourselves and who can help us hit the ground running? After all we are a bunch of accountants so marketing and creativity is a foreign language to us.  Studio Oi came to the rescue and exceeded anything we could have imagined. Pia and her team took charge from the get go. The made us feel comfortable with their understanding of our needs and goals and were extremely caring and responsive along the way. As we went through the process of figuring out our brand, including name, logo, look, and presentation, Studio OI gave us the options we needed to make great choices. Fast forward to our official launch and everything that goes into getting a firm running, our branding was already in place and making a huge impact.  I would say not a week goes by that I don’t get an email from a friend or other professional resource complimenting our brand and asking us how we came up with the name and logo. We have Studio Oi to thank for that among other marketing materials that continue to get rave reviews. I cannot thank the team over at Studio OI enough for taking what felt like a difficult task and turning it into a huge success opening new doors for our firm all the time. I cant wait to see the impact Studio Oi will have on its other current and future clients.

We found Studio Oi to be incredibly creative while helping our firm with our marketing/design efforts. While they have the experience and expertise of the large firm, most importantly, they are a small firm at heart and it shows throughout their creative process. They really got to know our firm on a personal level which we found to be a key differentiator that translated into their wonderful design product that was truly customized for our needs.

Studio Oi is one of the most creative and responsive marketing teams I have ever worked with in my thirty years in education. They completed insightful and uncanny research on our organization and executed a bold rebranding plan that took us to another level. We continue to work with Studio Oi on a week to week basis as brand, marketing and communication partners. It is a joy to work with them.

We had the pleasure of working with Studio Oi over a few years on our TEDxSantaBarbara project. Studio Oi's team guided us through the brand design of our theme, the creation of elements to support that theme, all the way from web assets to printed signage onsite. More importantly, their energy and passion for our project permeated everything they did. We would frequently do live video calls to sort out just-in-time details and deadlines, even though they were in Australia, and we were in Santa Barbara - the tyranny of distance was never an issue with us. They also helped us think strategically about the long term brand we're building here in Santa Barbara, underneath the TEDx umbrella and we sincerely appreciated their wisdom and sage advice.

Studio Oi is passionate about my brand! They created the visual look and feel for my company and I love it! They really took the time to unearth what T2T means on every business level and understand who I was and what I was trying to achieve. They created an outstanding landing page and a very sexy yet easy to navigate website. The brochure they created for my business, Transform2Thrive.com is captivating. She involved me in every stage of the process and assisted me in creating T2T's company branding, collateral, copywriting and website. I have recommended them to numerous associates so they too can benefit from their experience and skill. Great sense of humour, exceptional results - an asset to my business!

I am writing this very sincere recommendation for Studio Oi. It is my tradition to honor, as best I can the people who have inspired me to bring out my true skills, abilities and passions for promoting the right people to important actions. Studio Oi has been this to me from the very first time I met them at a Pacific Coast Business Times event. There are only a few people I know who can take a message to the masses and get the kind of results a client is critically seeking. Studio Oi ranks in my top trusted advisors in this arena. The one example of many is the results they obtained for "The Spirit of Small Business". They are a "Game Changer" in any project they are involved in.

I hired Studio Oi at the last hour to develop a really important pitch for me to give to the ELT of an enterprise beverage company. The resulting presentation was creative, logical and engaging, yet it was brief and very compelling. Most importantly that pitch got my startup a term sheet with a credible investment offer from a world class company. To say Studio Oi, “know how to make it happen”, is an understatement. I believe that Studio Oi and have a formula that can be a game changer for their clients! I’m a believer, I’m a fan, I highly recommend!
