How we level up your brand.
Building a strong brand is one of the best ways to build trust, make crowdfunding easier, and justify higher pricing. It’s not too late,
STEP ONE
Brand and Customer Audit
We’ll sit with you 1 on 1 to understand your goals and ambitions for the brand, where it’s working and where it’s not, and develop a better understanding of your customers and peers.
STEP TWO
Brand Identity & Guidelines
We’ll refine or update your existing identity and bring all the work you’ve already done into a framework that will help you make better, faster decisions with less risk and more confidence.
STEP THREE
Put your Brand into Action
With the framework in place, we’ll rework your site and write copy that reflects your new brand, your ambitions and drives success. This sets up a home for your brand.
I know what it’s like to run
a gaming company
I’m Andy Davis, founder of Adada Design and for the last 5 years, I’ve also been building my own gaming company, Dodecadonuts.
I understand just what it takes to create a company in the gaming industry and how critical branding can be to setting yourself apart.
A great brand transforms your business into a recognizable, trusted friend, allowing you to command higher prices, build lasting customer loyalty, and stand out in a crowded market.
I learned about business, branding, marketing and more working with brands like Google, Microsoft, Visa and many more. But after years of working in the corporate world, I was burnt out. Too many banner ads. Not enough fun.
So I decided to apply that knowledge to the gaming world when I started Dodecadonuts and rediscover my passion. I had to figure out how to apply my skills to a whole different set of problems in a whole new industry.
Now I want to use those same hard-won skills to help you do the same thing so you don’t have to do it all yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Some of our most frequently asked questions:
Q: Why should I care about my company brand? The game brand is the important one.
A brand is more than a logo. It’s a framework that includes values and visual assets, goals and ambitions. And in the context of your business, it includes all of your games. Powerful gaming brands like Leder Games or Stonemaier Games are able to build strong reputations that allow premium pricing and easier sales. So while the game brand is important, you shouldn’t ignore the larger, master brand.
Q. Why shouldn't I do this myself?
Developing a brand is much like any skill. You could do it, but it will take longer, likely include errors and will probably cost more in the long run. I have over 20 years of experience in not only building brands, but leveraging them for business success. I’m also doing this for myself with Dodecadonuts, so I know it works.
Q. How do you handle revisions? Or additional needs?
I work hard to set projects up for success, with milestones where we are all satisfied with the work before we move onto the next stage. Ideally this means that there are minimal revisions but I will continue to work with you until you’re satisfied. If there are additional needs, like booth design,collateral or other support, I’ll provide an estimate and timing and we’ll work on that basis.
Q. How long should this take?
From the initial audit to the final site, this process should take between 6-8 weeks. Our meetings should take about 1 hour when we are reviewing work or working through the audit. I usually try to return revisions in 2-3 business days. Regardless, I will always set a realistic schedule and hold to it.
Q. How does pricing work?
The Gaming Brand Builder has a fixed price and all work involved is covered by it. I ask for a 30% deposit at the start of the process and another 30% before we build out the brand guidelines. The final payment will be due at the end before the final handoff of the site.
Q. What types of gaming companies do you typically work with?
If you’ve raised $30K or more in crowdfunding, have more than one game in production and have ambitions to create a sustainable long-term game company, I’d be very interested to talk with you about how I can help.
Q. What if I'm not satisfied?
If you're not satisfied with any part of the process, we'll continue to work with you until you are.
