Brand & Website Design for a Coaching Practice

Firebird Summit

Firebird Summit is a coaching practice led by Alora Chistiakoff, an ICF Associate Certified Coach and Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach who works with entrepreneurs, leadership teams, and managers, with a particular focus on front-line and new managers.

Alora came to DesignGood after twenty years of leading consulting practices for technology organizations, ready to build a coaching business around a strengths-based approach to leadership. She already had the name Firebird Summit, and she wanted a logo, copy, and a website with the same energy as the way she coaches.

We designed the logo and visual identity, wrote the copy, built the website, and extended the brand into email marketing. It is brand and website design for coaches and consultants, and the language we wrote for Firebird Summit centers on helping leaders run their business instead of being run by it.

After Alora made the decision to take her business in a new direction, she asked DesignGood to help. She already had a name, but she wanted a fresh, bold logo, website and copy to match her character and capture her approach to coaching. Alora uses strengths-based tools to help her clients identify their superpowers. She let us put our own superpowers to work in reinventing Firebird Summit.

Who This Brand Was Built For

We build brands for coaches and consultants who have done serious work in business and are ready to teach what they know, whose practice needs a look and a voice that carry real authority. Firebird Summit had to speak to entrepreneurs, leadership teams, and newly promoted managers who are tired of being run by their own business, and to give each of them a reason to trust Alora before the first conversation. This project gave her a brand that sounds as direct and energized as she does in the room.

What Changed for Firebird Summit

Alora Chistiakoff spent twenty years leading consulting practices for technology organizations, and somewhere in that time she found that helping individual leaders grow was the part of the work she did best. She earned her coaching credentials, built a practice around the Gallup CliftonStrengths assessment, and chose the name Firebird Summit for the business she was starting.

What she needed next was a brand that looked and sounded like the way she coaches. Her clients are entrepreneurs, leadership teams, and managers stepping into leadership for the first time, and they would meet Firebird Summit on a website long before they met Alora. The name had arrived, and the look, the words, and the site still had to be made.

DesignGood created a bold logo and visual identity, and a presentation of the mark carried the words Redefine, Reinvent, Transform. We wrote the copy around Alora's strengths-based approach and her promise to help leaders run a business instead of being run by it, then built the website and email marketing to carry it all in one voice. Each piece was designed so a visitor could tell within a few seconds that this is a coach who has led teams and knows the pressure that managers and founders carry.

Today Firebird Summit has a brand that matches the energy of its founder, a site where a manager or a founder can see exactly how coaching with Alora works, and language she can use anywhere she talks about her practice.
