It was for David Kibbe and the team at Indiana Trust Wealth Management. They chose the #brand strategists at Force 5 to be their guides as they developed a fresh, modern brand for the next step in their journey. The result: a brand they can proudly share with clients and the wider community that elevates every piece of communication they put out--whether through web, written, or video content.
Hear directly from David and let us know if your brand is ready for a refresh. Or if you have a new brand, we can help you start strong, too!
