The visual identity created perfectly symbolizes my vision and conveys the clean, minimal, tranquil brand that is Grace Spa.”
- Grace Mahoney, Owner
Grace Spa
Grace Spa is a full service hair salon and day spa, launched in 2015 by long-time Jackson local Grace Mahoney. Grace is an expert in beauty, but needed an experienced brand agency to help bring her vision to life in business cards, signage, and online.
CHALLENGE
Owner and founder Grace Mahoney opened her eponymous spa after years of building a following of faithful clientele while working at other local spas. As she branched out on her own, she was looking for strategic guidance to develop a unique brand proposition within a competitive local spa market. The visual solution and new brand voice that accompanies this new marketing strategy has to feel accessible, gender neutral, calming, and natural.
SOLUTION
Creative Curiosity worked hand in hand with Ms. Mahoney starting with strategic sessions to refine the target audience, identify a new location, and optimize the service offering. A brand positioning statement and brand strategy report included proposed marketing tactics to get business through the door.
