Branding as good as the products you design
Experienced brand strategy and brand execution for outdoor and lifestyle products.
Building brands that customers will love to love.
BOLT was created to collaborate with like-minded outdoor & lifestyle design professionals to bring branding expertise to their work that is on par with their skills.
Where’s the brand?
Great products don’t always have an obvious brand story. Assuming the product concept was born from a genuine place, it probably just needs to be uncovered or clearly organized.

No more finger in the wind
Defining your products’ brand strategy will inform the creative work and guide the overall business as it grows, ensuring your customers become raging fans.

“We worked with Bolt to help one of our clients create their foundation brand work, including brand name, logo and story. Erik nailed it and came up with such a great package that really brought the whole brand to life.”
Mike Fisher

“Besides always showing up with great work, Erik is fun and easy to work with. Around here, he’s known as Easy-E.”

“Erik was the keystone in our rebranding initiative. He had an entire vision for what the new name and rebranding would look like across the entire organization, and he made the design flexible enough to adapt to our other needs.”
