01Overview

Identity, collateral and site for a corporate firm that kept losing pitches to smaller practices with better presentation.

02The problem

Corvin & Reed advised on regional transactions from behind a template website and a logo that had been redrawn three times by three suppliers. Prospects researching them found nothing, and pitch documents looked assembled rather than designed.

The practice page leads on cross-border structuring and the mandates the firm actually wins
03What we built
  1. 01

    Position on the work

    We led with the mandates the firm actually wins (cross-border structuring and regulatory defence) instead of listing every practice area a firm could theoretically have.

  2. 02

    One system, print to pitch

    A single typographic identity applied across stationery, signage, engagement letters and pitch documents, so every touchpoint reads as the same firm.

  3. 03

    Depth that ranks

    Substantive practice pages and partner commentary written for the questions clients actually search, structured so search engines can read the expertise.

04The result

The firm now arrives at a pitch already credible, and inbound arrives pre-qualified from search rather than only through referral.

Do you have an idea, or a problem?

Either works. In my experience the second one goes faster.
