Carter Black is a brand and creative studio. Strategy first. Craft always.
Carter Black is a brand and creative studio. Strategy first. Craft always.
Brand positioning, naming, voice. The decisions everything else obeys.
Logos, design systems, guidelines. Built to be used, not admired.
Hand-coded sites and digital homes. Fast, owned outright, no templates.
Immersive campaigns and experiences that show up in the world and hold the room.
Decades in the game. We've led brand work for national names and built systems for businesses just getting started. The size changes. The standard doesn't.
Government contract discovery for small businesses. It scans SAM.gov and state portals every morning, scores every opportunity against your certifications, and starts the draft.
We built it because we kept finding the right RFP two days after it closed. Now the morning digest does the looking, a fit score does the sorting, and a real team runs it, everything up to submission. Founding clients are onboarding now.
From playlist to crate. Cue & Crate turns the music you stream into the records you own, and points you to the stores where you'll find them.
Built by a collector, for collectors. Catalog by scan, sync your Discogs library, read liner notes written for your records, and find the shops near you. On iPhone.
28 years of brand strategy — award-winning work for foundations, Fortune 500s, and stages from Jill Scott to Run-DMC.
Two decades of growth and client leadership — campaigns and launches for everyone from Microsoft to the NFL.
One conversation. No deck, no pitch. If we can help, we'll tell you how. If we can't, we'll tell you who can.
