The Brand Sprint: a complete, ready-to-launch identity in 14 days for $4,500 flat. No discovery phase that discovers nothing. No decks about decks. You get the work, you launch, you go sell something.
Strategy and big ideas first. What your brand means before what it looks like.
Logos, type, illustration, packaging, apparel. Drawn by hand, finished to ship.
Web, social, and motion that carry the identity into the digital realm intact.
FIXED SCOPE FIXED PRICE FIXED DEADLINE
Half to book the slot, half on delivery. That’s the whole contract.
Primary mark, secondary mark, lockups. Hand-finished, not template-assembled. Works on a billboard and on a sticker.
A typographic system and palette chosen for your world, with exact files and specs so everything you make after still looks like you.
A tight, usable PDF. The rules, the don’ts, the logic. Built so a future hire or printer can’t screw it up.
Social templates, profile assets, and three hero applications of your choice: packaging mock, merch, signage, deck cover, whatever moves your business.
You own everything. Vector, layered, organized, labeled. No hostage situations, no licensing asterisks.
A real one, with my full attention, not a death spiral. The fixed scope is why the price and the deadline hold.
Day 1 — The Sit-Down. One 60-minute call. You talk, I listen, I ask the questions agencies bill three weeks for.
Days 2–5 — Concepts. I go dark and come back with two distinct directions. Real explorations, sketched and built by hand, not mood boards.
Day 6 — You Pick. One call. You choose a direction and give notes. Decisive, done.
Days 7–12 — The Build. Full system gets built out: marks, type, color, guide, launch kit. Your revision round lands here.
Day 14 — Delivery. Everything packaged, organized, and handed over with a walkthrough. You launch. I cheer from the cheap seats.
I’m John Gagliano, the art director behind Crystal Trip Studio. I’ve led creative for a boxing brand, run my own menswear label into Bloomingdale’s and Saks, painted murals, built activations out of the back of a step van, and shipped work for some of the loudest brands in culture.
When you book a sprint you get me. Not a junior team “supervised” by me. Not an account manager translating your notes. The person whose name is on the work is the person doing the work.
Because most of a six-month agency timeline is meetings about the work, not the work. Twenty years in, I know what good looks like and I get there fast. The deadline isn’t a compromise, it’s the product.
The single round is structural: it forces good decisions from both of us. If you genuinely need more after delivery, additional rounds are available at a posted day rate. Nobody gets ambushed.
Yes, as a follow-on. Sprint clients get first priority on web builds (WordPress, WooCommerce, the works) at a fixed add-on price. Brand first, always.
Founders with something real: food and drink, fitness, fashion, music, hospitality, anyone who needs to look like a serious player without an agency-sized budget. If you’re pre-idea, wait until you’re not.
Because each sprint gets my full attention for two weeks. That’s the math. When the month is booked, you go on the list for the next one.
Email me what you’re building and when you want to launch. I’ll reply within one business day with the next open slot.
