Starfish helped us create our new brand, including a new logo, brand identity and brand guidelines as well as a new company culture (vision, mission, values, and behaviors).

Right after launching our campaigns with Disruptive, we saw results almost instantly. Our monthly revenue jumped from about $50,000 to over $70,000. Every key Google Ads metric improved, and by November, we were already nearing $550,000 in revenue, well on track to hit our $700,000 annual goal.

Product Design Review from Manuel Colom
Working with ANML on the Yummly app experience and the Yummly Smart Thermometer (IoT) was an outstanding collaboration. Yummly combined personalized recipe discovery, meal planning, and guided cooking into a highly curated food experience, while the Smart Thermometer extended that ecosystem into connected cooking with real-time temperature tracking and assisted preparation workflows. As Director of UX at Yummly, I worked closely with ANML throughout both initiatives, and they operated almost as a seamless extension of our internal design team. Their work consistently demonstrated excellent design craft, strong product thinking, and a highly collaborative mindset. Beyond delivering high-quality UX and visual design, their contribution helped sharpen and strengthen the overall value proposition of the products by making complex cooking experiences feel approachable, premium, and intuitive for users.

Web Design Review from Nathan Thornburgh
As Anthony Bourdain's partners, we were approached by CNN to create an immersive digital site that would provide a beautiful home for each destination covered by Bourdain's show Parts Unknown. It was a huge task not least because there were already close to 100 destinations to integrate into a usable global site. But also because the site was meant to live up to the beauty and aesthetic of the television program. And it needed to be done in a way that satisfied both our mainstream luxury advertisers (like LandRover, ANA, and more) but also the famously high standards of Bourdain himself. ANML engaged in this 18-month design and build process with outstanding workmanship and creative decision-making. They navigated wildly different and demanding stakeholders. And in the end they built a site that still looks fresh even nearly a decade later. If you want to make lasting work, there is no one else I could recommend more.

Web Design Review from Alex Lacerda
We partnered with ANML to evolve our digital experience in a way that stayed true to our brand while modernizing how we present our products and story. As a company with a long history in music, it was important to find a partner who could respect that legacy while helping us move forward.
ANML took the time to understand our brand, our audience, and the role our products play for musicians. They built on our existing foundation and translated it into a more cohesive and intuitive experience that better reflects who we are today.
Their team brought strong thinking across UX and design, helping us improve how content is structured, how products are presented, and how users navigate the experience. The collaboration was smooth and highly responsive throughout.
The end result is a more polished and modern experience that still feels authentic to our brand. ANML was a thoughtful and reliable partner, and we would highly recommend them.

Frequently Asked Questions About a Creative Agency
What services do these agencies in the US offer?
Creative marketing agencies in the US offer a comprehensive range of services that help businesses capture audience awareness and engagement. The most common services include:
Branding: Crafting a business’s visual identity, including its logo, color palette, typography, and brand icons.
Graphic design: Producing printed and digital materials for a brand, including posters, presentation decks, annual report layouts, and signage.
Marketing and advertising materials: Creating graphics and animations to promote a brand, including social media posts, paid ads, and digital storefronts.
Web design and development: Building a company’s website and its accompanying landing pages, so that it’s intuitive, engaging, and fully functional.
Video production: Developing commercials, social media videos, onboarding videos, and other video content, and often involves scripting, recording, and post-production services.
Experiential & event marketing: Designing tradeshow booths, conference materials, and AR/VR experiences to attract and engage attendees.
Many agencies bundle these services, so strategy, design, and production stay aligned across channels.
How do creative agencies in the US differ from marketing or advertising agencies?
Mainly, an American B2B creative agency focuses on the production aspect of the content, while marketing and advertising agencies prioritize distribution.
However, many marketing and advertising agencies have an in-house creative team and vice versa, helping projects stay on task and budget.
Here are more details about their differences:

How much do creative marketing agencies in the United States charge for their services?
They typically charge at least $100-$500 per hour or $2,000-$5,000 per month. The final rates will depend on service type, scope and complexity, agency expertise, and project timeline.
Here's a rundown of rates per service:

Visual identity: $5,000-$25,000 for color palettes, typography, imagery style, and accessibility checks
Full brand strategy: $20,000-$100,000+, including visual identity, messaging, tagline, guidelines, and brand campaign materials
Website design and development: $5,000-$15,000 for a basic custom website; however, enterprise builds can range between $50,000 and $200,000+
Video marketing: $2,000-$50,000+, depending on production quality, video length, and required talent and equipment
Marketing materials: $2,000-$10,000+ per month, depending on type and number of deliverables
Infographics: $600-$3,000 per piece, depending on deliverables, required research work, and number of revisions
What is the typical process when working with these companies?
Most creative engagements follow a structured workflow designed for more efficient workflows and feedback loops. A common process looks like this:
Discovery and Strategy 2-3 weeks
Conducting stakeholder interviews and defining goals and success metrics
Auditing existing assets
Analyzing the target audience and competitors
Determining positioning, messaging pillars, and creative direction
Concept development 1-3 weeks
Submitting rough drafts, design studies, or proof of concept
Conducting workshops
Execution & production 2-8+ weeks

Revisions & QA 1-3 weeks
