Testimonials

Brand Force 5, was an absolute pleasure to work with, the creativity combined with professionalism brought our project to life. They kept to the timeline and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy.

Michael, at Brand Force 5, created an amazing tribute image to honor a colleague. He was detailed in his communication and work, and the finished piece is spectacular.
— Amy Zavadil

For years I struggled with how to position “Coach Cane” as the man behind the City Coach curtain. BrandForce 5 provided guidance in both the art, as well as the branding strategy, so that I didn’t undermine the existing company, but still elevated my profile. Every time I thought I came up with a clever idea or asked a question, Michael was a step ahead of me. I felt involved and respected the whole way, and knew that Michael understood what I was trying to do, and how to execute it.
