Hullabaloo is a graphic company with bags of experience working with all sorts of people.

From local companies, to national and multi-national brands, we believe that we are different.

Different because we deliver creative design solutions through innovative thinking and a real passion for making projects come to life. 

Hullabaloo are a creative company delivering all kinds of visual communications for some of the world’s leading companies and organisations.

We also work for dozens of smaller organisations that you will probably never have heard of – but of which we are just as proud.

As a marketing agency, we deliver creative campaigns and brand support including logo design and corporate awareness.

We also offer a wide range of information based design and digital agency services - providing multimedia solutions from websites to e-comms, video presentations and online training hubs.

We have a highly creative team of graphic designers, who deliver all kinds of visual communications for some of the world’s leading companies and organisations.

These include blue-chip clients in the UK, Europe and China - but we also deliver creative design solutions for many smaller organisations locally in Loughborough, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and the East Midlands.

Some of these you will probably never have heard of – but we are every bit as proud of them! 

At Hullabaloo we listen to customers and understand your brief from everyone's point of view.

We then think about what the key objectives are and how they can be achieved.

We apply our creativity and experience to find a great solution, using our skills to make this stylish, memorable and effective.

Above all, we simply make sure that we deliver what we promise. 

Branding design (or Visual Identity, or Brand Corporate Identity or just plain old Company Logo Design – take your pick) was once brilliantly described as ‘an outward sign of an inward commitment’ – and like the clothes we wear, our facial expressions, or the tone of voice we use – it says a great deal about how we see ourselves and how we would like to be seen.

Your branding is the most memorable representation of you and your business, it is this brand or logo that makes you instantly recognisable, and it should inspire the appropriate emotions in your target audience.

It should command authority yet represent your business appropriately. Hullabaloo works closely with you to make sure that your brand identity design will hit the mark, every time.

We work with all sorts of companies - from start-ups and small local businesses, through to international blue-chip brands - and all sorts of challenges - from creating a new brand, or evolving an existing one - to simply helping to manage and police an identity as brand champions.

As a creative company, most of Hullabaloo's work still comes from personal recommendation.

We have been working with many of our clients for more than 10 years – and some for much longer. 

Hullabaloo are working with a wide range of clients throughout the world to create websites, movies, apps and training platforms.

We take pride in ensuring our digital projects are not just a technical excercise (although we have that covered) but a communication tool - less about the technology, and more about planning and delivering your message in the best and most effective way.

We help clients to make use of these digital platforms - training and supporting them - as well as creating the tools and websites they are using.

We help them to understand the challenges, and how to get the most from their digital communications - but also how to cope with the limitations of these solutions and how to back them up with printed media and conventional channels.

But what does that mean for you? It means we can help you decide what the best route is for you - digital or printed - and you don't have to worry whether we are recommending a website just because that's all we can do.

Here is how we work:

Briefing

We have been providing a full service Graphic Design approach to clients for more than 20 years. This has taught us that the first and most important part of any job is simply to sit down and listen to the customer.

That’s how we get to know them and the way they think, learn all about both the product or service they offer or the message they want to convey, and define the specific requirements of their brief.

Design Concepts

Once we’ve taken the brief, we will go away and prepare a range of ideas for the client in our Design Concepts.

This is the stage where we think about the brief, kicking it around  between us and using our creative focus to understand the project from all the different points of view. Our customer, your customers – even the competition and the wider public.

We then brainstorm ideas of what we could do with the project, and find the creative direction we want to suggest. From this we will create a range of design concepts, and visualise these up to a level that will enable us to discuss them with you and give you a clear choice of how the communications will look, along with any ways in which we believe the brief can be made to deliver more – and their cost implications.

Although we present a range of ideas, we usually have a preferred option, and we will explain how we came to that solution and talk you through our thinking on each option.

In most cases clients will agree with us and choose our preferred option – but we never put forward solutions that we don’t think work, and the important thing is to find a solution that works for you.

Finished Design

Once we are all agreed on a direction, it’s time to deliver. We work to finalise costs and deliver all the items you need to make your communications a success.

From copy writing to photography & illustration, we bring together all the elements into a finished mock up that lets you see what your communications will look like, and make sure it’s exactly right before we proceed to production.

‘Artwork’ and Proofing

Once everything is agreed, we provide you with detailed proofs so that you can check all the detail, and make sure everyone is happy with the content before we finalise artwork for production in whatever medium is required.

Production

Delivering your communications means finding the right production resources for your needs – whether it is printed or electronic . We can arrange everything for you through our wide-ranging network of approved suppliers – all delivering high quality but cost effective results.

Alternatively, where you have existing and proven relationships with your own suppliers, we will work closely and constructively with them to ensure a successful delivery.

Build on success

We are committed to long-term relationships with our clients, and we will be ready to respond quickly and effectively as both practical day-to-day support, and as brand champions for your organisation.

This involves working with your team to plan and produce innovative and creative solutions – from websites and advertising to training materials and exhibitions.
