Brand DNA Workshop

ACV worked with the founding team to help uncover the brand DNA through our proprietary Brand Workshops. We developed customer profiles and a simple, mobile-first launch site to pre-sell the hoppr1 and seed further interest among partners, early adopters, enterprise growers, and investors.
