Brand Development and Website

CliniStart is a new company specializing in specific administrative aspects of clinical trial startup and management. They came to Signal for development of their branding, messaging and website, with the goal of cutting through the clutter and clearly presenting their unique value proposition with a friendly tone.

Following interviews with the company’s executive team, we drafted a message platform to map out the CliniStart brand messaging and what makes the company different. From this approved document, we organized and composed website content with a dash of conversational flair. The services page is based around simple, declarative statements and interactive icon boxes. Subheads throughout the site capture the leadership’s wry observations on their unglamorous work in contract negotiations and protocol budgeting. For instance, “We love to do the boring stuff so you don’t have to,” and “Extremely dull work, done extremely well.”

Signal also reworked the company’s logo with a more modern and professional look, expressing the CliniStart’s foundation in knowledge and technology aimed at forward progress. The logomark features dots networked together in the configuration of “play” button, creating associations with the start of a clinical trial.
