Uncle Ike's

Facing stiff competition and price wars, Ike’s was tasked with standing out the old-fashioned way: through elevated design and visual execution. However, due to the nature of selling a controlled substance, LCB laws are quite strict and limiting on what media cannabis businesses have access to and the content of those marketing efforts. Lastly, Ike’s other business entity, Uncle Ike’s Bottle Shop (a retail store that sells beer, wine, and spirits) was also in need of regular creative marketing solutions. This amounted to a large volume of design needs they’d have each month, ensuring we’d have our hands full with their various requests. To that end, we set Ike’s up with a monthly graphic design retainer to deliver quality design deliverables.

When we say “WOW is what we aim for,” it’s always nice to actually hear it once in a while. Our Ike’s contacts were thrilled with the work we delivered, passing along comments and praise they were receiving from staff and customers alike. In fact, they frequently expanded our scope to include new projects, like creating a custom neon sign display or 4/20 graphic tee. Over the nearly 2-year design retainer and social media management contract, we helped elevate their brand to a growing Seattle audience and increased their market share.
